Damn, fine looking scoot. Do you have the 310 on the floor Bart?
I have the TXC310 on the floor. I have been invoiced another TE310 so it should be on the floor soon.
I think Doug Stone has around 20 hours on a 310 and so far it has been great.
Still have not got the payout schedule. Talked to the rep today about it. Told him the series is starting and we want to see it. He said the ladies are working on it.

Kind of related, but is Husky paying anything to the BJEC?

I may have to come out of retirement and race one of these pretty bikes. I may need some after market goodies to bullet proof it. Who can hook me up?

More info for this topic. Husky pays out 400 per race for AA and A for 1st place and 500 if you take home 1st for the year. Thats pretty awesome! Could pay for most of a brand new bike.

I just wanted to point out that in that payout list, this is what is budgeted for FMHSC:
$122,400
That ladies and gentleman is HUGE support from a manufacturer.
Yes, there are other companies that offer payouts in some of the National Series. Yes, there are some that payout from a dealer or local shop area. Those sponsors are the ones that help keep the local series going. But...this here is HUGE for the amatuer ranks, not just the AA row. Look at the payout for the back half of the rows. That's still $200 1st place payout. Are you KIDDING ME?
Anyone who has posted anything not in line with this being very positive and big for our series and one of our local shops, who if you recall donated a lot of cool swag for the banquet, please moderate yourselves. This isn't a thread about which brand you're loyal to, or which shop. It might not be for you, but it absolutely will be for some out there. This is essentially Husqvarna saying "If you want a bike deal like the pros, here's your shot." If you were to pull off a perfect season in A, like how Travis Anderson did a few years back, you'd have $6500 in you pocket, they had a TCX250 on the show room floor at Donnell's last Saturday for less than that. This doesn't even apply to 2012 models only, so if you've got one be sure to sign up

The 2012 program is retroactive to January 1, and applies to model year 2010 and newer.

Mr Stone rolled in the shop with a few bucks to spend. Husky money has started rolling in for him. Walked out with a new helmet, oil and oil filter. He was a happy camper. If he could make the top step of the box, he would be real happy.

I have a feeling that will happen soon enough.
Mr. Stone is just starting to get his mojo back.

Nice job Doug! Judging by the smile, it looks like a lot of fun getting some refunds for racing.
