I have been offered an event for sidecars to take place in. A sprint meeting at Heathcote mid September.
If we get 6 outfits attending we will have;
- Unlimited practise runs
- Competition to take place ina form of minimum of two runs with first over line moving to next round.
- Entry fee of about $60
- Team members pay entry fee of about $15
- Appearance money may be possible if planning falls into place.
Racing takes place day and night with one day activity only. I have a farm near track to which people could retire if they want.
Please indicate interest so I have something to talk about with the promoter OCD Racing.
NOTE It will be a motorcycle / sidecar meeting only.
THE SENOIRS MEETING AT BROADFORD WILL BE ON
September 13-14 Senior Riders Roadrace Meeting Broadford HMCC , I shall make sure we do not clash if possible.

I thought you might.
Now can you plan the dinner and sleeping arrangements for everybody that comes.
Canwe settle for 3 course about 8.10 pm, slide show and music starting at 9.30 etc?

Hi John,
I believe that the Brass Balls team will be in for this meeting at this stage. So pencil 2 sidecars and maybe a couple of solos in for us. |

John, I think I can manage the meals how about rat sack sandwiches done three ways?. Might be worth maybe a BBQ or similar. Peen lives close...

Good news Max is turning up.
I too may be able to have the 900 kwaka, the motocrosser and perhaps the flames machine.
With Handicap sprints, you do not need to rev the engine out, just be consistent with each run and you may trick everybody.
We seem to be over the 6 initially requested so if the ACT can get a couple more from lower NSW we may have a fun time.
Since we were first asked to attend, the promoter of another sprint event has indicated they will stop promotion. This means that the Motorcycle ERxtravaganza may be the only motorcycle event, so more riders may attend.
WE may be in for a good time. |
