:cry: Feck it all .I'm going to be out of the country for this one :(
Paid for Sportsmen membership today. Will be there for the trackday, then race @ MP if goes well.
I will be there. I have to renew my club membership too.
BUMP BUMP
This event will not go ahead unless we get our shit together and send in entries. If u want to go atleast let sporties know, we still need numbers for this to go ahead.
My missus is very excited for this event as she will get to ride the track day prior to racing. She has said she will be very upset and most likely spend all day crying if it doesn't happen. Also i will have to listen to her cry..........
Please guys i hate the sound of a womans tears..................
I wasn't going to, but ok then.
I want to see photos (not of Jov's lady friend crying either).
I'm in, I just have not sent entry or anything.
You can tell them that I am in if you want Jov.
I will pay next week or on the weekend.
We need 10 more riders for the satday track day and sunday race for this to go ahead. if you know anyone or are keen to do it now is the time to sign up.

What happened to all the dudes that were at the sporties meeting ?? I thought looking at numbers there that there'd never be a problem getting numbers for this.
Problem is Lee that people are leaving their entries until the last minute.
spot on Tom, hey PJM I didn't see ur down for the track day. U ride a berg rite???
If the due date is a problem, then the due date should be earlier.
I'm down for everything, Carnell and MP.
Balls to the wall, I paid.
Final instructions and rider list arrived yesterday... I am officially bricking it at the thought of riding on dirt again! :lol:
u'll be right mate, i.m juist hoping to actually ride this year
Yeah, I got em. We don't have S1, S2 etc, which is a bit crap, only A/B combined and then C and Vets.... and what happend to you other ape riders for support and blocking the singles out in the dirt ?! :lol: I'm the lone ape in a/b
I just read the sup regs, which you obviously did not. :lol:
A/B class will be filled based on qualifying times. Entry doesn't matter, unless you rate yourself! :P
Oh OK. Maybe I should read them. I just entered and that's it. How do we get qual times with no timing out there ?
Ok I just read some more....
5. TIMING: TIMING IS NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS MEETING. LAP SCORING WILL BE UTILISED. Grid positions for the first
event will be determined by 2008 championship standings, however, the Clerk of Course has the right to seed any competitor
into any position for the first leg of each class. Each subsequent grid positions will be determined by the finishing order of the
previous event.
So.... yeah don't really know where I will be. So it is from state champs last year ?
That's a very good point Joseph. They must be doing it by eye.
I'll see how it looks on the day, and if they want to even out grid numbers. I'll go where im put I guess.
hmmm, I never thought about grid positioning and lack of timing. I have a rough idea where I'll be starting from... 18 entries at 4 bikes per row should mean I'm somewhere on the 5th row. :lol:
Weather isn't looking too flash at the moment -

Wish I was going to be there. My bike would carve up all other bikes on dirt in it's current state. :)
You'd be suprised. There are some good dirt riders, even with slicks.
I just put my VDB cams in and took it for a strap up the driveway. It has been over 3 months since I have been on it so it is hard to compare, but I had a big friggin smile :D I was thinking about cutting out some races this year because of $$ but now that I've ridden again I remember how bloody fun it is !!

Joe you're unreal!!!!!!!!!!!!! Frame mod, shortened swinger, VDB cams what next???????????
I understand how you are feeling Joe, I just took mine for a stealth run (got to be the biggest oxymoron ever when applied to a Silmoto equipped Ape!) and it was amazing! I can't wait for Morgan Part Rd 1.
Joe you're unreal!!!!!!!!!!!!! Frame mod, shortened swinger, VDB cams what next???????????
Well I had to make it into a race bike :) I think that's it Mark... unless I get some 50mm marzocchis :D but I doubt that, I have already spent too much money on it.
Stealth run Paul :lol: :lol: Yeah a stealth run on a race motard.

haha I didn't mean you I was talking about Steve Anderson hahahahahahaha
Steve has his in one piece again apparently, but as a 550 this time. There will be an impressive grid in 2 weeks at Morgan Park.

Sweet how many Devo? All 550's?
Well there could be up to 8 550's, including a VDB. An SMR-RR is confirmed. Linden Magee will be out there on his Elf guzzling green rocket ship (fuck that thing goes for a 450 - and incidentally, Jesse Whackers CRF is just as quick!). And then there's a gaggle of other bikes. These things change a lot, people change their mind, but I reckon we're 20+ for sure = motard only race = devo doesn't get in trouble for foot out. :D
should be an absoulute cracker!!!
I was blown away by the speed of the wackers bikes. very well prepared machines

Hahaha love the foot out comment Devo! I have had the same problem down here.
8 550's sounds like a huge amount of fun and Magee sucks ass!
It's gonna make it hard for Ben100 down here to chase him down in the nationals if they happen, for the kwaka title!
and incidentally, Jesse Whackers CRF is just as quick!
Fuck yeah, that thing came past me on the straight like I was standing still... I don't think it's standard ;)
Looking forward to a great weekend out at Morgan Park, thankfully that bloke on the other SMR-RR that t-boned me in Race 2 won't be there!
who is the confirmed SMRR for MP?????
It would have to be Benny as that other SMRR isn't going anywhere in a hurry
What happened to it Paul? I didn't realise it was that Ryan's until the way home. He can be a bit loose. :lol2:

Don't you guys run a raffle for that :?:
Remember, bring camera for pit lane :D
Straight over my head Neil. What's the raffle about?

Bit loose?! I'll say! you should have heard what Rob called him! Not sure what happened to the SMRR but the kickstart wouldn't move. Hopefully it's not a dropped valve as I know how expensive that can be. He reckons Husky will warranty it... I was speaking to someone who has experience with Husky warranty, they reckon he's got no-hope.
He didn't even get to race on it, ended up racing on his mate's Husky 250 (Yellow) which now has a bent LHS radiator.
x 2 on the no hope, huskies just aren't up to it
To be fair, it is probably no different a result than when the RR's were raced in 07.
