It's a small track tight hair pin. nice sweeper on a gradant and a very techy shacain and a nice long straight not as long as Tam tho. Not many people in the club will be able to tell you alot about the track as there are only a very few still in the club that actualy raced on it back in 05-06.

No fraid not this time.. Track hire alone for the sunday will be a hard one to cover for the club... the day will run at a loss but there is a good chance we could gain new members from the day if we promote it enough.

I agree Orange, we are supposed to pay $10.00 for practice day , plus racing at $20.00

Make it $30.00 and all is well

Could do but the notice would be a bit short for most people to just bump up the price...
And I wouldn't be able to let Bjorn ride as $60 entry would brake me bank lol

Yip it's true my bike is worth a few G but I've had to work me ass off to get it and keep it running... at the mo it's running chinesse eletricts and clutch cause I just don't have the money to get the euro parts for it... but love the sport so much I pinch every penny just to turn up to the meetings.... not really the point tho as the price was set at the AGM for all meetings and changing it now would upset some club members.

Ahhhh I knew something was on around my birthday!

I might make an apperance with my not so small bike with my camera on my back and do some infield photos for you chaps if you have not already a dedicated photographer.

What are the track costs associated with this ?

How much have you got? :cool:

Spectators are free Leyton, how's that B1 going? or have you been too occupied with the 250.

A mixture of many and verious reasons, mostly fundage and time related, more time. The 250cc is acually alot cheaper to enjoy :) Minibike more fun though! but not by much hehe

When I can be bothered with some spare $$ I will get a barrel kit for the B1 and throw it back together and take it from there :)

Yea it was a mint day. Rain held off the the track was dry for the best part of the day apart from a few spits during prize giving. I did manage a ugly high side tho lol ribs are still brused and I think I may have done a bit of damage to me shoulder but was still a mint day.

@#$%!#$%#$@%$@# Dammit!!! Hehe I had all my stuff ready to roll that morning too. My camera was ready to roll that day, what a pain. Edgecumb is the next track day is it ?

Those damn high sides! Good you did not crack anything!

I still have not been bothered to seek parts for my B1 yet :/, Just needs a barrel/piston kit and I am away rolling again. I should take my flywheel to the old mans at some stage and inspect its roundness I am sure it will be fine.
