2014 Post Classic Motocross Championship

[Davey Crocket]

HBBB is 2000km's away and full of Victorians that don't generally travel, doesn't come into it, if we get Easter as it's a 2 day meet....Sat/Sun....you get to travel Friday and Monday.....the following Friday is Anzac day.....you know us Qlders don't do things by half.....we think it out first and try and make it work.....Conondale Classic on the weekend has over 170 entries. If you give the punters a great venue, a bit of history ( isn't that what where re-creating), all the amenities and with Toowoomba a great big country town that's on your doorstep, lots of accommodation....camping/hotels/motels etc, the racers will come. Ticks all the boxes.

Would not miss it for quids .. the first post classic MX nationals .... I'm in for sure

That's gone and put a pin in my balloon. We're taking the dirt track tackle to HBBB, I don't get to ride much these days but this kind of thing is perfect for me to cut some laps......I'm actually hoping to use it to debut the big 750......I'm sure the Post Classic Nats will succeed without me .

This is starting out with all the enthusiasm that this years event promised.
Hope it doesn't end up the same way

It won't. Once we get the date confirmed by MA, it's full steam ahead.

While I totally agree that Easter would be great and Toowoomba is a great venue, I wouldn't be booking my motel just yet seeing that HBBB is an MA promotion and knowing how they've acted in the past. I can't see them issuing a permit for an event that takes potential entries away from their little cash cow

Firko you are probably right, thats why we have two long weekend dates as back up inthe first half of the year. We know it's in Qld, and we know we'll make it work. Watch this space for a date.

[firko]

Because of our annual pilgrimage to HBBB I sort of hope you go with the alternate date so I can cover both events.

that we do John .. I'm going to attempt to ride 4 classes this year .... well that's the plan .... see what eventuates on the day

Hopefully we get more than just 1 round of racing and a couple of novelty events and the price doesn't go through the roof, IMO 5 rounds over 2 days and drop your worst result is easily do able just my opinion....

[HVA61]

Not Bad for MX a MX paddock bash , Johnny 

We at Veri , just had a tad over 200 for a vintage enduro. 
 
You paddock bashes need to pick up your game

There are 3 rounds of racing popeye..

[popeye]

Yeah I no John, I was having a little dig at the classic being only 1 round of racing, but I still think(and this could put a few noses out of joint) but to be called a champion after 3 races is not right IMO, and it would give people more incentive to travel to the event knowing that there going to do more races, with a 3 round race weekend you make a mistake or have a mechanical issue you gone, might as well have not come at all.. Just MO..
