Just wondering why the race program has changed so much from the last two years it seems we are wasting Saturday PM a little.

2009/10  Sat    Practice in the AM / trophy races etc in the PM
             Sun    normal 2 rounds of club series
2011       Sat    Practice in the AM / Novelty races in the PM
             Sun   Trophy races in the AM / 1 round of club series in the PM

I was not at previous events so cannot comment. The 2009/10 program seems to be more bang for the buck so to speak

No particular problem just wondering

A more cynical bloke would suggest that its deliberately intended to stop anyone doing the trophy races on Saturday and then going to the pre-90 day at Clarence on Sunday, as I had planned....

The old format worked great. Apart from anything else, the presentation in the middle of the day will inevitably be rushed.

the change of date is obviously unpopular with the retro MX guys,
and I was planning on doing Clarence aswell,
but if you checked the timing of press release's the format was advertise before the date change,

Yeah, I know-  heard about the format change while at HBBB.  But am surprised it saw the light of day.

I was not questioning the date change I think that was weather or facility related and yes the format was out sometime ago.

I just wondered about the program change thats all. It seem that the previous two years seemed to run as smoothly as the weather allowed ::). Particularly 2009 when the weather was good (as I remember, I think?). It also allowed multi moto trophy events as I remember.

I assume there is some reason for the change as I don't think anyone would fix something if it wasn't broken.

Bugger, kids birthday on Saturday so I am out for Saturday night drinks at the track which could affect the old race fitness, but should be good for sunday, Maicos permitting ::)

Likewise, a dirttrack day at Hunter the 15th is good, one door closes, another one opens :)

Hi Guys
Stop all the conspiracy theories. Keep your eyes on the HVMX web site.
The date was changed because of the weather (long range weather forecast) and the  fact the working bee was going to fall on mothers day. It also gave us little bit more time to get organised.

No way   was the change it so it would clash with the pre 90 guys. 

The format: will be posted on HMVX . There will be 2 rounds of HVMX racing over the 2 days as well as CRC

Also, if you want the real facts  or you got something to say, you all know where I work. I am here 6 days a week, you can call any time.

PS, don't forget to pre enter.

WOW all you Evo and Pre85 guys only ONE round of racing and all that mind numbing flagging for the old dungers.

Ha Ha know where I'd rather be CLARENCE RetroMX, with 5 rounds of racing only 1 hour from Sydney ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
