yep it was a ripper, it had a long down hill back straight that I would almost get the old yz400 flat stick. raced a inter centre combine there once and held out Mike Landman for 4.5 laps out of 5 he was racing a semi works yz400 at the time and I just wide on the second last corner and he got me. another near miss

Old "IRON" Mike huh! He has the biggest trophy i have ever see in his shed. I think it was for Mr motocross championship

What a day! First race for 35 years. Also first time I've ridden the bike and first time I've used right side shifting. Greasy track, off camber corners and bike not running below half throttle due to incorrect jetting (started first time on thursday). Peter Schoene rolled up and sorted carby (Thanks Pete!) Bike then running well. Only problem then was lack of rider ability. None the less I pressed on and despite being seperated from the bike a couple of times my confidence increased as the track dried.I think I was last in every race but I don't care because I was out there having a go. Thanks to EMMCC for their efforts and all the people who said g'day and offered help on the day and made me feel welcome. Cheers Jerry Bultaco #51

Great to catch up with you Jerry even though i got there late.

Track looked great although it must have been greasy first up. cannot go past the Gippsland tracks allways a fav of mine in years past.

saw some interesting bikes (some immaculate greeves and a very nice Jawa/Monark) but did not get time to have a good look around.

can someone tell me if that was Kell Ambertson i saw in the pits? i remember him from a Four stroke only race at wonthaggi in about 1984 when he had a Can Am Sonic, they were/still are trick units.
