Mini Motard-OFFICIAL THREAD

Hi All,
I run the website http://www.vsmr.net specific to full sized Supermotards.

I am also involved in the push to get mini motards on the track at GPTC in South Morang on Melbournes outskirts.
Braxton Laine the Owner of GPTC is assisting in every effort to make this happen, and although the 50's Compound there gets a good workout on the weekends, It would be good to see some more 'pitties' set up with scooter tyres and come out for the track days every Saturday from 10AM.

As soon as numbers pick up Racing starts... :twisted:

Is there many riders out there currently with mini motards that would take advantage of this open practice track access?
If so, See you at GPTC this Saturday... 8)

Hi Muzzard

Just read your post and I thought I'd reply to offer some encouragement to yourself and anybody contemplating getting into mini motards.

We have been racing mini motards weekly at Archerfield (Brisbane) since early May. The numbers have been up and down mainly due to lack of publicity but they are always exciting and spectacular and a real crowd pleaser.

Keep pushing and the numbers will build as the word spreads.

If anybody in or near Brisbane is interested in giving it a go come to Colebard Street Archerfield or Ph 0407 738 033 for more info.
Practice Saturday 8am - 12:00 ($15)
Race Sunday - 4 heats and final ($30)

Good luck 8)

what bikes have been running? 50's or 110/125's?

No takers to speak of as far as the 50's go - mostly 110's with some 125's.

Don't have any links to refer you to. If you live in or near Brisbane you should visit the track and ask the riders. If you can't visit let me know and I will ask for you.

Riders are using 10" rims and larger ones as well. I will check that out as well.

Incidently we have a section of dirt including jumps etc that the riders use.
