After racing all the big bores at the Mr Vintage Motocross last weekend I posted the following to try encourage some support for something that has the potential to be terrific.
Hey guys,
After watching the success of the Aussy's at the GP today and knowing a lot of this success originates from dirt track racing it got me thinking about how good it would be to see full grids of 500cc 2 bangers on the grid again. Many times I have encountered MX riders turn there noses up at DT until they actually have a go at it and feel how good it is to hold a bike wide open.
With so many big bores at Mr VMX this year why don't some of you guys have a go at the NSW Post Classic State Championships at Nepean on the 25th November? You only need to throw a trials tyre on the back, gear the bike to pull about 130klms, slow the rear shock rebound a little (I use my MX settings) and twist the throttle. There is a youtube clip attached to try and entice you guys, this is my '83' KX500 mixing it with some fully bombed modern 450's.
Unfortunately I can't make this event myself back I would love to encourage pre 90 dirt track racing because it is so coool .
