A big shoutout to Ken and the team @specboltfasteners for saving the day with a second shipment of a bolt kit to suit my DT after Auspost lost the first kit.

QMP Pro MX Recap 🔥
We had a great time.
Luke Weaver P2 overall 30-39yrs Vets, with a moto 2 win !
Nate Perrett Qualified for the MX3 class on his 125 as the youngest rider on track, gaining valuable experience in a stacked class.
Brock Flynn 10-7 moto scores for 5th overall, a career best overall, edging out some of the factory riders.
Brocks YZ250F is equipped with our 2nd Injector kit, VP Race fuel & our KYB Factoryline suspension package.
As the highest placed privateer for the last round we are stoked to see our Suspension & Engines services competing with the Factory bikes & delivering that privateer connection !
It’s now time for SX SZN 🤘🏻

Stoked to see I made the last sequence of video from the latest @mxstore@ballardsoffroad Thumper Nats video. On the mighty DT 🤣
Definitely be cool to see the Thumpernats come back, it was the series to race and watch when I was in my late teens.
Bought this 1981 Yamaha DT175 for $500 from a friend of my uncles In Cessnock NSW, my great mate @merrison116 was happy enough to transport it up to the sunny coast for the obligatory fee of a box of Northern.
A couple of months doing a budget build in time for @classicweekend 2023, Under the mantra of if it blows she blows, I proceeded to wing it with outstanding results. It was the best weekend riding I’ve done in quite sometime.
With classic weekend 2024 locked in, I went about searching for some more power, 1st up was the Columbian pipe from @dirttrailmoto , A late model head was sourced from @dtdanzgarage I went about modifying it with the help of @mxrp_hq to my specs in search of power. Add a freshly ported cylinder, piston, rings and reeds.
I decided to jump in the deep end and have a test run at a round of Conondale Grass track series and to my surprise we ended up bagging a third in the Evo class against a lot bigger capacity bikes.
For 2025 I decided to update the look and give the bike some fresh grips and graphics, the frame got a mild Dulux rebuild and fresh pivot & wheel bearings.
I can’t wait for the weekend of epic riding, supreme banter and awesome time with everyone

On this day 18 years ago you came into this world and changed our life forever and for the better. You have taught me so much in these 18 years and I’m proud to have seen you grow to the man you are today.
We are so proud of what you have already achieved in your life and can’t wait to see what the future holds for you from this date forward.
All the best on your 18th birthday @jeremyp_95
I love you even though I still can’t believe my little guy is 18
Our boy is 18 @shelparisi (where did the time go 😳)
41 years racing dirtbikes and now I can finally say i’ve made it into @dirtactionmag thanks to a @joeyshep article about the @mxstore battle in the bush.
So much fun riding these events, everyone on similar powered machines , battling on the track and talking a lot more shit in the pits afterwards.
Thanks to everyone who I’ve met and had the pleasure riding with over the last 3 years.
Keen to get my slide on in a couple of weeks at Dust Hustle.
So today my 3D printer pulled me out of a jam!
My son had an issue with the drivers door window not moving or coming up when the switch is activated. We quickly found out that the regulator was working but one of the plastic guides that holds the window had decided it was over playing the up and down game.
A quick internet search found us a complete replacement for $150+
So in the meantime I also did a quick search online for a stl file that I could download and print a quick replacement.
2.5hrs of printing and we have a solid PeTg regulator slide guide. A bit of swearing and sweating we fitted the part and got the car back into service.
The printer saved us a couple of days and definitely saved the bank account in the interim.
Thanks again to the dude that designed the file I downloaded, works a treat.

Thanks again Mick, what an epic day of DT carnage around the Green Park MX Track.
Big shoutout to @ninetwodecals for getting my new @akinmoto jersey transferred up ready for Classic Weekend in 7 weeks time.
Thanks Mick it’s greatly appreciated.
Can’t wait.
