    I'm keen to see juniors coming through too but the fact the fast lil' buggers get to ride tracks like Ruapuna and Levels down South probably has more to do with their excellence than anything else. Those tracks are a helluva lot more technical and challenging than Manfeild.

    The kids are only paying a lousy $20 to enter a round as it is, probably don't even pay for travel, and get as many laps as the rest of the field that's subsiding them, and they've nowhere near the running costs of any other class. They have absolutely no reason to feel hard done by.

    Yeah, promoting the juniors is great, but if you reach the point where the folks who pay most of the money in entry fees can't see the point in rocking up then you are heading down a slippery slope. 4 laps qualifying is crap and I won't be adding my $$$ to the kitty when it's only 3 laps at the 2 day rounds later in the season. For the same money I'd rather do a track day and get 60 laps instead of 22, and not have to worry about the guy who's spearing up the inside trying to get up to race speed in 4 min's.

    These last comments about track time and laps and......ah fuck it, you lot are just a bunch of whiners.
    Go ask a 100m sprinter if he/she thinks that the fast runners should be made to run 200m so that he/she runs about the same length of time as them.
    God, what a bunch of moaners.
    You either want to go bike racing and have races, or you don't. If not, fuck off to the trackdays and stop moaning about how the race meetings are organised.
    If it fucks you all off sooooooooo much, come and join the committee and organise the race meetings.
    Ah shit, the record's stuck again.

    I dont have a problem with the 3 or 4 laps for quilafying my self.
    Half of the people that are doing this season have already done a few and should have enough track knowledge to be able to get tyres warm after one lap then go hard for 2. its not a difficult track to learn so firts timers will have it by the balls after round one and be good to go for round 2.
    Hey another thing..... Vic club don't actually have to organise these meetings for us all to get our thrills so take it on the chin man up and be thankfull for what we have got. Thats my rant stop moaning and see you at the track suckers.

    There's a fair ol' difference between knowing how to run (which we've all done since shrugging off the nappies) and knowing how to go fast on a motorcycle when you mightn't have raced for a month or two. Fair ol' difference in the hip pocket if it all goes tits up too.

    But you're absolutely right, and I guess folks will speak with their feet. I appreciate what the Vic Club are trying to do but I can't help feeling this isn't one of their better decisions. But we'll see on the weekend, I'd love to be proven wrong.

    Please feel free to come along to one of our meetings and see first hand what happens. Be good for some people to see what actually goes on "behind-the-scenes".
