I'm thinking Ohio or PA is the closest for a larger mini series, although you could look into the Show-Me series in missouri.

I have fun at Joliet MX and Mendota Megacross series both in IL. There is also an indoor winter series in Waterman, IL. All are pretty much just a 12" open class. If you can get enough people Joliet will do a 10" class too. It would be nice to see a big series or event come around here with more classes.

Check out Joliet Motor Sports for details, they have races the next two Saturdays I think (unfortunately I can't make either

)

They also have a couple in October I think, Mendota's last race is Sept 26th.

Waterman International Raceway | IL Indoor Motocross Tracks | Illinois Indoor Mx - not sure if they have any recent pics, but its a fun pitbike track - really tight on a big bike though.

Waterman is awesome for pitbikes. The fullsize whoops and table to table jump is challenging, but that track is perfect for minis. The berms are like wall rides so you can pin a stocker and let 'er eat.

track looks sweet
