Yeah, same bike as last year, but it's set up now, and there's more motivation to go fast this year with Jay coming back. I imagine Paul will do well on the KTL 999, having done the Isle of man he should come to terms with the road where others are a bit put off.
I still intend to leave with the big cheque though.

I have no doubt he probably will with my lack of riding for 18 months. However, if he does, it certainly wont because I'm blind. Only entering if the optometrist gives me the all clear. It's going to be a nice change riding and seeing at the same time.

However since this is the 10th anniversary of the "Cliffhanger" I predict I will again be in the top ten and maintain my record of the "Cliffhanger" being the only "track" (it's not a circuit) I have never crashed at :) (I hope to add Paeroa to the list of tracks I haven't crashed at latter this month )

9th February 2010, 11:51
Well. If Jay brings his F3 and Supersport bikes, I have to say that he will have his work cut out for him in either one of those classes.
You only get so many runs up the hill - simple maths tells me that two classes means half the number of runs per class........
I have done it in F1 and F3 the last two years and was lucky enough to have little competition in F1, so I could focus my energy on F3, where I had to work for the win.
Jay will have to decide which class to focus his energy on - but I am not letting my F3 title go without a fight. (I'm picking Jay will focus on the big prize myself.)
Similarly, I might have the same dilemma this year, if someone gives me the hurry along in F1.....anyone ?
Though being my 'race' bike - F3 is my priority.
So there. Not much of a smack talk but hey.....the thread needed another bump !!

No problem at all mate, I'll sweep/shovel what's left of it onto the trailer for ya. Might pay to bring a decent hanky though, the cracked subframe and seat pinches some sensitive parts of the anatomy which brings a tear to the eye when you least expect it.
I'm sure Drew will help me duct tape up a solution...or actually, maybe not. That bad dude? Ouchie. Know of any more functional SBK's that are floating around? :D

My K2 did alright without tread, and the 999 with tread was shithouse.

So are any KB braggers going to come and show you guys how super fast they are on a road???
et al
24th February 2010, 21:11
Well I sent my entry off last week, effectively lowering the bar for everyone else. So come on anyone who wants a go - do not hesitate to get your entry in, it is a lot of fun and you don't have to take it too seriously if you don't want to. Just enjoy being able to ride that road and exploring your bike's limits without worrying about anything coming the other way.

Best take a can, depending on what fuel your using bp has the only 98 in Masterton.

Top up the bike and bring a jerry can as well mate. Full tank would probably suffice but best to be safe than sorry.
If possible can you fill up at Cutfield Motors - Gasoline Alley on main street of Carterton as they are a sponsor of the event.
That goes for everyone else too please. I don't know if they have 98 though.
