It’s been six years since Grabham last lined up to race Australia’s premier off-road series but as a former AORC champion he wasted no time returning to his winning ways.

Grabham recorded back-to-back wins in the Vets class aboard his Beta 300RR with an overall time three minutes ahead of his closest rivals on both days.

“It’s has been a long time since I have raced one of these events so I was eager to get into it and see how I could go,” said Grabham after the event.”

“Soon as I drove into the Miva property I could see how green it was and how nice the dirt was looking, something I am not normally expecting to see in QLD. Saturday’s track was fairly tight for us but it was perfect for myself to get back into the swing of things. I am not going to lie, my lungs were burning trying to keep up but the Beta 300RR was so much fun and worked so well I was enjoying every minute of it. Results wise, I couldn’t have asked for more after winning every lap in my class.

“Sunday’s track layout was a bit more open and flowing and gave me a chance to open up the 300cc two-stroke, so I was excited for that even though the body was a bit stiff and sore from Saturday’s racing. Sunday was another great days racing as I won every lap and picked up another win.

“I am having so much fun at the moment, I get to ride a bike I get so much enjoyment out of riding and get used products that work. My biggest problem over the weekend was the rear GOLDENTYRE giving me to much grip so that’s a nice problem to have. Next up for racing is the A4DE next month.
