hot off the press - a couple of pics from Nudgee today

[mainline]

Sorry didn't get too many, I was child-minding a 3yr old at the time. I met Tony B but didn't get any action shots as the young'n got bitten by a bloody big ant during his race.



There's a pic of the pits ...

start line shot with Vandy eyeing off the holeshot...

Vandy at full throttle...

and a forlorn unidentified rider whose steed let him down just as he was challenging for position...

[vandy010]

very good mate!
i eyed off the holeshot alright, had it set in my mind in a real Zen like fashion..
real life can be different though hey? maybe i need a holeshot buddy.
i pulled a 3rd off the line into the first turn in one race, not bad for a slow little mx, 1st was a meth burner and 2nd was one of them silver honda things.
seems it's the ignition went south, so i'll have a play with it throught the week and hopefully she'll be fine for CD5.
mainline,how come you didn't help me push?

I felt a twinge in a muscle or something? ( I was busy brushing a piece of grass off one of my chips)

[DR Fan]

Dont be nasty William,didnt your mum teach you about being a gracious LOSER and its all about particapation and all that PC bullshit.
Congrats DJ, the new pre 75 125 champ.

[TM BILL]

Sorry Captain  didn't mean to be nasty 
Full credit to DJ a true and worthy champion .
DJ really stepped it up this year and i cant think of a better bloke to LEND my title to 
The whole pre 75 class stepped up a gear this year , Darryll was as usual in a class of his own and the young fellas Jonah and Brandon showed that the pre 75 class has a promising future.
5 rounds , 14 races a shit load of fun and even more dust 
Congratulations DJ bring it on for 08 / 09 Bill.

WHO THE F@#K IS TM BILL       

I dont mind being the caretaker for a year Bill at least the trophy is away from Taupo and in the true heart of VMX

Anyway, sorry guys, didnt mean to take over the thread. Did anyone else get a few more photos?? Did Doc ride?? What else happened on the day?? Was the goldenboy(090) riding big red??

[Doc]

nope DJ..I was out beating off snakes,spiders and wasps all day!  I even got a chance to cut some grass but not a lot before I ran away for some heavy artillery! Looks like I missed a good day at Nudgee as usual..Congrats on the title too bloke. How the heck do you guys win by half a point!! how do you get half a point!!! only in uNZud I guess  good onya! 

[Wombat]

Yeah, hearty congrats on the title DJ!!
I'm thinking the half point thing is similar to the currency issues between our two Countries.
One Aussie dollar is worth more than one Kiwi dollar, therefore one Aussie point is worth.......

Hey DJ.I decided to miss out as i have a fair bit to do getting sorted for cd5. Thats all that matters for me at the moment!

[DJRacing]

I know what you mean Brad, I got the doco's on my bike today and it is on a flight over to Brisbane tomorrow so she will be sitting at the frieght depot in Brizzie International waiting for me......  I missed her in the weekend, so I cant wait to give her another blat at CD5. Looking forward to seeing the Nudgee track as we fly in, I better have a window seat.
