2014 Classic MX titles - Port Augusta ( pre 78 )

[Freakshow]

Been holding off on firing up on the 2014 CMX titles until the 2013 club got there stuff done but we would like to at least get it on the radar where its going and hows it going.

So just a quick update for those interested the 2014 Classic titles will be held in Port Augusta , South Australia, by the PAMCC club.

Its a regional working class town at the foot of the mountain range and between the desert and the sea. Its where all the power is generated, the steels made and all those other industry like mining come through. with the big fishing townships down the way and of course shark cage dives....... there is somthign for everyone.

Its going to be a complete rethink of your typical grassy knowls scramble.  Its going to be a fantastic oppertunity for every one to bring there family and touch the outback and to ride red dirt.  In a mix of desert racing on red loam
The long track is being redesigned to cater for the pre 78 bikes, ev.
enthough we were able to pick our way over ski jumps last weekend at the launch ride.

A face book landing page and other information is available and will be published as soon as the ACTMX thing settles down. We have track video, photos and links to share. So hold tight !

I hope you will all get behind and support this small MX club put on the best little Aussie titles since the same sized club fired up at Crystal brook to give you a great event 2011

There were many consideration as to why to go to this spot and its also fair to the WA crew, the track is just off womera road which is an hour closer to the WA gropers so we expect to see a lot all you people from the west ! every one else its straight in from Broken hill so its kinda a fair drive for everyone around the country.

This is going to be a great chance to Camp and play in the outback, however for the senoirs the township has lots of accomadation only 10 mins down the road.
And for you crashers the hospital is there too.

The Major sponsor for this event will be the Port Augusta council and we expect them to help you with any accomadation to book onforward trips you may like to take in the region, if you wanna make a differant kinda holiday of it.

Much more to come but i just thought its time we shared our vision for 2014 and put something positive out for all you to look forward to.

Good on yer Freaksta, hopefully I'll be back riding by then.....be good to catch up and I've got me mates at Whyalla to look after me as well. 

[Simo63]

You make a great salesman Kerry ... it sounds very enticing 

[Iain Cameron]

already booked . Iain

[Nathan S]

Sounds good. Any idea of the likely date (beyond "September")?

[Freakshow]

Simo, I'm all about the riding and the Experience.  I like to race and I like to ride with friends but I don't like cold showers, no camping, expensive entry fees and road blocks.   What I want is someone to make it easy for me to make the descision and someone to make it easy for me till I leave the track.

I want you to have the same experience when you come to the 2014 event.     

We have secured a major sponsor so regardless of whether two or two hundred turn up the event will be on and successful, its just up to those who want to come to make the commitment to enjoy the event to get organised, which is why I want it out there 12 months out so there is no excuses as to we didn't now, or we couldn't plan.  It's the first week of sept as the target date (tbc). So start planning how your coming over now.

Good on you Freaky, you've gone the hard yards to help the sport in SA. Port Augusta's a long way and the event's over a year away but I'll make a big effort to get there, especially to support pre 65 and pre 60 classes with new bikes. I may even look into the feasibility of  doing a West Aussie style bulk shipment  shipping container full of bikes. Tanunda in '95 and Pt Pirie in '99 were excellent events and even though illness prevented me from being there, all reports tell me that Crystal Brook was the best of the lot so this might just be a great meeting. 

One little point that I think needs addressing though Freaky.....it's MOTOcross not MOTORcross.

[Simo63]

I want you to have the same experience when you come to the 2014 event.     

Awesome, that's exactly how I like to do it as well.  even more enticing

So start planning how your coming over now.

Only if you promise me I can get through scrutineering this time 

[Richo52]

Awesome FREAKSHOW great research and well sold.Im from WA and that will be a definite date to INK in the calendar.Roll on 2014.I will need a different number for that event as I am number 52 over here in Pre 75.

[Iain Cameron]

Richo52 get your entry in real quick then make freaky have to use 152 hehe . Iain

[Rossvickicampbell]

ooooh nasty Iain - didn't know you had it in you!

[Freakshow]
