    The exchange of trophies across the Tasman.

    Sam Smith did good work at eastern Creek on the weekend to win the Barry Sheene Memorial trophy plus a couple of other exciting races.Pete Lodge`s beautiful ES2 Norton did the job just grand. Huge congratulations to the team.It has become a high profile meeting and is attracting some interesting bikes and riders.

    Great news! I thought that Sam had given it away. Is he going to get back in to racing modern bikes?

    I looked at trying to get my New Era (pre '89) bike over there this year, but ran out of coin.
    Maybe next year. I'd love to have a race on that track, it has sooo... much GP history.

    Sam will be back on modern for sure man! He has far to much talent not to.

    Sam Smith
    Nick Cole
    Glen Skatchill

    And others, are NZ's young racing future main names

    Great to hear. It would have been a bit of a shame if the towel was chucked in after a couple of downers in recent years. Best of luck to him!
