Well, I have hit the reply button so i guess that's a start. Our previous QVMX president (Kim) started talking to Toowoomba Club Re using their track, he resigned from QVMX committee for family reasons and asked John Tate (QVMX) to take over the issue. John then had a severe accident and I (Andrew) offered to take over with the organising. I went up to Toowoomba on two occasions to meet with their committee and organise the event.
Some of our QVMX members were able to get up to Toowoomba for a practice the weekend before (father's day) and relate their comments to Tmxc.
who worked on the concerns of running VMX on a modern track. On the Sat before race day, people were saying to me "if you don't turn off the sprinklers, then we will as we don't want to be running in a "mudbath" toomorow!. I suggested that the TMXC had run the MX Nats here two weeks earlier and the same people were prepping the track for us VMX. Then we get people complaing about the dust, rightfully so. At the lunch break there were two people watering the track. Peter Stocker and yours truly.
