Thinking of it, does the Royal Enfield count as British or Indian?

I've just recovered from an arm fracture, so I'm not sure I'll be racing just yet :)

Same here mate but I wont be racing, MNZ still have my licecnse after my highside at TRRS. My son will be racing his FXR, will be his 5th race meeting and he only turned 13 last november. Was hoping to have his KR150 ready, it wont be but will be for the Winter Series

What did fracture Johan? Mine was my Shoulder blade

I think a Royal Enfeild is the original English Bike and a Enfeild is the Indian version, they even do a diesel model...........

You could race a "Indian" but the BSA Bantam would probably be faster on Taupo anyway

I wish you and your son luck, must be great to see him ride!

I fractured upper humerus, from downhilling at Long Gully.

The entries closes tonight, I still have time to change my mind a few times. I'm really keen!

It better be dry - I sold my wets + wheels to buy a new bike! Going to be a long drive just to sit on the sidelines if it rains....!

[Duke girl]

well you all know what you have to do to make sure its Sunny.......... Dance.........Well on your feet then!!!!!!!!!!!1

[froggyfrenchman]

Right - its settled. If its raining, we need to have a Triumph owners drinking session in a pit shed. At least you had wets... Try pricing up a spare set of rims for a speed triple. I could buy a 675 for that kind of coin!

[Shorty_925]

Oh I'm there!!

ebay is your friend for Triumph rims. I can pick up a set for my bike for less than $900 shipped. Triumphs are way easier to get rims for cos their are so few being raced (exception being the 675 of course). Trying to get rims for an SV650 etc, now that gets expense fast.

Well as usual it was another fantastic round of racing with the PMCC who as always put on a very well run event yesterday as well as the track day on Saturday. The commitement and ethusiasm that Nigel gets from his marshalls and volunteers is truely outstanding.
The weather was more than perfect and the racing most enjoyable by those who were out there.
Congratulations to all of those riders who finished 1st, 2nd & 3rd in their class for the series and l must say you dont have to win a race to proudly come home with a trophy which is what l did ( my 1st ever trophy) :woohoo:....... 2nd place in the mini lites and my partner Russell came home with 3rd :yes: in the Pro lites so a good weekend had by us both.
l look forward to racing with the PMCC again and keep up the great work you guys do in running a race meet.

[lukemillar]

Yep, big thanks to Nigel and all of the Pacific Club for another great round. Even got a certificate for Bears which I wasn't expecting! Perfect end to a great series.

Thank you
Luke

What Skippy said!

I'm pretty stoked to have taken out F3/Superlites title this year! :shit:

[Shaun]

Congradulations to Travis Merkel for winning the 600 class series, fastest lap he has ever done around Taupo Track 1 by 1.6 seconds WOW

A combination of him growing more and of course a SUZUKI GSXR 600 helped haha

Thanks to Dukic Performance for the std modified front end he raced on, it is all that any club racer/road rider needs to go fast safely:yes:

PS, bloody good work Nigel and team for running the events
