Viper Round 1 Ravenswood.
« on: May 07, 2014, 10:34:13 pm »


Hi all,
         The Viper Series will kick off on 25th May 2014 at Ravenswood near Bendigo. I have been informed the track has had a lot of works completed including a new starting gate and some track changes, this will make for some good racing as we have new members racing there for the first time and our current members have not been there since the changes have been made. Below are some links for the Ravo entry form so please get your entry filled in ASAP.

Regards Peter.

The Ravenswood track has had some serious work done to enhance an already great track. The all new starting gates are now 1 metre higher than before which eliminates the boggy stuff that occasionally happened after a big downpour. There has also been tons of loam added to almost the complete track & a new uphill section which looks fun. Be there.

Great to see the year kicking off. Good luck, hope the year goes well.

Ravenswood would have to be one of my favourite tracks. Monza being my favourite of course, with Blue Rock second, but right up there.

Pete, speaking of Monza, you still interested in a round here? If so you may want to look at later in the year. That said even with all the rain we've had the track has come/holding up well. Anyway let me know.

Good luck to all

PS. Might come up for the beer & BS session Sat night (I assume there will be camping?)

Sign on 8:30, Ravenswood bylaws don't allow bikes to be on the track till 10:00am so that's when practice begins, racing 10:30.
Cheers,

The VMX gods seem to be very obliging at the moment. If it stay's as is, it will Ravenswood at it's best. Be there.
Cheers,

Gidday to all Big K goes down in a big way and in hospital, unfortunately a rider clipped him just after the start and he was thrown off his bike then run over by another, he has a punchered lung and at least 3 broken ribs, ive just spoke to him, he sounded in good spirits, more updates to come Bear

in good spirits, more updates to come Bear

Was a great day, no good about BigK, I got a ripper start and came back round after the first lap to a red flag I was devestated, probably not as much as Mick though! Doing the whole track including step up was great in the moderns also.Get well soon see you all at barrabool. :)

Tough luck for BigK,poor bloke didn't even get 1 race lap in,I think it was his first race for the day :(,get well soon Mick :)

Otherwise it was a top day,I had a bit of a lie down in open evo after going over the top of a berm & finding a forking big hole on the other side,thought I was going for a trip over the hangers but somehow managed to stay on till we came to a grinding holt :D

sent a few texts to Mick and he sounds like he is holding up, he is out of IC and just in the ward, 4 ribs are not as they should be.. he was pissed at being run over like a rabbit....
