Round Three of Bucket Championship at Sydney Motorsport Park South Circuit.

On the days preceding the event some of the worst weather seen  hit NSW, even snowing in parts of the State. It looked like some competitors might not even make it to the event.
 
However the weather forecasters were predicting a fine sunny day for Saturday and sure enough it  turned out to be a perfect day for racing. The event was at the the new South Circuit at Eastern Creek now called Sydney Motorsport Park the first time our Club held a meeting there.
The new track proved to be a big hit with the riders with very few complaints. All the Championships were settled and a great days racing was had by all.

As everything was new a few glitchs arose but were ably handled thanks to the efforts put in by the PCRA officials.

Get well wishes to Garry Briggs and Shane Wilcox two bucketeers that came to grief during the day.
