Goes without saying that the usual Hersden lot will be racing.

Muttley
Mr Rusty
Zippy
KDW712
Meddle
Buckmore Bat
TNT
Extremepervert
Humps

This is shaping up to be the biggest old school meeting outside of MK this year at this rate. Be nice to see lots of race virgins turn up.

Oh by the way how about a mums race?

zippy hopefully we can added neil region 11 and mr bob of acid too  :daumenhoch:

do you think we should get a pre race reg thread going so tony can draw up a list before hand
even if a few dont get there he can just cross them off ? thoughts ?

At this rate we might have to cancell all the other clases just to make room for the old school main event.

To be honest hersden has always had a very big turn out for old school and I think the record was 16 riders at the meeting RADBMX sponsered. Even "Mr Air" himself raced at that one. This however will eclipse everything that's gone before. I can't wait.

If your other halves are giving you grief, just offer to drop them off at the Macarthur Glen desinger shopping outlet in ASHFORD only 20 miles from the track.
Cant say for sure will make this round.

T.K. a quick question for you, do you run a,b,c finals etc, because theres gonna be a lot of riders there with a possiblity of 8 gates of riders, so with a 4 man gate there is a possibility of 8 riders all getting straight moto wins. wow Im confusing myself here, but you get what i mean??  Cheers Tony

Post by: Mr Rusty on April 11, 2007, 10:45 PM
Quarters and semis I reckon - that'll add a bit of pressure to the gate !

Is there any way I can select who I race against or will all names go into a hat and be drawn randomly four at a time??  Any chance that could be done three times to effectively create moto rotation??  That sounds labourious but would be fairer than doing three motos against the same three riders each time.  If it helps I'll offer to do the draw and write up the race sheets.   :angel: Humps
Title: Re: Whos going to Hersden for the Old School Summer Series
Post by: kdw712 on April 12, 2007, 01:53 PM
i think moto rotation would be a good idea  :daumenhoch:

also think pre reg list might be handy too

Post by: Zippy on April 12, 2007, 02:32 PM
I like the idea of Moto Rotation considering how many of us there'll be.
