I don't know why the VCM Committee haven't taken advantage of the promotional benefits of this website but here goes ;-)
This Sunday is round 3 of the VCM (Victorian Classic Motocross) Championship being run at Undera, never been there myself, a bit north of Shepparton so I believe.
The weather forecast is looking the most perfect for the event, light showers during the week and dry days over the weekend, track should be grouse!
Classes are ...
Pre 60, Pre 70, Pre 75, Pre 75 4-stroke, Pre 80 mini's, Evo & Fast 50's
Entry fee is only $50
Open to members of the following clubs (membership on the day is surely possible) ...
Ballarat Rovers, Classic Scramble Club, Bendigo, Gulburn Valley, East Malvern, Viper, Gippsland Centre, Corner inlet.
Call Alan on 03 9758 3350 AH to put in a phone entry.

The Undera track is a ripper I have ridden there many times before, I reckon I will head out to take some photos of this event.
Cheers Mick.

There is two evo 3 evo classes, evo all powers, evo expert and evo non expert, I race in expert and A/P which gives me 5 for the day

Looks a good fun track, more natural terrain than man made.
I went for a look back in 2011…

From all the video's I've seen of the place, they seem a bit 'hit & miss' with the watering. Tracks look quite flat but fun.
EDIT: Video deleted.
-
The watering of the track there has always been a problem and there well aware of it, but from what I have been told it comes down to lack of $$$ to put in a sprinkler system, but I know John and a few others are always trying to do the best they can with what they have and I bet John will be working on the track all week so you blokes have a good days riding :)
Cheers Mick.

I appreciate the hard work that club members put into preparing tracks for events and thank them for it. I would imagine that on a flat track such as this that a water tanker/trailer could distribute the water a little more evenly?
With the weather forecast as it is, I think the track conditions could well be perfect this weekend?

Speaking of which it's gonna be a good one. Great atmosphere the locals really get behind the event. Theres a new start area closer to the pits. I do believe people will be directed to a new pit area close to the start line. Also there's an opportunity to ride your modern around the track after the racing has finished. Heard a few grumbles that its too far. All depends where you live of course but no further than Yarram or Yanakie and after last year I would say well worth it. Cheers Jerry

Just make your way to the township of Undera then keep heading north to Echuca about 400m passed the Undera pub you will see a footy ground on your left the track is behind that, it is easy as to see.
Cheers Mick.

The Undera Hotel-Motel has accommodation only 400m from the track if anyone is interested, I think for around $45.
