like:
nice tight track
good close racing
maybe have series prizes across all grades
dislike:
event can be a bit slow early for senior quads because there first race isnt till about event 10
pitbikes (too slow and boring)
pit/start area needs to be better controlled - there's a lot of people wandering around who dont need to be on the start area and many without enclosed shoes in the pits. this could be a liability area for the club in future
parking - the parking area needs to be more regulated. particularly when you have people who turn up late and expect to park right next to the pits with a big trailer. maybe an idea would be to close the carpark area near the pits at a certain time
the last two are not directly related to the superx event alone either so its something that could be looked at for the pony's and other events through the year

the parkig and the pits are very valid points jimmy we have been trying to work out a better situation for the parking since last year but short of having a parking attendant that is very hard to police. i was thinking of increasing the parking but it is diffucult to do seeing as we are not supposed to clear any trees...

We did get permission to bowl those paper trees at the front before the grassed open area. They are full of white ants and it didnt it turn to swamp?

some light in the big parking area would be nice
wasnt fun trying to load up in the dark
bit of a security issue as well would be hard for some crack head to go through every ones car in the dark

A hose or sprinkler set up in the pits would be good and also water on the kids track so we don't dust out the carpark, i saw some people parking down in the water run off area and it was a good idea but i wouldn't have been able to to get down there.
Advertisement, we need more to get people there, it was an awesome turn out and that was awesome but i didnt see much advertisement other than ATVWA website, ive put your calender up at work but more spectators is more money, then all we need is for them to park somewhere.
But in all the years of being apart of ATVWA this is by far the best i have seen the club for racing and spectators love it, you cant get better than this for vision of racing.
Maybe bigger jumps would help the seniors but definetly bigger burms for some of the corners.
Oh and jim beam in the bar please ;D
All in all i love it.
Cheers Bill

some great points unfortunatley some are unotainable.
water for pits and kids track at this stage we are looking at maybe carting water in for the next event if we dont get an act of god between now and then...
as for the parking, this is an ongoing battle where the club is struggling to maintian the track at its current level without committing to any more major infrastructure, however i hope discuss this with the council representatives this weekend and see if we can get them to agree to some minor clearing to help out the access / egress and parking situation so fingers crossed on that.
again the burms are diffuclut to do but something we can do over time but as we have to bring every bucket of dirt into the centre area it is a time consuming and costly excercise so it is something we will try to do on a gradual basis.
i think we could definatley benefit from more advertising. if everyone could print a flyer and put it up somewhere local to them it would help greatly.
jim beam in the bar, drink a real drink get a jacks in ya lol....

from my families point of view we thought the side by sides were GREAT and when the pro 450s came out to play with the likes of Luke and Chris it was great to watch and both of these events brought all the spectators to the fence.
I went to the last mx night and the place had no buzz about it, meaning it was dead and not good for spectators.

Personally I think everyone should stop being a bunch of princesses but yeah. When does a good supercross track not have whoops hahahah. It even provided it's own entertainment |
