Yep, those old pre '78 classes sure are dead and buried. Buggered if I know why we put up with 'em. :P

We agree on something.....

The time is now for all you Pre90 enthusiasts. Jump aboard & lobby for your club to run the 2011 Nats--EVO ,Pre85 ,Pre90.
No class yet??--make it happen.More motos,more laps,age splits means more rides per bike.It's all good.

I retried from racing in 79, so pre 78  to pre65 is the era for me.

anyone want to re-vote...
Will it all fadeout in 3 years time,when we are all burnt out from pushing barrows.
Will the cost to travel be too much ?
Is the cost too much for you already ?
Is the VMX calender getting flooded with CD7,HBBB,pre90,Anniversaries,OS events ?   :-X

I have changed my vote and believe we need to stay together for the strength of the sport.
Make it a long weekend.
cheers

Hi,
 Great opportunity for EVO , pre85, pre 90 to run a separate Title at a track that suits their bikes
Imagine having the Nats without all the pre 75/78 "Old Bastards" whinging about everything ,

 Modern Vintage MX Clubs  and Classic Vintage MX Clubs  will both benefit from an amicable separation

Pre 75/78 for me thanks
Michael Bamford.

I would ride them both if they weren't both too far to travel otherwise i'd ride the closer event one year and do the other the next.

That is right walter, at the nationals this year l had the pleasure in viewing a late model sidecar, to my memory the engine was a Jawa  watercool 2 stroke l think about 700 or 800 cubes, a work of art, now if l had my way, l would be promoting those models into the pre 90 era classes.

It was actually a Jawa 4 stroke and the engine alone owes him 15K
