Food

Free (for racers) pulled pork, burgers or veggie burgers. Non-racers are welcome to enjoy the food, but we do ask that you consider a donation. 185lbs of pork is getting smoked just for the occasion! For the non-pork lovers, we’ll also be grilling burgers, dogs and veggie burgers. This year, our pit master is bringing along some of his own hand crafted sauces to complement your savory sandwich.

Food will start being served between 12:30 and 1:00 pm.

Swag Drawing

With lots of good sponsors, we’re going to have a loaded swag table. As always, we will hold our swag drawing after the Beginner racers have finished racing. No one likes to listen to us pull number after number out of the bag of people who’ve already gone home. So this year, we’re doing things a bit differently. You’ll find a 2-part raffle ticket stapled to the back of your number plate. Notice, the numbers on the ticket correspond to the number on your number plate. This is so we can call your name when we pull the ticket, rather than just a number.

-Listen for the announcements over the mic.

-At 3:30 pm, we’ll start announcing that its time to drop your ticket into the drawing box.

-Remove the unstapled part of the ticket from your number plate and bring it to the announcers table (MMBA tent). There will be a box available for you to drop your ticket into.

-At ~4:15, we’ll start the prize drawing.
