[Biggles08]

Hey, Marcus is my name and I've been riding on the road for about 2 1/2 - 3 years. I've just decided to go racing only now due mainly to car drivers and car drivers with blue and red lights.

I have a 07/08 ZX6R and have recently pimped it with a lot of bling I bought from Jamie R in Taupo to compete firstly in clubmans and then moving into F2.

I competed for my first race at taupo in round 1 of the PMCC summer series and got pole position and won all three races. I have just completed in AMCC Round 2 at Pukekohe and came away with a second and first placing...

I will be competing at Taupo for the 3 hour endurance meeting on the 29th Dec so come along and have a look see....it will be fun racing up alongside the great Fred Merkel at this event!

Race number 808...if you see me at the track come say hi!

Marcus

Hey ya...Chris here.
I've attended a number of MotoTT trackdays but the Taupo Road Race Spectacular (27th-28th Dec) will be my first ever race (have only ridden a 600cc twice) plus I'll also be entering the B.A.D.D 3 hour endurance race on the Monday (29th Dec) too.
I'll be racing a 2007 ZX6R and my race number is '123'.
Any advice gratefully received!

Hi, My names Clynt & Im from the little hick town of Murchison in the Sth Island...
Been riding on & off ever since I got an SL 70 as a kid,but Ive only got into roadbikes over the last 5 years......& man I love the suckers!!!
Decided to start racing this year in Clubmans for the same reasons as many, the & the that frequent our roads in cages....the several track days at Ruapuna & Levels then cemented the idea that the tracks "where its at".
So Im pretty much racin' my bog standard 04 R6 at the mo., to see howd Id do at this racing game before I go spending money...its kinda hard to get sponsorship in the middle of nowhere.Plus I gotta cut the custard too eh!

So I started off with the last round of the Sth Isl cup & then went on to do the King of Ruapuna rounds which also included the King of Canturbury series.
Ive been pleasantly surprised by my race pace & also the consistant drop in my times....down 8 secs on my first race to a 1:46 now...slicks & warmers next year'll help I reckon.
So all in all its been an awesome season as a newbie...& I learnt that there is something to be said for consistancy as my placings all added up to winning the King of Canturbury series & getting 2nd overall in King of Ruapuna.....
Major goals are to actually win a race instead of being bridesmaid all the time!
To get quick enuff to step up into Formula 2 next year'd be nice as well..

And to grow a large set of nads & have a crack at the Greymouth & Nelson street races in 09
