Hey,

Can anyone tell me anything about these 'testdays open to competition cars and bikes' that they run at Manfeild? There's one on firday that i was thinking of going to but its followed by a day of car racing so im guessing the test day will be packed with serious racing cars and perhaps not a bike friendly day.

Is anyone else here going to the one on friday?

cheers all!

$100.00 for Test Day with what has already been said 20 minutes cars then 20 mins bike and so on from 9.00am-4.00pm with gates opened from 8.00am. U usually get about 3 sessions in the morning and 3 in the afternoon so plenty of track time to be enjoyed.

Ahhh, hey bro. Lolz I was trying to think who lives in Wanganui who knows me.

The day at Manfeild today was abit of a farce. The organisers turned all the bikers away because they needed the whole day to cater for the millionaires running about in their C6R Corvettes and Porsche GT3s....:bash:

As a sweetener the dude let me go out on track for ten minutes before the cars went out so atleast i got a wee ride on the bike to see what it handles like etc etc. Had the whole track to myself which was abit weird.

We all got a 'free trackday' to be taken in future as compensation too so its not a total loss. In fact the weather turned to absolute s**t and just kept getting worse so i guess things happened for the best afterall.

I went home, unpacked my stuff then went out to work for the rest of the day...

It was cool to meet and talk to the other riders - i hope to see you all on the another testday soon.

Next Friday 29th Jan there is another Manfeild trackday.
I got a call from Julie at Manfeild to check weather we wanted it as bikes only
I told her she can let the cars on as well on Friday because I am running a bikes only trackday on Saturday 30th and it will only cost you $50 to enter.

See me for details
or just turn up and enter on the day
