    14 races, so up 4 overall compared to previous format, and a point for getting pole position in qualifying.

    No goss mate, just not viable.
    We have taken to big a loss running this event for a while now (last 4 years)
    Tried a different approach, appealing to a greater variety of the public but still lost.

    Well done MNZ! Sensible number of rounds and races ( 2 per round would have been better though ), less cost and time away for all concerned.

    Would be keen to see how many laps etc each race is so we can order the correct compound rubber etc

    Shame about HDs and Teretonga, my 2 strongest tracks

    And I guess you had more than a few riders grizzling about the cost of entry? Dont you realise Graham that you should run as a charity?

    That Sir is the most original Racers Excuse I have heard this month

    Seriously though, a little gutted HD is dropped myself, however 5 races in my own back yard (and Team Air Force Racings Home/ Test Track) certainly makes up for it!
