Winton August 11th

[Iceman]

After talk'n to Ross and Jo yesterday, they thought it would be a good idea to get afew of us together at the track for a bit of a fuck around and a piss up afterwards.

To break with tradition, I thought I'd post it with more than one days notice. So Friday the 21st of July, pack the bike and an esky full of piss on the trailer and 'get your backside trackside'.

Or check out http://www.wintonraceway.com.au/?item=5927&PHPSESSID=d1f215ef8b07d04002cfffecfc283d6c for a date that suits and we'll get it sorted.

[Gsxar]

Top idea Clint we were planning on the same thing.
Only thing with the 21st is, There is a Hartwell race meeting on the that weekend, so Friday will be a practice day = lots of bikes / lots of fast people.
So we were thinking the following weekend might be better?
Whatever the date I'm in:D:D
Whats every1 think? Come on Victorians get on ya butts[:p]
$100 each to ride, and we can stay at Trekkers rest up there, its cheaps and lots of room for bikes and to bbq and party.

[Iceman]

28th is cars only Jo. Have to be the 4th of August.

[Gsxar]

Cool, My votes for the 4th then, but will go either way :D:D
Damn it
Forget that :( just checked the date and I have to work on the saturday

[Iceman]

11th ???

[TurboKat]

Count me in, 4th or 11th are cool by me.
Weather dependant obviously.

[Gsxar]

Okay I say we make it the 11th of Aug
So sign up now:D:D
Arranged a few people already should be a good day / night :D

[kevkatana]

Count me in. Should be a blast. Ok by me if it's wet,scored a set of full wets for nuthin'.

[TurboKat]

I'm in, do we hafta book in advance for a private practice day?
I reckon we all stay at Clint's joint on the Fri night after the event - he'll put on free piss, grub & hookers for us. [:0];):D

[Iceman]

I'll do a roster. Darren your changing nappies. lol

[God]

Think I'll be in NZ. If not would be interested in ride up after work for Fri night.

[Booster]

11 aug sounds good to me [:p] be good to meet a few from the board.

If anyone can't wait that long there's a Champions day at Broadford on the 22 July, i'm hoping to get to that too.

[Deano]

i could be keen just have to score the day off and get a bike running.

[kevkatana]

Hope it's still on.I've got the day off and got a few others taging along.Are we going to take over a hotel/caravan park friday night? Might need to sort something soon.

[Iceman]

I'll be there for sure Kev. Would love to put on a BBQ at my place, but unfortunatly with the new baby it's just not an option at the moment.
Jo and Rosco usually stay at the Trekkers Rest. They are located on Kilfeera Rd. ph. (03) 5762 3535.
I'm quite happy to show everyone our crappy pub scene on the Friday night. I know one of the pubs will have a band on that night.

[Deano]

[Iceman]

Yeah, I think we all agreed on the 11th.

[Gsxar]

We also have a few coming will check up who is still keen

Woooohoooo is this the 1st offical ASF track day:D:D

Or else you'll miss out on all the fun[?] I don't really know what I meant be that either!

You probably shouldn't go into work with that nasty cough anyway ;).

[RR-711]

Fri 11th aug it is all sorted then, Sounds like its guna be a top day and with plemty a time to talk shit about how slow those Moto GP bikes are LOL[^] (after many an encouraging brew ofcourse[:p][:p]) Sounds like we guna have a good crew too :D:D. Hey Turbo ya think this would be a good time to discus straight liners? Every one in one place, just been ridin all day and full of piss ;)[?]

[TurboKat]

Sounds good to me Rosco, I won't be staying the night (workin Satdy morn.), but I'm up for the pub after the track fur shur.
I hafta admit, I'm spewing it's at Winton & not The Island, I fuckin' HATE Winton [V]:( It's a tight, flat, featureless, boring, cunt of a track that'd be ideal for Go Karts but not much else, even Broadford would be better. It wouldn't be so bad if I had my Motard going, but I've been a bit lazy lately with the cold weather 'n all.
Bring on The Island I reckon. [:p]

[RR-711]

Totaly agree mate i reckon its pox too and now its slippery also.Broadford would be good with its new surface ........ hhhmmmm might look into that,shit load closer too. Doin a track day at the island in late sept but sorry mate only real bikes can go its gsxr`s only :D:D Put on by suzuki

[RR-711]

just checked out broadford $100 to ride $10 track maintanance and $15 day licence so for $125 you ride from 9 till 4 satdy or 10 till 4 sundy or $100 at winton, but it would work out cheaper (coz fuel costs the same as beer[}:)])they reckon they have track days most weekends if there is no racin on

[kevkatana]

Hey ya all. Who's staying on the friday night? Would anyone be interested in getting a dorm room or something similar at the Trekkers Rest? If I get some numbers I will look into it.They also do group discounts.

[RR-711]

Gday Kev Jo and I are deffinately guna be there its not flash but its clean;), n theres heaps a room for trailers n that. Theres sheltered bbqs/party area even has a pool table should be a top night[:p]. Thinkin bout putin the video on me bike so we can all laugh at how shit i am lol [:o)]

[Iceman]

Hey Ross, ya gunna do that trick were you slide along the ground again?

[RR-711]

Do you know how hard that is? I mean to crash a bike with out doin any damage, took me years to get it right lol [:o)]:D. Ill try not to be a tool thats your job Ice ;)

[Iceman]

[:p]

[RR-711]

Cmon ya wooses whos comin n whos stayin:D

[glenpick]

[Iceman]

Have you guys sorted out whose stay'n Friday night and whose go'n home? Turbokat and Deano were work'n on the Saturday, what's everyone else do'n?

[RR-711]

I think most of the Suzuki riders are staying lol:D Come on Turbo pull a sickie[xx(]

[Booster]

I'm gunna hang out for a drink or two after, but only live 50 mins from the track so home for dinner.

[TurboKat]

Pullin' a sickie is no drama but if my 2 mates are lobbing (neither are sure yet - work commitments) I'll probly tow up with them so I'll see if they're keen to stay. Either way I'm up for dinner & a couplafew after the event.
Have Foxy, Gibbo & Doc actually said they're in?
Better start making my vidcam mount.

[RR-711]

Still tryin to guilt em into it Turbo lol ;) Makin a mount also not guna be too flash tho coz ill probly bend it lol [:o)]

[gibbo]

Looks like I'm out:(, I gave notice at work the other day, 4 weeks as I've been there over 10 years (law):(. Finish up on the 14 aug. so that makes the 11th my second last day, not likely to get a day off[V]

[TurboKat]

Jeez mate, they'd be a bunch of pricks not to let you go a day or 2 early after 10 years of loyal service wouldn't they? [V][xx(]:(:(
I could always call in a bomb scare for you [}:)]

[Foxy]

Who's lending me a bike for the track???[:p][:p][:p]

I still have to check with the boss......then tell the other boss (might as well start packing my bags now)

Will let you know.

If I can't make it to the track, I can always rock up and get pissed for the night though [8D]

[Iceman]

The track thing is purely optional, the getting pissed part was the main point to the whole occasion.

[Foxy]

Always is for me mate :D

[shano]

Gday all, got the track bike out last nite after not touchn it for a year n half, new batt,bit of pushin, aerostart and its a miracle it goes. Still a few things to fix up, so it looks like im in:D

[Deano]

fuck me its shano! good to see you making an effort. looks like we could have ourselves a suzuki versus kwaka war.

my money is on Suzuki.

:D:D:D



Given the odds...ie the amount of bloody Suzuki's, I'd say their in Deano's favor

Only need one kawasaki to win mate.
Wouldn't have mattered how many other horses there were in the race, Phar Lap woulda won regardless.
You just learn to keep the faith there Foxy. :)

[Deano]

well i guess time will tell.

place your bets!

[Iceman]

I'm not surprised that Shano got the bike going, what does suprise my is that he found his computer!

[gibbo]

Turbo, shits hit the fan big time[B)], not even sure if I am going to get all the money I'm owed:(. don't worry about a bomb threat mate, if you know how to make a real bomb email the details[}:)].

[TurboKat]

You fucked the boss's daughter again didn't you Gibbo. [:0][B)]

[shano]

shit foxy, thought at least you,d stick wth tha kwaka bloody turn coat. there will be no war deano, we race i win. cant wait to take the green machine to the island.

[sharky]

Just had a look at the map...be bloody rude not to turn up...114k's from Seymour.
No racing for me...unless I push the xjr around...but certainly up for the party. Might have to work the mornin so be there about midday.
So who's stayin overnight and where ?

[TurboKat]

Whey-Hey, the Deano vs Shano race is on again, it'll be just like the Fools all over again BUT SERIOUS THIS TIME ;)
Shano's on a Kwaka so my money's on him. [^]

[Iceman]

Hey Sharky, read it from the start, there's details for accom.

[sharky]

Yeah I'll be phoning Trekkers tomoro. Just wondered where everyone else was stayin ?

[Iceman]

I'll be at my house.

[Deano]

shane has moved his RDO's from monday and tuesday to Friday and monday so he will be coming along for a look see aswell. he wont be riding tho cos he's scared.

[RR-711]

Yer, but it was a fuggin big horse (BTW is horse power based on a normal horse? a clydesdale? or a shetland pony?) AND it had a dirty great huge pump in the middle of it.

When I posted I was thinking more along the lines of the jockey rather than the horse.......

Now that I know you'll be on a Kwaka... the Odds have gone up :D:D:D

P.S. I've only ever owned one Kwaka (and thats only been since Feb) all the rest have been Suzuki's apart from a yamahahaha (but that don't count)

[Gsxar]

I booked our accommodation at Trekkers rest so hurry up all ;)
Double room $45.00
Room for 4,8, 10 people $25.00 per person
Plenty of rooms available but she said book in quick to be sure.


Think I shall have to bring the Suzuki flag with all this manufacture rivalry;)[:0]

[gibbo]

Turbo, he doesn't have a daughter only a son, oi! stop right there you filthy bastard:(.If he doesn't come good with the cash I'll fuck him, alot[}:)][}:)][}:)]

[sharky]

All booked up....but rooms are running out fast :D

[kevkatana]

Booked up at the trekkers tonight. Me self, mate Scott(7/11) and oldskool are definite. Gunna look sweet as driving up with a trailer full of GIXERS.:D
2 weeks to go.[:p][:p][:p]

[TurboKat]

Hey Ice, I noticed you haven't ACTUALLY said you will be on the track on the RF so I'm calling you on it [:0]
You in or not you big PollyPrissyPants?
(This is Iceman if he's not riding > [:X])
No pressure ;)

[RR-711]

Ha Ha Stand and deliver Ice ;) (he`s a big Ned Kelly fan) Ned would`ve riden lol :D

[Iceman]

Ned would've stolen someone elses bike, shot some coppers and fucked off. As for me though......... you'll just have to wait and see!

[Iceman]

What time does everyone expect to be at the track?

[Booster]

I have to get kids to the bus so probably ~9:30, I'll be in a crappy old ford ute carrying a 96 gsxr (fluro orange wheels model).

Iceman i can bring that turbo if you want to check it out.

[Gsxar]

Me n Ross will be there about 9.30 guys aprox. Be lookin out for ya Booster we`ll be in Ross`s patrol with 2 gixas on board,see ya soon :D

Told Si I would try and make some flags, well the airbrush was a failure and stuffed so it went in2 the bin. Got an idea for a better version but waiting on Foxy;).
So late the other night ( with u guessed it no painting or artistic skill:D) decided to try and paint the logo to hang up at Winton. Not finished yet, pretty big and better than nothing :D:D

So all you artistic peoples get off ya arses :):) and make some honky 1's

[Gix11]

Nice effort there Jo. When I first flicked down the page i thought it was a shirt haning up to dry for some reason, and then I saw your legs! It's pretty big hey? Looks good. If you want to cheat and get it spot on, get some transparent A4 paper/plastic and stick it in your printer then print the logo I gave you onto it, then project that image with a light source of some kind (a projector would be perfect but a torch or something would work as well) onto your material and trace the outline to get exact shape. Saying that, yours is bloody great. Fooled me!

[sharky]

I'll be there around midday...Whats the score for spectators...Do they charge to watch you guys sliding around ????

[Iceman]

quote:original quote by Sharky

...Do they charge to watch you guys sliding around ????

Nah mate she's all free.

[gibbo]

Jo, I have an overhead projector and some transparencies if you want to borrow them. You'd be able to photo copy the logo and project it like Gix says.

[sharky]

So what facilities are there at Trekkers Rest ?
Do they have a BBQ we can use...and a fridge....???
I guess we all just head down the shops after the racing and stock up ?

[Iceman]

I'm guess'n we'll figure it out on the day. I can point everyone in the right direction for all your bbq needs.

[Gsxar]

Yep there was absolutely no preparation for the flag, about 1 o'clock in the morning grabbed my T-shirt and thought hmm I might paint a flag lol Cool Gibbo I might do soon as I get time.

Trekkers rest has Bbq's and all that there.
Any1 checked the long range forcast?

thats a pissa Jo, if i had ASF bedsheets the ladys would be queing up at my bedroom door,oh thats right,they already are.

[TurboKat]

Forecast for Frydy is fine, sunny & 15 deg. :D:D:D:D
Victoria - beautiful one day, perfect the next. ;)
Ice - I'll be calling you at about 6am for a local weather sitrep, OK by you?

[Iceman]

I'll tell you now it'll be cold and dark!
Feel free to call just don't be offended if I don't answer the phone.

[TurboKat]

Didn't you say you had a new baby??
Shirley you'd be up by then?

[Gsxar]

Just spoke to a friend up there, weather lovely,sunny and more of the same expected - if it changes it Clints fault :D why? no other reason than he lives there [:p]
Going to head up later tonight, cause stuff getting up at 5am[}:)] I'm not much of a morning person lol

[Iceman]

Darren, just cause the wife and baby are up doesn't mean I will be.

Jo, fair enough.

someone pack the camera

[sharky]

If anyone is heading up the Hume in the morning and has a problem/breakdown etc I can be contacted on 043-756-3044 from 6.45am onwards. I am in Seymour and have access to a bike trailer in an emergency (from about 8.00am).
I plan to leave for Winton about 10.00am.
Oh and I'll have me camera, batteries and charger with me.
[8D]

[shano]

have fun people,wont be able to make it tomorro[V].the dyno run on monday highlighted a few problems with the zxr. its now being sorted out by victorias finest specialist motor cycle mechanic.will be ready for the next one at the island:D:D:D

[TurboKat]

But I thought you wanted ME to sort it [V]

[Iceman]

C'mon Shano, just cause the bike's not raceworthy doesn't mean you can't just have a day out and get on the piss!

[TurboKat]

He's got you there Shano :D
