Does anyone know of any organizations that plan on going to Pocono FUSA this season?

Nesba normally does at least one.

I did the FUSA with Nesba in 07...IMO it's a horrible track, the front straight, bank and back straight were great, but running through the infield in the turns was awful. It was by the track that i've seen the most crashes in one day. Plus they treat bike like crap up there...it's all about the auto's. I won't do Pocono's again :headshake:

I couldn't build any confidence on that track.

Wow. That's unfortunate. I ran FUSA last season with STT and had an absolute blast. I didn't notice any serious crashes, in fact, there weren't really that many. Of course, there were only 25 riders in the three groups. Less overall riders less crashes maybe. The infield was dirty d/t the weekend prior being a Nascar weekend. At first I thought it was a terrible track but by the afternoon I couldn't get enough of it.

Did you ever hear about the condition of the guy they lifelined?

No I didn't, he ran into the wall turning onto the back section. That track just wasn't for me at least when I ran it in 07' the infield track section was junk IMO.
