well i just got home from Raleigh. It was a long drive and i wish we could have been able to race but... these things happen i guess.
Once u get to see what this track looks like first hand you can realy get a grip on how awesome it would be to race a minimoto aroud it. its a Huge track and looks rather tricky, but heaps a fun !
Even thou it didnt go ahaed as we all would have liked , thanks anyway to all involved i understand that organizing something such as this wouldnt have been easy. Maybe this can be a round for next seasons calendar. i for one would make the trip again. It would be a sham to let this failure to race at Raleigh get the better of us, its such a good track.

Considering this was to be a national minimoto round in the championship did any of the interstate punters turn up ?

I wasn't there some would say I have no right to question this but why the bloody hell was this not sorted out months ago ?
And secondly if in doubt of the ability to say 100% yes the racing is on would on earth would you let everyone come all that way to race only to turn them away on the day.

Yeah very dissapointing. Just after I left the track it bucketed down with rain in Coffs, so there's a good chance it rained at the track and would have stopped us racing anyway.
