Hi all,
         now that CD10 has been cancelled for this year ( not good news )  those of you that were planning the trip and were going to give the Viper grass track weekend a miss due to being to close to CD10 the entries are still open. It is shaping up to be a very good weekend of VMX so why not be a part of it.

See post above for the link to the online entry.       Regards Peter.

All entered  very much looking forward to this event as it will be my first ride in nearly 6 weeks!!  :'( Might bring a yellow vest so if the next race is waiting too long for me to finish i'll just pass myself off as a sweep!!  Chris has been riding every weekend for nearly 2 months so we're expecting big things from him at the event were he'll pop his vmx cherry!  See ya's there.

Cheers, Brendan

Cheers Terry..

Hey Pete, how'd we go with numbers for the Sat nite bbq ?

Seein as Sat is only a practise day, we should make the day the 'Vic Classic Dirt' event  ;-)

Numbers are ok for the Saturday night and the landowner has informed me that the catering will go ahead as planned, i`m sure it will be a good night.  Peter.

Peter, I have a mate who would like to ride the saturday practice only,he does not want to race on sunday,Is that possible? Maybe there are others who are also interested in not racing,just wanting to have a ride ala classic dirt,If ok,would he need to enter as a full competitor or can you work something out for saturday only riders,he doesn't expect to ride for free

cheers smed

Hi smed,
              sorry for the slow reply i am in the middle of moving house.  I will get an answer for you over the weekend and let you know regarding a Saturday only ride.  Peter.

[smed]

Sorry guys, just a little bit of bad news for the Grass Track dinner.
The bloody Yabbies aren’t biting.
It must still be a bit too cold for them. Or they're smarter then we thought.
Normally we drop the nets in and 30min later they are full.  But this time, 3 days,  4 nets and 2 different dams and only half a dozen Yabbies.
So it’s with regret.  I have to say no Yabbies for Saturday night.
But don’t worry the food will still be sensational.

I've just been looking at the local weather forecast for the weekend. 
It's looking like great weather.  Fingers Crossed...

Hi all,
          the Viper grass track event for this weekend is shaping up to be a big 2 days of VMX with confirmed entries from the VCM club and also the CSC club which is good to see. Below are some important details and a schedule for the 2 days on how the event will run, please print a copy of times etc. and keep them with you.


I have had a lot of enquiries from guys to just ride on the Saturday and not race Sunday and for these guys the cost is as follows.

Saturday only ride fee = $25 which includes Sat. only Viper membership.

Recreation licence if you don`t already have one = $25


All others that are doing both days the cost is as follows.

Entry fee = $70.

Viper membership for the 2 days if your not already a member = $20.

Recreation licence for the Saturday practice = $25.

Race licence for the Sunday = $55.


Please take note that the licence fees are set by Motorcycle Victoria and not one cent goes to Viper from these, sorry but these are not negotiable.


Time schedule for the 2 days is as follows.   

Saturday: gates open 10am, sign in from 11.30am and thru the afternoon, practice to start at 1pm until 5pm.

Bonfire and catering will take place after practice is finished and people have made their way up to the other end of the property.

Sunday:  Riders briefing at 8.30am, followed by a 10 minute session for anyone that didn`t take part on the Saturday to have a look at the track and this is to take place riding behind a track marshall so it doesn`t turn into a free for all flat out practice, 1st race underway around 9am.


Important items please take note.

Could you please make sure you have your race number clearly visible on your back so the lap scorers can identify you and score you correctly.

As per last year please do not use tear offs at this venue as the property normally has cattle grazing on it and tear offs are not on their menu.

The bonfire and catering will take place at the other end of the property, the landowner has advised that we can all drive to the bonfire and back to the pits inside his property without having to go out onto public roads. This means please take it easy to and from the pit area.

We will have flag marshalls again for this event so you will not need to do any flagging at all, we have a first aid crew there for both days.

The landowner will be running a canteen for us on the Sunday so please support him and make it known to him that all his effort is very much appreciated.

If you require any further info please send me an email to  [email protected]   


Looking forward to a big VMX weekend, see you all there.  Regards Peter Gruber.
