iris123 20,936 Posted January 9, 2011 Following his participation in next week's Under-16 125 Individual and Pairs at Sidewinders in Adelaide and the completion of this year's OzChamps he's down for a week's intensive training camp in a secret North-western location in Victoria which for the sake of clarification I'll identify as not a million miles from Mildura under the personal tuition of a recently-retired former Ten-time Australian Solo Champion. If HE can't bend Arthur's ear in the right direction who can? Phil Mackay - a former King of Darwin sidecars and Arthur's mentor & mechanic for the last seven years, reckons he's the greatest talent we've ever produced, while Queensland Fans who'd never seen him until tonight were blown away with his riding style and strength of character. If you watch the 350s Final which Lance has posted you'll see he completely blew the start but by the beginning of the back straight he was totally in control and never headed. Previous to that he had a thrilling match race with Jack Holder - no mean talent himself - and came out on top after a tightly-contested tussle. He's the real deal. I'd have to say he is one of the most talented riders i have ever had the pleasure of watching.Came over and gave all the top Danes a real scare.And that was on borrowed bikes!!!Hope the lad stays with speedway and continues to progress.But i wish him all the best regardless.Phil and Arthurs dad were also great i must say Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigFatDave 258 Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) Since the opening round of OzChamps at Parramatta has been cancelled, tomorrow night I'm going to - Parramatta! Occasion is the $10,000 to win Sprintcars meeting, featuring American drivers Tony Stewart - yes that's right, the NASCAR Ace, along with World of Outlaws stars Donny Schatz; Joey Saldana; Cody Darrah; Jason Sides and Shane Stewart. They'll be taking on some of the best of our Aussie speedsters including Territorians 'Bad Boy' Benny Atkinson and Daniel Goldoni, Saint's son. Other top Aussies on show include ex-Oz No 1 Gary Brazier; Ian Loudon; Kerry & Ian Madsen; Grant Tunks and Adrian Maher. Any Solos fans in Sydney feel free to join us, 4 wheel Speedway is better than nothing at all, and the Things with Wings will put on a great show - weather permitting! Long Range forecast for Round 1 at Kurri Kurri on Saturday is fine with light N/E Seabreezes with a top temp of 32 degrees. . While I'm out partying you're welcome to check on what else is going on Downunder on this site - http://australianspeedway.com/forumdisplay.php?f=61 - just mention my name amd don't be surprised at the reaction.

BigFatDave 258 Posted January 11, 2011 My travel plans have been changed (with the kind help from Spider) to take in Broken Hill 26/1 and Mildura 29/1. Plus I will be attending Gillman 22/1. I'm likely to attend all Sidewinders meetings. Could you do me a favour and remind me of the dates and start times please? Ta Geez you don't want much do ya! Gillman the usual times are Gates open 5 p.m. Racing starts: 7.30 p.m. Sidewinders haven't updated their Website since August last year, but the dates at the moment are: 20/01 Under-16s 125s Australian Championships Qualifying meeting; 21/01 Under-16s 125s Australian Championships, Featuring Under-16s 350 Champ Arthur Sissis; 23/01 Under-16s 125s Australian Championships Pairs. Usually Gates open around 5.00pm, so we'll just have a few with Rob at the Royal whatever then meander down there - don't forget it's a dry venue, so I'll be relying on assorted other means to achieve that inner rosy glow! The good lord alone knows what time Broke 'n 'Ill will start; usually with Ozchamps the party starts when we arrive. An ol 'mate of mine lives there; mad Prawn Trawler skipper and his missus - I think he's fallen out of love with the sea, but I doubt if he's forgotten how to party. Mildura you should remember, you were only there last Tuesday! Gates open usually around 4.00pm, racing about 7.30 when the sun's gone from turn one. Hopefully we won't need Gumboots like North Brissy - mine are still being held as evidence in that Rock Wallaby Molestation case back in Darwin. Incidentally I've got a lucrative little earner going at some of these tracks: I'm capitalising on your amazing resemblance to a certain Polish World 500cc Solos Champion, so don't be surprised if you have to sign a few autographs, and don't forget there's a 'Z' in Tomasz. I'll split the proceeds with you after I've deducted all my expenses of course, but your share should be enough to at least cover the price of the U-beaut Black Texta I'm gonna sell ya! Trust Me!!

BigFatDave 258 Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) For those of you with an interest in the minutae and exotica of a wandering Speedway Fan's Travels around Oz you could do worse than visit here and keep up with BigFatDave's Epic Adventures. Currently in transit to Kurri Kurri (in a pub in Maitland) for Ozchamps Rd 1. Quick update - I'm in Speedway Central - Hunter Valley division, and through a stroke of good fortune my accomodation has been upgraded from the dog box - apparently she's having pups and refuses to share.
