[GD66]

Ahoy there S-Moto, Azazl and co, haven't heard a peep but you guys are on the menu for the next HCMC race weekend at Collie : the thing is, you'll have to enter on our club entry forms, so tell your peeps to get onto our club website www.historicracing.asn.au and download the form, and get it in to our race secretary Carrie by June 2nd, that's two weeks.

Also for Streetbike riders, we'll be having a class for you once again on our practice/tuning/ride day on Saturday the 11th : cost is $80 for the day, $60 if you've entered the meeting, or $50 after 1:30pm. Plus a day licence for streeters. We will run classes for historics, sidecars, moderns and motards from around 10 am

Well done to all in the HCMC. A really good day was had in Collie and am looking forward to the next one guys.....AAA+++

[Neil-51]

Yep, I big thanks to all the HCMC officials and helpers. It was another great day and well run event.

It was also good to see the motards racing.

[GD66]

Thanks, Trumpy and Nev, a great day's club racing, good conditions and lots of fun. Thanks to all riders for their support and co-operation, makes days like these a breeze to run.

GD66: do you know if there were any photographers there on the weekend?

[GD66]

Hmmm, actually I did see a couple sign in Fridge, but I think they were just interested locals. If I do hear of any at our AGM on Wednesday night, I'll publish their details on this thread. Well ridden on the weekend, btw.

A short video of the "Moderns" Race 2 on Sunday.

Neil "Simoncelli's" new tactic of closing the throttle at the corner
exit ensuring any close followers are sent onto the gravel.

It's different and it works really well. The lens is wide angle so Neil looks further
away than he was. I went bush because I thought I was going straight up his date to end up riding pillion with him.

It was a great day. Thanks to GD66 for his Clerk of Course duties and all the flaggies and helpers. The weather was fantastic. What a great way to spend a weekend in the forest with all the fresh air mixed with racing fuel.

Thank you to all the helpers, marshalls, flaggies, riders who made the Supermoto's welcome and whoever else who was involved, it was a glorious day

It was fun watching you Motard blokes. The corner speed in Turn 1 was pretty impressive for half road half off road bikes. Left foot down and forward was different compared to the road race bikes.

Come back next time.

Like to know what lap times Christian Iddon was pulling before he ran out of gas when he did that lap record attempt at last season's nats : talk about blistering corner speed !!

[lit]

I was told he was he was 2 seconds slower than the lap record held by a 600cc sports bike. He was on a KTM 450.

I'm pretty sure it was under a minute. 57 or 58ish?

[Neil-51]

It is a different track layout for motards.

[lit]

Not always. We sometimes do the full road track but it is not as fun.

Chris was doing the full road track when he almost broke the lap record around collie.

EDIT: would be epic if he was doing the off road section and still 2 seconds behind the lap record.
