I don’t like writing race reports because I'm not too good, but then I think ahh what the heck it was
"A Cracker"..Literally,
We filled the truck tank up twice on Saturday,even with a slow leak from a rusty underbelly.The track only needed four loads the second being on dark.Thankfully the good old farm dam was full.The track was looking pretty smick for Sunday, with the last tank full applied on lunch break.
A nice steak burger,some lemonade by the fire with plenty of bench racing and a few fireworks,topped the day of nicely till 10.30pm swag time.
The day dawned with a slight breeze and the bacon and eggs cooked up well. Thank you Gary.
More trailers/ute's and riders arrived for the day with large practice of groups doing a sight lap and two more. “PRACTICE” yer right
Very impressed with the amount of sidecars out for the day , 9 in all.
With about 10 over 55's in the solo class.
The first race of the day went to the 125 class, with a little CR125m Honda going for broke up against a nice lemony tanked Husqvarna riden by Watto..These pointy end riders where ringing the necks of the turkeys. Later on the Honda retired before too much extra gear damage could be done. Wise
Nine sidecars up next they were all out for blood. Not much room up in the tree ridge too pass, but plenty of the flowing corners. Well one outfit thought there was, with his third wheel which disagreed by going the opposite way into last year’s crop .
Top racing and again fantastic to see them out at it again on Dyjack Ridge. One of the two best tracks in WA for sidecars.
250cc and over had a nice party of 20 odd riders on the elastic start with some nice British bikes (love the thumpers). Most of these also ran in the Unlimited Class.
Squeezed four rounds in for the day and an all~in, too top it off.
Excellent day for CCM’s, Metisse’s and all else pre75 !!
