| So far that i know that are definates are myself, brooksy, sic mic, and postie to ride. my brother has to go away for work. I have tried getting others to ride but are full of crap or just dont want to support it. Mingy and Myles are heading to Canberra for racing so i wish them the best and go hard boys. I would like to know how many we have got by sometime tonight so we know were we stand. I will ring the club late this afternoon and find out if they know of any more nominated. My number is 0418183391 so give us a call if you need to know anything. One day liceences are available. I URGE people to support this event otherwise the club will scrap us for good. Gammie89 would you been keen to ride? |

Dad and myself stopped and had a look at the track on the way back from Mt. Isa today. There is only 12 gates so the max we can run is 6 quads.  Extremely tight and technical track, I would recommend stock gearing with the saller tires, it is more like supercross than anything. Should be good fun.
Landy. My number is 0418 192 832. If you need Dad to ride to make numbers let me know tomorrow before lunch time and we will get his quad ready.

| Just rang around and good to say we have 5 DEFINATE RIDERS. Myself, Sic Mic, Brooksy, Postie and the glass man sumo. Tony might be riding as well, depending on how he goes at work. Machinery starts at 1.30 to 2.30. Riders briefing is at 2.45 and practices starts at 3.00pm. Racing willl start straight after. There are 3 rounds of 4 laps. To ride this track comfortably is to run standard gearing with little tyres or even a 12 front sprocket also. Flags marshalls are run by the S.E.S group which is awesome and the club runs a good quick meeting usually. The track bearly ruts out depending on the amount of riders. So far the weather is meant to be good but keep an eye out as it can change easy out there. And Postie it is SATURDAY NIGHT NOT SUNDAY! |

Hey Postie,
Clermont is holding a Practice Day on Sunday 9th if you are interested in calling in for a bit of a bash on your way home from Charters Towers. Starting approx 11am till 5pm.

6 quads lined up for the MX under lights. Officials commented on the fact that they were impressed.
SicMic pulled off the greatest "save" of the night over a set of whoops.
Results:
1. Landy68 (aka Gerard Land - Townsville)
2. Brooksy61 (aka Greg Brooks - Clermont)
3. Postie (aka Jon Thorne - Roma)
Photos to follow......

| Yeah it was a great night out there. Hopefully we will be out that way racing again soon. Lucky none of us crashed because some of those flagies where abit dodgy! Hopefully we can have more quads out there again because the club was impressed. Thanks again everyone who turned up to support it especially postie, brooksy and sic mic as it was abit of a drive for you fellas. |

It was a great night for all. Great track. Would have been better if my quad didnt self destruct.  $300 later the parts are in the mail to hae it running again in the next few weeks.
Thanks all for turning up.
Brooksy, can you please email any videos and pictures you have. Thanks.

You could upload them on photobucket and send the links or IMG codes.

Seen brooksys video of the last race. Sicmic pulled of 1 of the best saves I've ever seen  I bet your eyes looked the same as these smileys.... . | Quote: | | Have been trying to get them to attach to an email for the last couple of days but they won't. Any suggestions |
I have had trouble uploading video to photobucket, seems to be a file format thing. Youtube seem to take more format types. If you bring your camera with you Sat nite I'll load it to my laptop and convert it to an mpeg4 file for you..

Dingo. My eyes were shut... I just held the throttle on until the front touched down.  But I dont think the stains will come out of my nice red riding gear. 
Is the video on youtube??
