I am not sure who is coming down just yet, but there are some very fast guys in Auckland. I've never won a race at Puke, and some of the pre'82s have also kicked my butt.
Last years '89 senior champ (Nick) is putting away his RC30 and trying the juniors this year. Tony and Frank are both taking time off their GSXR1100s due to crashes.
There are some new guys racing this year, A young fellow on an RZ500, Kevin Grey on a Gixer 7/11, Patrick on a GSXR1100, Ben Keller from Tauranga a Fizzer1000 and that is just a few in the '89 seniors.

I am sure that I will be the least of your problems at Rd5.
Be worried, be very very worried.:sweatdrop :crazy:

Dont laugh too hard , there was a sick assed bastard that rode a GL1200 Aspencade in an F1 race during the early 90s lol , it was evil in the tight stuff but got along ok in a straight line , and he still hade the stereo fitted (and going) .
He was man enough to ride with standard fairings , you could too with the proper dedication , just do it !:2thumbsup

Rest assured pre 89 juniors will include 250s. Fire your entry in, there will alwayds be a place to race. TZ250's and TZR250's have been running for years, plus a couple of RG250's. What Pete didn;t cover was that the rules are written to allow an up to 250 liightweight class. But if not enough entrants they just slide into Jnrs.

Lightweight LOL that'll be a first being a light weight. I'm sure I weight more than the bike. But in all seriousness if there were enough "lightweights" would there be a class and what else qualifies for the said class???

The lightweight class is for 125-250cc bikes. To date there have only been a few of these bikes turn up so they run with the juniors. You will still have heaps of fun so come along and race.
