Practice Friday October 1st 9.00am - 4.00pm [ booking not required ]
Interstate riders and crews can come in Thursday night if it's easier.
Mount Piper Takeaways are M/C friendly and are in the shop next to the Supermarket. Worth a try!

If you want to enter any bikes in the lunchtime parade / zoom cos you are an old retired racer you are most welcom. You will need a Rec. licence we can issue on the day, a smile and your bike.
Just email me for the deatils which I can send you. |

 As at Monday 30th still very few entries for meeting rec'd!
C'Mon Guys and Gals get it together and send in your entries.
The earlier the better = much more pleasurable task for Race Secretary not having to cram it all into the last possible moments.
 You know you're going to enter so just do it! |

| Just reporting the meeting was another great sucess from our point of view. Good racing, good crowd, good sidecars and good coffee. What else is there to say, other than THANK YOU to all who participated it is the participation by each segment that makes the whole better. |

The paddock fairies told me you had a beauty, well done all concerned, can't wait to see some results and competitors reports on the improved track (the fairies were off the street spectators with little knowledge of the sport, they were bulk impressed).
The Mac Park meeting was a good 'un, final figures will tell us a lot more in the next week or two, the big winner was the track which didn't get the hacking it usually gets at xmas from the unlimited modern bikes.
A big thanks to whoever was responsible for the weather, it was fantastic. |
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we may as well dance |

Results of the meeting news.
For anybody interested, I will be sending all the times to the Formula Xtreme (Aus Superbikes), and MCNEWS web sites. Whether they put the information up on their sites is up to them. I have a feeling Formula Xtreme will. Scott Laing, Computime. Dave he would be able to give them to you if yo want. |

Dear John, You must be logged in to see this link.  is offered as a free service to class/post and P5 racers which you use freely "YET" you offer "others" the RACE RESULTS from Winton, before placing the results here, where the true "CLASSIC" motorcyclist look for information and results "Please" support the cluster/web fully. I have been mixed up with motorcycling racing since 1954 and this web is the best thing for the sport since sliced bread!!"BUT" to be the best web for "CLASSIC MOTORCYCLING we need TRUE reporters to post RESULTS. [this is from Allan Greening as a personal note not as WWWcmc.com.au  } |

| There is no evidence that I have freely offered results to anybody, I am not in that position I dont have electronic records of them. Just before you jump up and down, off site at about 8.05 am today, I have put the time keepers, Computime and David Greening in touch with each other to get the results published here. As being up myself, do you know how to spell "apology" |

After a completely mental week of getting things ready rolling thru the front gates at Broady first thing on Sat morn,a big broad smile erupted on my dial...
Pull up at the pit shed meet all the usual suspects,then start unpackin the outfit,tools,and everything else thats remotely needed for the weekend.
Get the bike up to scrutineering passes with flying colours,but not me.(and another competitor too)
No,Ive just renewed my licence and still hadnt recieved the paper slip.No racing for you my son or so I was told.
Enter 1 Heinz Schulter,Peter Wright MV,and my other half.Between the 3 of em a solution was made and young Neilly and fellow competitor made it out for qualifying with time to spare.
Thankyou Heinz,Peter and Tracey for your efforts for this.
Post Classic/Forgotten Era Sidecars
Qualifying,
managed to get third,
1 Max Hooper/Warren Grubb
2 Ron and Chris Trounson
3 Leon DeVries/Me
4 Geoff Irwin/Nicole Dunnolly
5 John Daley/Phil Treacey
6 Chris Large/Peter Heywood
The first race we got a good start only to get tangled up with Max unfotunatley trashin the new paint job but as the sayin goes "RUBBINS RACING".
As this was happening John nearly pounced around the outside makin it 4 outfits wide going into Turn 1,Exit Turn two and Ron leads Max from Geoff,Us,John then Chris.The rest is a blur with my bike starting to develop shift problems.
Not sure where we finished that one as I was a bit pre occupied with trying to get the bike in gear using the hand as well as Leons foot.
Did manage a second place trophy at the end of the days racing so I was pretty chuufed considering what had happened.
Sat night repair the bugger well sort of anyway.
Sunday-
Did 4 laps in prac all seemed to be a bit better it was now sometimes going into 5th gear as opposed to thrashin it round in 4th on the limiter y/day.
Race one saw John riding Maxs bike with Warren swingin and Chris Trounson riding the outfit he usually swings on with his old man.
Johns bike was out of action with a bent valve from yday.
Enter turn one it was Geoff from us ,Chris ,John,then Chris Large.
The 3 P5 outfits managed to just put a tiny gap on the P4 in lap 1 then kept adding as the laps increased.
Lap three Chris Trounson had a bit a moment at Turn 7 losing him a bit of ground on Geoff and Us,Lap 4 saw us have a big lose at Bay 13 aka Turn5 this was as we where just about to put it up the inside of him the rear stepped out and sent us around and of into the dirt/grass.To much throttle me thinks!!!
Managed to rejoin in front of Chris and finish 2nd.
Race Two SOUTHERN CLASSIC Feature race
Got of the line ok got 2nd gear then 3rd just said Im not playing anymore and bent the shift forks.Day over!!!!!!!!!!!
All in all though I still had a ball as usual and will be looking forward to next one in 2005
Well done and thankyou to the following
HMRAV
Cadburys
Scallywag Sox
Ray White Real Estate
Australian Motorcycle Trader
Mitchell Shire Council
Royal Enfeild Australia
Two Wheel Torque

Thanks heaps John (John Daley) for getting Scott Laing from Computime Race Timing Systems Pty Ltd to send them on out today.
At least we will put something up until I go and pretty them up a bit.

Sid Evans from Sid Evans Photography 0414 524235 was at the Southern Classic taking some great shots from round the circuit.
He took over 200 photos so he is bound to have one of you if you made it to the event.
Sid has agreed to come along to all HMRAV events and do what he does best,making us look faster than we really are!
I will ask Sid if its OK to use a sample of his work in the picture gallery or you can go to the HMRAV site and follow the links to the Photo Gallery section as they will be available in the next couple of days.
