TWENTY FIVE Years of Bucket Racing
1988 to 2013
Bucket Racing Association of NSW celebrate 25 years of Bucket Racing.
However an excellent Dinner laid on by BRA President Ken Lindsay and his Mom Doreen and plenty liquid refreshments set the scene for a great evening that went on well into the night.
Sunday morning back to Kens place for an excellent breakfast and some more conversation ranging from serious to hilarious. However the weather refused to play ball and by midday everyone headed home.
Many Thanks to Ken and his Mom Doreen for their excellent meals and hospitality.

Great Start for Supermono Racers
The Supermono race bikes first outing in Motolites on the South Circuit at SMB had a brilliant start finishing 2nd overall with Steve Kairl on board. Steve on a 150cc Supermono and Raymond Perez (197 Supermono) fought race long duels with each other and the more established Motolite runners. The Supermono missed out on a double podium when Raymond stopped, out of fuel on the last lap.
Some brilliant riding by Steve kept the 150cc Supermono in the hunt to bring it home to a well deserved 2nd place.

Round Two of Bucket Championship at Sydney Motorsport Park South Circuit.
The second round of the 2013 PCRA BRA club championship held
on the South circuit at Sydney Motorsport Park had it's share
of delays but as usual the racing in the Bucket Classes was
excellent.
The Commuterlite class had it's own race
with 20 bikes now entered in this rapidly growing class. For a
spectator it was engrossing watching the line of
Commuterlites snake around sounding like WWII bombers flying
low overhead.
The second race had extremely close racing
with Ryan Young(20) 1st, Mick Johnston(62) 2nd and Nicolas
Wenban(48) 3rd all finishing within 0.5 second at the end but
all looking for an advantage into each corner due to
differences in gearing and style.
A following group
consisting of Ron Pulido(136), Andrew de Jersey(42), and
Anthony Marsden(86) all vying for 4th had a similar race. All
were riding Honda CBR125's.
In both Motolite races Jason Dunn(6) on his 2 stroke
RS85cr took the chequered flag from Stephen Kairl(79) on the
Big Bang Engines RS150CRFr who was
getting used to the Phantoms booming green 4 stroke with, Paul Borg sitting out both
races. Andrew de Jersey(42) (4
stroke CB200 )and Shane Wilcox(68) (2 stroke RS85cr) swapped
the next two positions in each race highlighting the well
honed Motolite formula.
Superlite PRO: Walter Murphy(38)
Honda CB150
gave a master class on the tight circuit putting it to some of
the Motolites beating Ian Gregory(169) in race one. Ian got home
first in the second race of the Superlite PRO, the emerging
pattern is repeated with Ken Lindsay(2) Honda RCB150 and Tim Smith(65)
Honda CB150 swapping honours for 3rd in the two races.
Superlite AM: Micheal
Lemon(26) Suzuki GS150 finished 1st in the Superlite AM class following a
mistake from Ryan Philips(25) Honda 150 who claimed 1st in the second
race with Micheal holding off a charge from Martin Kraaymaat(4)
Honda CB125 Twin
to take 2nd.

Round 1 of the 2013 PCRA BRA Bucket Championship.
The first round of the 2013 PCRA BRA club championship got under way on a perfect Autumn day. As usual the buckets put on an exciting display of close racing with a number of newcomers trying their hand at tarmac racing. For Championship Points Table. Click Here...
Motolites
Race 1
Jason Dunns 2013 Motolite season got off to a great
start with 2 race wins and maximum points score.
However he didn't have it easy in race one with a
sluggish start saw him in 3rd place behind #93 Paul
Borg (Sculley Honda RS85cr) and #43 Dan May (Honda
RS85CR) with Andrew De Jersey (Big Bang Engines
Honda RS150CRFr) next. Dan May did not come around
on the next lap so this moved everyone behind him up
one spot. Jason got his head down and reeled off 3
consecutive fastest laps creating the first lap
record time of 1:17.8710 for the new North circuit
pipping Paul for the win by 0.2 sec.
Andrew De
Jersey getting to grips with the Garry Briggs (Big
Bang Engines Honda RS150CRFr) came 3rd followed by
#4 Justin Hall (Honda RS85CR) for 4th.

Race 2
In Race 2 Jason made no
mistake and was never headed to score maximum points
on the day. Defending Champion Paul Borg finished 2nd.
in both races 2nd overall not a bad start to his
title defense. #43 Dan May tussled with #42 Andrew De
Jersey breaking clear on lap 3 and closed in on #93
Paul Borg, but in the end was half a sec. down. #42
Andrew finished up 3rd overall enjoying his outing
on the Green Big Bang Honda.

Superlite Pro
Race 1
#38 Walter Murphy (Honda CB150) set the first Superlite pole for the North circuit at Sydney Motorsport Park. He then went on to win the first race and finished 2nd in race two to take out overall honours for the day.
In race one #2 Ken Lindsay (Honda RCB150) on his brand new bike came in second . Next up was a rejuvenated Martin Kraaymaat on the Honda CB125T twin followed by #169 Ian Gregory (Honda CB150) and #65 Tim Smith.
Defending Superlite Pro Champion Fred Holland didn't get to the start line as during practice his motor started to blow smoke out the breather pipe accompanied with a big loss of power, so he was out. Not a good way to start his title defence.

Race 2
In Race two Walter got away well but Ian Gregory who had made a change to his gearing in between races was running strongly and on the final lap he slipped through and pipped Walter to the line. #2 King Kenny got embroiled in a battle with some Motolites and lost touch with the leaders but still came in 3rd giving him 3rd place overall, Not a bad christening for the new bike whose engine was only started before being put on the Trailer to come to the meeting.

Superlite AM
Race 1
Young Ryan Phillips (Honda CB150) dominated
the Superlite AM class with 2 wins and was
mixing it with the Superlite Pros riders. #41 Dan
Harrison (Honda CB150) came in a strong second
with #39 Greg Potts (Honda CB150) getting 3rd.
#101 Wes Bull on his uniquely painted (Honda
H100) came in 4th ahead of #31 Duncan Taylor
(Kawasaki KH100). #88 Mark Robertson did not
finish the first race and didnt get going again
so no championship points for Mark.

Race 2
In Race 2 Ryan was untouchable again showing great speed and continued to bother the Superlite Pro riders. Dan Harrison had found a good turn of speed and was much closer to Ryan in the second race. Greg Potts came home a solid 3rd with in fact the same finishing order as with the first race.

Commuterlites
The biggest entry yet for Commuterlites (16) took to the grid and as usual they didn't disappoint.
#136 Mayo Ron Pulido (Honda CBR125) had his maiden win. Ron won
both races in commanding style with
current Champ #20 Ryan Young (Honda CBR125) second
from a fast improving #86 Anthony Marsden (Honda
CBR125). Newcomer to Commuterlites Roger Quinlan
adapting quickly to the Commuterlites finished 4th
on his first outing in this very competitive class.
#18 Jack Robinson (Honda CBR125) and #72 Trevor
Berrange (Yamaha YZFR125, the lone Yamaha) tied on points with Jack
getting the nod as his best result came in the last
race. Down through the field quite a few battles
were going on with some exciting dash's to the chequered flag.
