Classic MX Nationals, facts and information 4-6th September

[bigthumpa]

Entries are coming in slowly. Currently around 50 so far. As usual the expectation is that there will be a last minute rush. Show your support for the Southwest Capes club, who have gone out on a limb to run the event, by getting them in now. By now you should all know if you are going to attend, and as Watto points out, we lead the the way as a state when it comes to our participation at events on the East coast. Come on guys, (and girls), get those entries in. Might be the only opportunity you get to ride at a national event.

See you all at Jindong this weekend!

In previous years there has been age group by capacity.. tho in many of the age groups there aren't enough to run a class.. as you can imagine.. 60 and over 125cc wouldn't have enough entries to fill one hand.. but 50-59 250cc is quite full..

[Brian Watson]

Thanks to the Southern Capes Club, we had a ride at Jindong yesterday.. about 10 showed up.. conditions were a little challenging.. but.. given that the track wasn't prepared in any way, it wasn't too bad.. after a good grading and maybe a couple of the jumps have the up-ramp altered .. it will be great.. Father's Day here we come..

[Rossvickicampbell]

bit damp Watto?

[Tossa]

yep, no prep either but gave the guys a chance to look at the layout.

[Brian Watson]

No Ross... it wasn't particularly damp.. we walked the track at about 9 am.. then rode till about 12.. sun was out the whole time.. then a few black clouds started appearing from the south west.. so we left.. it was also a 3 hour drive home too.. so good to get away "early".. The Mullet and his brother in law were there...

[Rossvickicampbell]

thanks Watto - the weather the previous night - plus the drive put me off - would of had to have left early early!!! 10 riders bit ordinary?

In previous years there has been age group by capacity.. tho in many of the age groups there aren't enough to run a class..

Supp regs indicate there are six competitors entered and competing required to run a championship class in pre-60, pre-65, pre-68 sidecar, pre-75 sidecar and Women. Other classes require 10 starters. In the case of insufficient entries, the class could be cancelled or combined with another, as per GCRs.
So more entries, more races and vice versa.
