Queensland Titles 25th - 26th August

[Davey Crocket]

Too many big meets to close together Jackie... Aussie Champs, Double the dirt, Conondale Classic, QLD titles....all 2 day events....then we have coming up CD9, Mr Vintage Motocross and the Masters Games.....not to mention the remaining club days for QVMX and BMCC....all the piggybanks are running dry. We are spoilt in SEQ.

what a load of "Crocket" Davey!
my entries in,
it'll be good,
so be there...

[Kane Mcguire]

Im in. A must do race of the year!

What a pity after the Nats support for the earlier classes of pre60 & pre65, no sign in the Qld titles.  We've got to support these early classes, at least ask for nominations.  If insufficient nominations,  call them a support class & combine with another race, but after the sucess of pre60, pre65 250 & pre65 unlimited at the Aust titles in attracting both riders and spectators, we can't give up now.
The top end has been set at pre78, lets work back to encourage all possible classes.  A good start would be to provide a pre65 unlimited, and take it from there.

Have you all read the supp regs, need 10 bikes to make a class and only for something to hang around your neck, and if less and above six you get a certificate. Less than six nothing. $90 a head plus extra per bike. I believe this is poor for a title event at least the club should have put up trophies for the money they are charging people. Won’t even know till the day if you are racing for a medallion/placemat/ or bragging rights (nothing).

Not only that Foxy, its ment to be a title event and being split over two days, with party saturday night,feels more like some crazy social  event, not a QLD title.

If its to run over two days saturday for the title, then party and sunday fun day, noveilty races etc.

[Davey Crocket]

That makes more sence Graham...and Vandy, your living in a dream world...I was merely stating an opinion as to why entry numbers where low....you only do a few of the events that are on and beleive it or not we have had quite a run this year....see you there.

Valid point I will find out about that Foxy

Soo why run it ass about face Jack, you want to have ur party, fine lets do it AFTER the racing not between

[Barronvmx]

It would be good if this discussion was held during club meetings however I shall address the party so called on Saturday night. The owner of the track Greg suggested the roast meal rather than people going to the pub at nearby towns to eat. As far as calling it a party that's up to the individual if they don't want to race the next day.  I look forward to other matters being tabled at our next meeting for discussion and shall contact foxy personally.
Those riders who will not be attending are going to miss out on one of the best prepared and vintage friendly tracks in Eastern Australia. I can ride both pre 75 and EVO on the same track all meeting with a challenge for all eras and still have big jumps and huge berms that are CMX friendly.

The Buzzard and me were in BUT dissapointingly beuracracy has scuppered the plans  a big thankyou to Jackiemac and the ladies for helping us apply for one event licences but it aint gonna happen  :'(

Inspite of racing in Australia a number of times including National and State titles NOW its not possible without drama 

Bottom line we cannot get one event licences for this event as we do not live in Australia .

We cant get full MA licences as we dont live in Australia

We could get MNZ full licences (personally will never happen all the time theres a hole in my arse , i would rather donate the fee to the united muslim front ) and the purchase the international insurance required (from MNZ at a price they quote , last time was $300.00 for one event )

Ironicly we could have ridden the Connondale classic on a (one event licence as its a club day ) but personal circumstances wouldn;t allow 

To clarify we are not looking for free medical or accident care or free repatriation should we tip over while at the event .We both have insurance that covers all those things , all we want to do is come and race at an event we have raced before and enjoyed and podiumed 

For the cost of going through the MNZ channels we could fly first class and hire the penthouse at the Gold coast Hilton for the week 

Im sure the event will be a huge succsess and again thanks to all those who tried to make it possible 

I suppose we are spoiled this side of the ditch with our lack of beurachracy ( bang in a few pegs and go racing ) We always enjoy racing (and riding CD events ) in Aussie and will hopefully  sort out a solution for future events 

The Buzzard has been dealing with a bloke at MQ and a lady at MA , for the record the lady at MA was very informative and helpfull  while the bloke at MQ apparantly is recovering from a wrist injury sustained while watching the mens wrestling at the olympics 

[vandy010]

thats a real pisser Bill,
i didn't even know you guys were aiming to make it for this event.
i'm sure you would enjoy yourselves if it was to work out.
beuracracy

[TM BILL]

Thanks chaps  it will be a great event as they always are  thats why we want in  as nice as it is racing here theres no substitute for the bigger fields and closer racing that we always get over there 

And of course the great hospitality and all the good bastards 

Before somone tells me im anti rules again  let me clarify that is not the case , i think your structured class system is better than what we have over here , im just pissed because the paperwork wont work this time  :'(

[TM BILL]

For all those soft cocks who cant handle a Sat night party and race Sunday 

Listen to this bloke
