This bloke took a swing at Superman in the pits, sidecar racers are pretty dumb, he broke his hand! Rocket Rod Watts without his overalls.

Another shot of Garry Lorenzi, apparently broke his hand in the incident. Amazing.

Great pic of Bro Jim, Pete. It's been a loooong time since that race number has been skidding around Temora, Onya, Jim

One of the best feelings in racing, coming back to the pits after being lucky enough to win, the look on their faces says it all.

Congratulations to everyone involved with the Temora Nats. It's great to hear that everything went off well and nobody ended up too badly scratched up. Where is it next year? I'd love to see it at Nepean more sooner than later.

[jimg1au]

mick you forgot to say how great the racing was mostly the pre65 races.that velo of grahams flys the one you were on is good but not a s good as the yetman triumph
then there is next year.

[firko]

Good work Jimmy....5th place against those blokes is pretty good, especially seeing you're still coming to grips with the beast.

[jimg1au]

not bad for first ride ever on it and its first outing since 1992 lots of tuning to do ran rich as s  t and needs rear wheel sorted sometimes i only had front brake

A great weekend of racing after a tender start as the track was super slippery straight up and  I dont think that I could have asked for more from the event, (other than some better results)

One of the highlights of the weekend was an unbeleivable save from Mr Ivanoff right in front of me, who had the honda at full locck, leg stretched back past the rear wheel and rode it out for almost the whole top corner to the next and recovering.
How he stayed on has got me stuffed.

Should only take a week for the liver to heal.   

Met some great blokes from all over the place, hope everyone got home incident free.

Congratulations to the winners, they earned it!

Mick, don't forget Jims driving glasses next trip.

What a Great Meeting...........after a slow start, I started to come to grips with the SC 500.......the bike performed well....the rider needs some work...
Having said that, I was pipped on the line for 6th place in the Pre '75 Final, by Ivan Hoey on his 650 Yammy and managed 4th outright in the Over 60's........
The only photos I've seen so far were taken by The Griffith Mafia.........
