    Have racers gone soft?

    "Hi All,

    Late entry fees scraped ! Entries open until Friday !
    $130 (please check the entry form) to enter for club members.
    Get behind your club and race the nationals!

    Hurry hurry hurry entries close soon.

    Roll up and get your slice of the action.

    Go to http://www.vicclub.co.nz and download your entry form,

    Cheers
    The Vic Club."

    If you are a vic club member with a bike capable of entering a nationals class and you haven't you are SOFT.

    I'm selling my bike AFTER round 4 just so that I can support the vic club.

    If we don't support them do you think road racing is gonna grow??

    $130 for a lot of time on the track..................why wouldn't you??

    So take you T.V done to cas converters and get your entry in!!

    I just love generalisations. Some people might have good reason, despite having a capable bike. Good on ya for trying to motivate though.

    Oh - why don't you hold on to your bike until after the Cliff Hanger Hill Climb on 20/21 March and give Marc (Eelracing) some competition on his RGV ?

    Not soft are ya

    Last time I wandered into a vic club event, it didn't look like it was desperate for support. It was more like us desperate for a car park.

    And, (although we are the scum of the race meetings) it would be awesome to see a healthy grid of SS150's this year. We have always moaned that they never have a class for us and now there is so we'd better get some full grids!

    Of course the need to get support for a round of the nationals has NOTHING to do with the refusal to allow the club a date change from the same date a MAJOR meeting just over the ditch.

    I must admit (good reasons aside) I am supprised the club havent got more entries, I for one am at the back end but on test day times will qualify under the 115% on the 750 and those who have seen me out there know I am not special in any way. It has been commented on before the fast guys up the front have alot of talent and wont have any trouble getting by and lets face it at just about all levels of motorsport there is always passing of back markers, so come on ya soft fukas get your entry in and give me some company at the back!!!!
