David this is good old Frank DeRose,

When i started this thread i was looking for support and some positive comments about Barrabool and the VCM, not interested in the CSC, never have been and never will be.
I was race coordinator for the VCM series for many years, the reason for the clash
 is CSC do there own thing and dont care about anyone else.
The clash effects one or two only, no big deal.

The VCM series is run on behalf of Motorcyling Victoria and is the offical Victorian championship series, classes range from pre 65 - 70 to evo, juniors, sidecars, as per the rulebook.

That is Good Frank, But whether you care or not, The CSC has done a lot for vintage mx and so have the men behind it, and you fellows are doing well too, plus the CSC helped the
sporting club in the early days of survival.  To help the sporting club to save the track I think they should tender for the  2010  Australia Titles next year at easter, plus l would add CD7 as well that would help build the numbers and l would invite the premier of victoria for the day`s event to show him what the sporting club is trying to save. Import some of the old factory riders pre 70, pre 75, pre 78, pre 80 era to come and race on the day. their are some ideals to help geelong sporting club. (Air fares are cheap now.)

I'm not riding at the moment, but I might come down with the old man for a look on the day.

For anyone thinking about riding this weekend, support the VCM & SMCC and get down to Barrabool. 

Correct me if I'm wrong for this year Frank, but if you have an Evo bike, you'll be able to do 6 rounds (you can also ride in the Pre78's for zero points). 

This is a good track & well setup for the old bikes when they visit.

Yes if you have an Evo bike you can race pre 78 and get three extra rides, no points or trophy.

Entries are solid, weather looks good, track groomed with natural terrain section, rare chance to race vintage bikes on the famous Barrabool circuit.

Bring it on.

If you have not pre entered and intend to ride just enter on the day, no problem

The Sporting club could run the titles, VCM had discussions with the Sporting club in the past. Simple fact the profit margins are not good enough for the effort involved, make more money running a one day VCM or Viper event.
Perhaps your beloved CSC could bring the titles back to Victoria, I would imagine running to the GCR's with Pre 78 & Evo classes would be a problem.

Why would pre78 be a problem, if a club like CSC or any other club for that matter the club would have to stick to the GCR , and if pre78 and pre 80 is legal and in the vintage rules then their would be a problem, the CSC WOULD HAVE TO RUN THEM.

mxmaniac, No You could not run your Maico 490 at a round of the Classic Scamble Club Series and I suspect the natural terrain tracks that the CSC race on would not be much of a challenge to you.The CSC races Are Pre-75 only and the tracks are set in undulating settings to reflect what was used in the period.The Maico would be a blast around Barrabool, Regards Terry..

The grass tracks with no jumps in undulating hills that the VCM guys run are great fun, probably similar to your tracks? They are best 2 events of the year i think, just got to get my lazy arse back in the vintage saddle and enjoy whatever is on offer. 8)  Being just under 30, it is great to see the pre 75's in the flesh, thanks to them deciding to let the evo boys have a play, alot of us guys who rarely see them got to watch the Herbert boys and smith boys show what they are capable of.  I wish i could of made the trip to VCM at barrabool, but got other commitments this weekend. :'(

Glad you enjoyed the natural terrain VCM events at Mirboo North and Stony creek, looking forward to seeing you and the family at Mirboo and Stony creek later in the year.
Please bring the 81 Maico with you as it can only add to the spectacle.
CSC club cut off is pre 75, pre 78 and EVO are not catered for and never will be.

wouldn't it depend what is written in your constitution of your club and not the GCR's
