SA. Pt Elliot Pits, pocket bike racing

[geezus18]

Hey fellas,
anyone goin out tonight to the pits for a ride or a watch. I know i am ill be pimpin out in my mums car (bytes4) with the video camera crankin! come over and say hi..and let me have a ride

I was talking to the owner about pit bike motard racing and he siad its a definate possiility. He need to see how the public react to the pocketbikes and go from their. The bikes have to be quietened to 96 decabels to be legal to rode there (they let it up to 106). So im guessing some kind of baffle or extra muffler will be needed. also slicks and an oil/fuel catch can. Hope it all goes good..id love to get the knee down on the pitty lol

catch ya, Michael

Hey Pitmaster & Geezus18.Great footage there !!..The rider on bike 6 in the orange leathers is my daughter Morgan she is only 13 and rides Pocket bikes and Pitties and beats all the boys normally !!!.The fist pic shows another of my sponsored riders Keir Doe in the Blue /White leathers giving some pointers to his son Simon who is new to pocket bike racing.I am the ugly goose with the Polini cap/Green jacket on next to my open Comm Station wagon talking to some buddies.I Didnt know you were there guys you should have come over and said Hi !!
We had a ball riding at the Pt Elliot pits again last nite !!
Gerald the track owner is keen on the idea of running Pitbikes on the track But getting the bikes down below 100 decibels is a must !!!.The track sign/girder that straddles the track main straight at about 3/4 point is too low and is a safety risk for Pitbike riders.Gerald is thinking possibly lifting it higher or removing it altogether.Hopefully Gerald will be running Sat arvo rides which will make things less of a rush/hassle for us "Townies"!!!

Ps .Pt Elliot Pits ride times are currently 6pm till 9pm !!

Cheers Brian

Hi Brian, next time ill try find you and come say G'day,

was a top night, cant wait to get my own soon maybe even by next meeting

yeah i saw your daughter racing, shes quite good, plus there was a little girl maybe 7 or so, that was giving her bike a great run!

Cheers

 

[geezus18]

Hey guys, i rocked up just as you were leaving i spose Paul..i got there just after 8
The little girl on the pocketbike stacked it just after i got there..and yer Morgan your daughter is a fair gun. I was wondering what the little blue flickers on the bikes are as they get a wrist full out of corners?
I was talking to my mates about that pole thingy on the straight and i thought it would be fair dodgey!

Brian (maylands) are fibreglass reeds considered a "mod" ???

[pitmaster]

Thanks for that Brian

[geezus18]

spray it commodore green (like on the vy's onwards) that would be pretty sick!
id bring my helmet but then id have to pay 10 buks just for a few shots...o well, thanx anyway!

 

[pitmaster]

its been annouced that

"2nd of June we will be running practice meets on alternate Saturday evenings from 5pm til 9pm"

thats at Pt Elliot pits

what a perfect way to spend a lazy sat arvo at the pits

 

[geezus18]

are the tuesday meets still going ahead or swapping to saturdays?

 

[Maylands Performance]

Woohoo thats great news !!!.Tueday nites are a blast but its a killer getting back to Adelaide and into bed at 12 or later !.Many more riders will drive on down to Pt Elliot Pits now !!.I reckon it will be a good oportunity to drop in at the local pub for a quick frosty and a meal on Sat nites as well..

Pitmaster you do realise that as soon as you give the little beast a paint job it is then doomed to be dropped and trashed the 1st ride !! It Happens everytime Dude!

Cheers Brian
