[Kendog]

A summer bucket racing series in Wellington, dare I say we will get some fine race days.

Nice work again fishy, bring it on.

[Trudes]

Wow!:wings:
And I will be FREE, Free as a bird by then too, yahhh! Looking forward to racing without thinking about assignments!:woohoo:

Nice work Fish!! :niceone:

[richban]

Woop woop on the poster twice. Love your work Fishie. If you need a hand on anything let me know.

[F5 Dave]

Awesome. Love that track! & yeah nice choice of pics:innocent:

[Henk]

Unfortunately the closest we're likely to get this time round is the poster, love the track and as jealous as hell.

[all4A50s]

Now this just plain depresses me. Will have to content myself watching Amy.

[all4A50s]

Emilio has borrowed Ikasu from me to have a turn can people please help him with starting, mixing fuel with oil, etc. Given I most likely won't be at the next couple of meets.

He's very keen and is a quick study but very green to all things small and 2-smokey.

Thanks in advance

Good on ya man, that's very generous of you.

I remember the first time I got my MVX going earlier in the year. Taking it for a rap up the motorway to meet TRTNR crew. Cam across young Emilio on his new GT250R at the lights and proceeded to give him a little lesson in 1983 2 stroke superiority over 2011 4 stroke boringness. Next set of reds he pulls up next to me and says "Mate, there's something wrong with your bike, it's pissing smoke!" Lol.

[Dutchee]

Umm, has Emilio ever ridden a two stroke then?

I guess it wouldn't be quite as hard work as at Mt Welly, but I love two strokes just am too lazy to ride one at buckets (plus my mechanic has a bit of input in this).

[hillbillie]

:shake:

And a good mornin to ya'al. Can, I say can someone piont me in the direction as to where might the buckets bee?

Much abliged :scooter:

You'd be happy to know young Emilio worked his way into the racing very well and maturely. He improved every session and took advice on board very well for a young fella.

I reckon he's hooked.

[Emilio]

Quite surprised to see my name pop up in a thread :o thanx for the kind words jim! It was weird riding a 2 stroke but got used to it towards the end :) i am DEFINATLY hooked, il be attending any meet i can, rain or shine. Does anyone know the gent that was kind enough to let me use his thumpstar pit bike? Wana ask him a few things. Thanx again george, once again you have hooked a newbie to buckets!!

[hmurphy]

You took to it bloody well too, when is your bucket gonna be at the track? We need more A graders

[Emilio]

gonna get a bike when i get the money otherwise il have to watch until then, that pit bike made me think of turning my 110cc super pocketbike into a bucket, would that be legal? I wana put a bigger engine in it, providing it fits in the frame, the one it has is WAY too slow at the moment. Anyone hapen to have a small engine they dnt want? (he said hopefully)

Mine? My current collection of bucket bits consists of a seemingly endless supply of used 120 section race tyres.

Dunno how long it'll take to amass the rest of required parts but I've got a bit of a plan coming together. Doubt I'll be at Round I of KOK but maaaaayyyyybeeeee R II.

Also seriously doubt I'll be A grade material after watching you, Fish and Dave going at it.

[Henk]

That's Alien grade, normal A grade starts at about 4th or 5th place from what I've seen.

[hmurphy]

Good stuff Emilio, you might get a really fast bucket out of a decent pit bike (like the one you rode) but definitely lacks on handling.

You'd be sweet in A grade Jimmy. I have a mates bucket that needs a ton of love but is together for the most part. It's a TS125 motor with a CR85 chamber (it's still slow but I imagine could be pretty damn fast if you could be bothered tuning the motor and putting a proper chamber on) in an RGV150 frame (crap) with slicks (plenty of meat but probably a tad stale) and rims that are ok. If you or anyone else is interested, even if you buy it just for the working motor then let me know. It's a good start anyway! The motor is in great condition I think.

Well Jimbo, you might be A grade before you know it Bro......
Just do what you love doing most......... ride the thing till it dies...... and then some more...... hahahahaha!!!

Couldn't agree more mate. All I know is that Rogan is doing 46s at Kaitoke and I can't keep up with him. Sub 45s required for A grade? Be a while before I'm hassling you in A grade bro.

[gatch]

I managed a 47 on the cb125..

Weathers looking GREAT for tomorrow..

W00t, can't wait.

[Clivoris]

Oooh. Reverse circuit is scary.

[hillbillie]

Oooh. Reverse circuit is scary.

No, not scary....... Just soiled me pats……. Bahahahahaha the “S” comes up to fast!!!
