Um... Not if it sticks a hole in a piston 'cos it's running lean on one side it ain't. A carb rebuild I can afford. An engine rebuilds another matter...

Maybe.
Ask one of the organisers when your there.
You may need a fluro vest (which is a good idea) to go out there, but other than that, so long as you dont get too close to the track you should be sweet.
(i want knee/elbow/toe/peg scrapage pics if you do :devil2: )

sat day. no cunt scares me. im peter pan.
Quasievil you lazy bugger go read the earlier thread (Meetings) Kiwirider Mag trackday. Ok, its this Saturday at Manfield and again in September sometime.
Going to be a big turn out from the sounds of it.
Doubt my front tyre will last more than 2 sessions though but can't bring myself to fork out on a replacement when there's still a bit of useful wear to be wringed out. Maybe there will be folks selling/fitting tyres there or a quick trip to Anza or somewhere close?

You selling alarm clocks Jimbo?
Looks like an early start needed then. I'll probably aim for leaving the Shell Mana by 7.00am. Got a reasonable group gathering now with a guest Racer tagging along maybe.
Gazza- you reading this? No slacking, turn up man.

Sign on from about 8.30 through to 9.15. There will be a briefing at 9.15 for ALL riders. First session will be for those who have not been on a track before. Experts session will kick off at 10.00 followed by intermediates and the novices. 15 mins per session. Lunch 1.00pm until 1.30. A wheelie session will take place between 1.30 and 2.00 after which sessions will continue until the close at 4.30.
Guest experts on the day will be, Ray Clee, Andrew Stroud, Tony Rees and possibly Jared Love or Dean Fulton depending on Honda. Robert Taylor of Ohlins fame will also be there.
What other track days provide that sort of talent and knowledge for the punters benefit??
P.S. One other thing, it is unlikely that we will be taking entries on the day as we have just about hit our limit.

Ummm, might not need that alarm clock now. Optimistic bunch aren't we. Anyone else noticed it's not exactly drought conditions outside? Bloody hell why does this happen every trackday.
Tough on the organisers. So a big thanks to Chris and all at KiwiRider no matter what you're not responsible for the weather. But that's not stopping me from suing you if its wet. Of course its your fault (my lawyer told me to say that). See ya at the track or in court.

I suspect my g/f might possibly be taking the car up tomorrow... which means I can ride up at a much more suitable pace :devil2: So if LTNZ would like to get their revenue collectors ready, I am intending to kill people in the morning.
Planning to leave about 7ish from the Hutt so might see some of you's fullas on da way. Of course, it won't happen cos I never run to time.

Just finished oil and filter change in preparation for tomorrow.
Looks like its going to be cold but all forcasts predict no rain until Sunday.
Amazed at all the top riders that are turning up as well as the Kiwibikers coming from considerable distance.
Really looking forward to this :ride:
Thanks for promoting this on here Chris.
