I find this hard to believe.
No8 Wire Extraordinaire
I considered the 50cc one some while back with some mods but dawned on me that the bucket rules allows for oversizes but the record won't and I wasn't going to do a new slightly smaller barrel (shaddup) just for the go.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Good point which teased my memory again...many years back now, I remember asking why we didn't have a set of records reflecting the then current classes in NZ roadracing - F1. F2 F3 etc. Obviously it would be framed differently now. I was told at the time "put in a remit and we'll look at it".
Still a valid point as records reflecting what is being raced could be (a) more attractive targets and (b) somewhat more relevant.

Phil Garrett's having another crack at the NZ record near Ashburton on the bike that he rode at Bonneville a few years ago.
It's easy for some to say that the record is 'only' 307 km/h, but none of those saying that have broken it. It might be money and mouth time, I reckon...

Do you know which club the permit's through ?
Is it going to be an open records attempt meeting or private for Phil ?

He should probably wait until the gentleman with the H2r has had a crack. It might save him a lot of wasted effort.
In the riders seat
There's an invite for a few bikes, contact Phil for details, I think it's a flying quarter
"If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."

nah i'd get in before, then at least he's had a shot. my old man set a world record in the sixties, it was certified here and sent off to england, by the time the letter got there the record was bettered so they didn't log it, he set it, it should've been logged.
only found that out at his funeral, but at least he knew it.
besides if gurret gets it he can stop calling himself south island sidecar champion and blurt something else.

There's the annual standing & flying quarters on in a couple of weeks.....combined event between Ashburton car club & Ashburton motorcycle club on the designated road.
He'll be working in conjunction with them, least he'll get the proper road this time not the corrugated POS he ran on the last time....still remember talking to him on the phone over that....
BP @ Honda Country is the 1st point of contact for info on the upcoming sprints and will most likely know whats the state of play for March.
BTW: Rodger Freeth's MacIntosh is on show at Honda Country at present too
Forum whore
MacIntosh is a brand of gumboot, what's so good about Freeths footwear?

There's a few descriptive words that start with the letter A that could be put to use
