Some people will have back to back races, you may have to wait a couple of minutes in between.
the race secretary will attempt to have race order so this does not happen, if it does, yes we wait
What's the plan if a class is over subscribed?
the race secretary will come up with the best split for the over subscribed class only

I think the 20mins between races was from one start to the next - ie 17 min races then next race is away 3 mins later.

Best of luck - am interested in seeing numbers - especially as how you are aiming for races longer than both Heaven and Modern it seems

Heaven ran two races at its last meeting this year at Lakes with 15min +1 which I gues is where the timing is coming from. The 4 laps and 5 laps moderns are for club days.

Again, it's not a club meet (aka a Heaven meeting) it' s a meeting to decide Australian Post Classic Motocross Champions and I'm pretty sure modern National races are more than three, eight lap races. ::)

Hi Ross, yes I read it that way as well. We were pleasantly surprised at the last Heaven meet as to how popular the 15 minute plus 1 races were.  They were added to the program as a Feature Race for a bit of fun and a huge amount of bikes lined up and finished each race held at the end of each day and there were a lot of positive comments from the boys afterwards. The longer races at Mr VMX were well received as well. You are right, it will be interesting to see the numbers but if these two meets are any indication I think we will have a few classes over subscribed, especially the EVO 250 and the Pre 85 250.

BTW, for those with open class bikes, this is a horse power track where you will be able to open er up and use some of that power. In the 'All In' races the big bores were making us 250s eat their dust up the big hills.

The format seems spot on, to be raced on what is one of, if not the best, MOTOCROSS tracks & facilities in NSW and run by a switched on team.

It's going to be HUGE!!!

I realize its the nationals but as the event didnt get off the ground last year a bit of leaniancey for people running back to back races the likes of Brad to make it the biggest grids as possible would be benificial. Theres no way the program can suit everyone for no back to back races. Im not trying to be negative but would love to see the effort you guys and girls put in get the best grid numbers and solid foundations for its future.

Does the point scoring change in age bracket??

I am 48 and will be racing 40 yr olds, i have raced in some masters class events where you get additional point per age to help even the field.

Or is there scope to make changes if there is enough 45yr old plus riders

Evo age groups  18.2.2.1  125 - 250 - 263 cc plus
f )    under 30
g )   30-39
h )   40-49
i  )   50-59
j  )   60 plus

Im keen to ride

They are the age groups as per the MOM's so can't be altered for a title event.

I'm 48 too and understand what your saying. But just think in a couple of years we will be kicking 59 year old butt  ;D ;D ;D

Every meeting I have gone to, the guys that make up the program seem to do their best not to put people in back to back races. Someone always has to draw the short straw.
