still waiting on photo
maybe it doesnt exist
or maybe its not as bad as everyone says

[bigk]

I was told a simple "rubbing is racing" incident with no malice intended, by a number of people who were there. I wasn't there, so I can't really comment, but I guess it comes down to which camp you belong to as to the way you see things. It's happened to all of us and and will continue to happen in a racing situation. I can't understand what all the fuss is about. The photo may indeed yield a different situation though. I'm hanging to see said photo, if it does exist. Please load her up if you have it.
Cheers,
K

Hey Hoony are you gonna make it for sunday DMCC club mx

[Hoony]

Totaly agree Rossco, at the end of the day its low level fun racing no matter what anyone likes to think. there is no prestige of a state title. it was started to get old bikes (and blokes ) out on the track to enjoy a bit of fun without the sheep stations.

i got into this as i still wanted to have a ride on my bikes but didn't want to race against Mr 25 Y/o crazy with no mortgage, no kids and still fully sponsored by mum and dad. i wanted to ride with blokes my own age with the same attitude, not a win at all costs competitor.

if you want to get real serious get out of viper and go and crack in the big time in modern mx on whatever bike you like.

A well known passonate Viper Member once said at riders brief a few years ago " Ride safe, take it easy out there, your only racing for $20 trophies that don't mean anything!"

Hey Hoony are you gonna make it for sunday DMCC club mx

not sure mate, i have a teribble cold at present after working yesterday in the wet/cold, energy is low and i couldn't make the club last night. i have an entry in, but will see how i feel tomorrow. buts i think its doubtful.

C'mon Hoony last MX for the year and a little bit of rain will only make the track better . A few of the boys have got the new CRF450's so they will be interesing to see how they go !!!

[NR555]

Haha.. no photo yet guys.  If I ever get it.  As my bro said to the perp, we all have jobs to go back to on Monday.  Let's try & remember that eh?

Sure, nobody likes being passed by a CZ..

what U talkn bout hilly? Dirt track prac ?? brother....

[Devilman]

They've got nothing 440... your free to go champ ha

[mxmaniac]

there is a pissa of a photo of the incident, i seen it on the day.
 Its all for fun in the long run, Just like hOOny said, if u want to race for sheep stations, its probably not the most welcoming type of series to bring your win at all cost attitude too.    bring on 2009... maybe

Hi guys yes i am the perp as NR555 calls me i passed his brother on the inside on the back corner at the time there was room but buy the time we were in the corner there was less room we made contact no one came off it was close but thats racing and it was the expert class not the clubmen class  as for the outher comments i am 38 have 3 kids and run my own business and also i have a mortgage to so what are you all trying to say here you need to be old and slow. I race the modern 450 classes vets and A grade aginst the 18 year old loonies i dont want to get hurt or hurt anyone else but some time these things happen it has happened to me lots we are racing motorbikes not playing chess at least i didnt ram him when we rode into the pits as a pay back nor did i respond to that like i got for my passing move title or no title if you are racing to win and trying to stay in the lead and dont want to get passed then dont race yes there is a photo and please post it so all can see my passing move you all say there are no sheep stations but you all try hard to do your best and dont nock back the trophys. If its just fun then why are we racing and giving trophys having a presentation night seems like things just dont go the way some want it to hey are we riding our vintage bike we all tresure so much or just bitchin and trying to piss people off

[Hoony]

Kaw440, as i wasn't at wonthaggi at last round, i don't know what occurred and  i was generalising about people taking VMX racing at low levels (non title meetings) way too serious.

i apologise if you thought the comments i made were directed at you, i assure you that was not my intention. we have raced together many times and i have never had any incidents with you trackside.

perhaps in hindsight i should have not posted my comments in this thread.

[holeshot buddy]

obviously the photo must not
be bad enough to post 
had plenty of time to do it
