I saw TH on Sunday and he's def not entered and it's probably too late for this year.
If there's only one Slider entry then that's a bloody disgrace, good on you Wally for having a go.
Honestly I think that the Super Senior's age should be reduced to 65 or maybe even 60.
I really thought that there would be a decent roll up of Sliders this year, seems the MOM's need to be looked at very seriously.
My money's on you Punchy.

what happened to all the sliders?
When I was a young bloke - early seventies - they were everywhere.
Dont tell me that there all restored sitting in loungerooms. I would think that anyone that had one would be itching to ride every chance they could get.
If at first you don't succeed, lower your standards.

I got your PM, Wal but my TT engined Slider is NOT eligible for the pre 75 Slider class and I'm only a young pup of 67, so therefore not eligible for the Super Seniors, I rest my case M'lud !!.

I'd have a skid around on me Slider with you at the drop of a hat, but, as I'm the Starter for the meeting, it ain't gunna happen.

As Slides says the Classic GCRs do need looking at, maybe a Classic DT only Commision instead of a composite one.

 I had a semi-official call yesterday about the Super S and slider situation yesterday and I got the inference that if any more entries are put in before there committee meets they have a chance.
 SO c'mon!
 according to rule 18.2.3.5 c)          "Australian Championship will be awarded regardless of number of entrants."

 SO all we need is two more all powers pre 70 bikes and blokes to make it viable.
  So to quote the bimbo " where the bloody hell are ya"
 cheers.

This is going to come back and kick whoevers idea it was to split the eras for the Dirt Track Nats in the arse. The split was an absolute neccesity for the motocross side of our sport but definitely not needed for classic Dirt Track. To add to the tragedy, I've been told that MA wanted another $3000 to incluce Evo and up in the program and if that's true the pricks should hang their greedy heads in shame.

Having said that where in hell are the classic era dirt track punters hiding? Traditionally this has been a jewell of a meeting, especially in recent years and I don't understand why racers haven't supported the Canberra clubs promotion. What a bloody shame.

100% agree Firko. I can tell you that if the later era's were catered for I and a number of others I know would have been all over this meeting. As it stands I will be waiting until the NSW title meeting for post classics at Nepean in November. It is a crying shame as speaking for myself I was really looking forward to riding at Canberra.

If MA did indeed try to double dip on permit fees I think they should really have a good look at themselves. As can be seen in Road Racing they aren't the only game in town anymore and it is just a matter of time before an alternative avenue of permitting is further explored by the dirt side of the sport.

Cheers
Shaun

MA def did try to doublr up on the permit fee just for the inclusion of EVO & Pre85, and as has already been said it's a Freaking disgrace, surely there could've been an exemption for Dirttrack.
Sorry to use youe name in vain Freaky.

I think the poor slider entry can be directly attributed to the way the class is poorly treated at a club level. There should be no segregation. These motorcycles should be allowed to compete as any other manufactuer would be allowed to. The whole concept of a separate class is misguided. Was there a slider class in the 70`s? No. 
I sold my slider because this of attitude at club level, who wants to race against 3 or 4 bikes (on a good day), get a 2 lap practice then sit around all day for 2 rides.
