Hey Noël all sorted, entered three classes pre 78 125, 250 and 263 +. He will be a busy boy over the weekend.

It would be great to see WA embrace Pre78 (even if only to host a Nats).
Unfortunately the Eastern States riders don't support WA as enthusiastically as WA supports us.
I've done three Nats hosted by WA and they turn on a great event.

I sold the cr Ted to a local Pt Augusta legend called Ian Butler, Butler is in his mid forties and a great rider. Hes hopefully recovered from a brocken wrist to ride.
Liam has a big weekend then as it seems by the entries that alot of people riding 2,3 and 4 bikes.

211 is the AJS going to see the track again or are you still collecting bits.

Getting excited as its only 3 weeks away to see, hear, smell and ride some classics with a chin wag in between.

If theres no takers for next year, Im sure another SA club would put there hand up for 2015

That's all the bikes I can get to SA, plus no age racing in pre 78. If you know of any other bikes pre 75 that are half decent let me know before Monday close.

The arm is getting better, plated last week and should be okay. The ribs are giving me grief so hard to get comfortable sleeping.

Cheers

I reckon Port Augusta is just about perfect for this event. It is as close to being in the middle of all the Australian major cities as you'll get, giving everyone the opportunity to attend. A week off work in the middle of the year with some very good racing thrown in.....priceless. You are a long time dead 8)

Age classes in the Pre75 three capacities have been in way before the split.

Its not in 2013 GCR's  :-\
Got it, sorry I apologize

But I still find it a terrible cost to a hosting club and it would possibly reflect in the riders entry.
cheers

My first Nats was 1994 and it was age/capacity then. I checked my old souvenir programns and with a few exceptions this has been the norm.
The age/capacity classes enhance the entry numbers, not detract from them. For example a lot of riders particularly over 40 only do the age races. 2012 Nationals drew 42 entries in the Open 250 class, yet 67 rode in the 250 age group races meaning 25 chose ONLY the age races.Yes there is more cost in trophies but we use less expensive awards for the age races and MA supply the medals anyway. I've had no trouble securing sponsorship to cover this cost.
The GCRs are clear on this as where all powers classes eg 4Stroke Ladies etc are intended, it states "All Powers". Where age/capacity classes are intended it nominates 125, 250 and 263+
