This round will see the traditional Harvey Wiltshire and Hughie Hoare feature races for the Superbike and Supersport classes respectively as endurance races at the Phillip Island round. The Harvey Wiltshire Memorial Trophy, which was first contested in 1951 and (other than 1965) has been competed for every year since. It is the longest-running trophy for road racing in Australia.

Recent winners include Brayden Elliott (2016) and Chas Hern (2015).

Trophies will be awarded for the first 3 place getters in each class at every round including B and C grade for Superbike and Supersport.

ATTENTION ALL HISTORIC BIKE RACERS! Looking for more opportunities to race your historic bike? Well you cannot go past the Preston MCC Bracket Racing Series.

Low cost, as you can use whatever bike you have available, be it a classic, modern or anywhere in-between, and there is no need to spend extra money to make it competitive in a class. The format is ideal for both new and current racers alike, with its friendly and low stress atmosphere allowing competitors to develop their confidence and skills without feeling like they have been thrown into the deep end.

BRACKET RACING 2017 18 & 19 Feb Round 1 Report Wow! What a weekend it was at Broadford State Motorcycle Sports Complex; road race circuit for the opening round of The Preston Motorcycle Club 2017 Bracket Racing Series. The event organisers, MV officials and volunteer marshals from Race Marshals Victoria were full of praise for all after a brilliant weekend of super close racing in all fields and the format of the newly introduced bracket racing series in Victoria. The advanced racing group, riding at in the 1 minute and under range set a pace that matches those riding at the top state level and gave us a great show, while in the same event, there were riders who were busy prepping and converting their road bikes and taking to the grid for their first ever race. Some were coming back after a bit of time off from riding, and were looking for a cruisy event to get comfortable racing again. Lap times don t matter so much, it is all about getting out there and experiencing racing. The Supermoto machines joined in for the weekend, and had a bit of a chance to play on the mixed road/dirt circuit in both wet and dry conditions. It was a weekend for all. As with the introductory round held in 2016, the most encouraging part of the weekend for the PMCC Bracket Racing 2017 hosts was the pathway that has been created for track day riders and racing enthusiasts to step into our beloved sport. Bracket Racing has given people the opportunity to have a taste of racing, without a lot of the pressure that comes with committing to a series, without any racing experience behind them. There is an open track day the day before each of the three rounds, where coaching is provided for those wanting to get their eye in, as well as getting some good advice before lining up on the grid. It was great to see some of the regular attendees at the MV Girls Only Track Days take the plunge and mix it up with the boys in the three qualifying sessions and five races. It is a lot of track time in a day, and those ladies were surprising themselves, and the competition with the improvements they were making. Results from the weekend, and for the 2017 Bracket Racing Series can be found at Computime Race Timing Systems. For new racers, this is the official link to bragging rights ;) http://www.computime.com.au/ The team at Preston Motorcycle Club can t thank everyone enough for embracing the new format of bracket racing, and bringing your A Game for the weekend. We are extremely grateful for the support and proud to have been able to get this gig off the ground. We hope it helps to give riders a chance to experience a different type of racing as well as introduce those with their toes dangling on the edge of the pool into the world of road racing. The next round will be held at Broadford Motorcycle Sports Complex on 7 & 8 October 2017. Details can be found at: https://prestonmotorcycleclubinc.wildapricot.org/page-18088
