Vcm & CSC, I would like to see it all convert back to the victoria Vintage classic Title as it alway was. As it stands the currant meetings has no meaning and substance behind them.

Hi Wallie, what do you want to see convert back, the classes??, the tracks??, the original title ( Victorian Classic Motocross Register)??? The only thing different is the word “Register” was removed. The tracks will change according to whatever clubs are willing to hold a meeting. The classes change as people stop riding one class and start riding others... eg: and it’s only an eg: why put on a pre 60 race with one rider in it, a pre 65 race with two riders in it & a pre 70 race with two riders in it when you can have them all in one class.
And… I’m not sure what you mean by ”no meaning & substance behind them”?????

On another note…
Stevo17…VCM & Viper run quite a few classes. To have them run together, you end up with over 63 races for the day. With no hold ups, accidents, riding back to back races, 63 races x 10 minutes a race = 10.5 hrs
A little bit too long. Some people have bikes for series, some for the VCM & some for Viper. If combined, which classes do they support? Some classes would end up suffering.

I would like to see 5 round Victorian  vintage state Title, pre 75, pre 78, only. (no Viper they are with pre 90.) I am not commenting on the name register.
5 good natural terrain track and strong meeting, forget the rest, bring vcm and cSc back as one.

Suzukal - combining some classes can reduce the number of races on the day. There is no point having races with 2 or 3 bikes in it.  I ride pre85 250 and hopefully 500 next year. I did one 500 race this year and it had 4 bikes.  Heaven have pre85 all powers and it is a blast. A couple of years ago at Crawford river we had 44 bikes on the grid as Evo were allowed to ride up an era. Now that is some serious fun into the first turn.

You have to try and cater for everyone.   Five natural terrain tracks would be great for those that want that but what about those that want jumps and berms. There are those that hate grass tracks & others that love them.
The VCM organises with different clubs around the state to hold a round for the Classic Motocross Series. They try to make it three natural tracks & three MX tracks. But it’s up to the club in the end, if no club wants to hold a natural terrain race, you end up with MX tracks.
The VCM & CSC were never one, the VCM is a committee that organises a series of races & CSC is a club that use to hold a race in that series. The CSC are able to ride any VCM race event & are more than welcome to hold a round of the series.
