Hi all,
some good news regarding Round 5 of the Viper series which is scheduled for September 22nd 2013. This round is Vipers grass track round which was a successful day last year with all riders enjoying the natural terrain track, good weather and great atmosphere. After several discussions with the land owner as well as Frank De-Rose who looks after VCM and the Viper committee we are pleased to announce this race meeting will now be run over the Saturday 21st and the Sunday 22nd September and will include supported classes from VCM and possibly CSC.
The plan at this stage is Saturday will be sign in and open practice from approx. 1pm until 5pm, from 5pm onwards the land owner will have his yearly bonfire underway which i have been told is huge. This will make a great night / weekend for VMX riders from different clubs to meet and also be able to race the next day on the same track, this normally doesn`t happen due to different track requirements for each club. The Saturday night will also have great food available including a spit roast and BBQ food, we will need numbers from you guys to help the land owner cater for this event and i will send this request out in a separate email soon.
The Sunday will be racing only from start to finish as we will have extra classes on the schedule for this one off event, the aim is to finish at a reasonable time on the Sunday afternoon and get everyone on their way with time to spare. The landowner has allowed us to camp at the track on the Saturday night which is a bonus as you can enjoy yourself at the bonfire and not have to drive off the property until Sunday arvo, the catering for Sunday which will include a breakfast menu as well as hot and cold food at lunch time is also being organised by the land owner. More details will be sent out as the round gets closer.
I`m sure you will agree this meeting has the potential to be a big weekend of VMX with the invitation of other Victorian VMX clubs and a variety of race bikes that some of us don`t normally see. We may even see some interstate riders come down for this event. If you need to contact me regarding this event or have any suggestions please use

More good news regarding round 5, Viper has now added a class at this event for Vinduro bikes to also have practice on the Saturday and 3 races on the Sunday. A lot of guys that ride Vinduros also compete in Viper or VCM and have asked the question about a class at this event. For those that are not members of either club can purchase 1 day memberships for this event. Peter 11/6/2013.
