We have had a bunch of them in Iowa. The local Harley/Buell shop puts them on as a way to show how good the Buells are compared to the ricers. (not) A bunch of us took our YSRs to the deal and cleaned house. We didn't just take stockers, OH NO, we took our frankenbike YSRs. YSR/YZ250, YSR/YZ426F, YSR/YZ80 and a few others. There was no one there who even got a wiff. There were a coulpe motards there, but the high center of gravity worked to their disadvantage. It was great fun seeing the jaws of the Buell guys drop when we came in 8-10 seconds quicker than their best times. Some Jeff Johnson guy who is the factory Buell Roadrace guy was there and gave it his best shot on a very worked on Buell Blast, but he wasn't even close.
Everyone should go and try the Battletrax thing out. It is a "must do" at least one time anyway. It isn't as much fun as a track day, but there are usually lots more spectators at the Battletrax events than there are at track days. There aren't any jumps though. Unless you jump over fallen Buell riders.
I hope the guys that go have a lot of fun.
