Still need help with this as I'm away I have Phil Page doing bike checks Thanks Phil but still need someone to come forward and look after the rest of the day. Whose keen???????

Also we will have a minutes silence for Kerry Bates that lost his battle last month, so please make and wear a black arm band as a show of respect.

[F5 Dave]

Make sure we have bikes properly nyloned guys.

So who's showing up from A grade? Rich & Hamish I hope? Might we even have Andrew along?

Looks like I will be there. Bit crook but that will come out for a quite few laps. I think Regan and Scott are coming Andrew and son should be there. Plenty of 4 strokes for you to mash dave.

Yep I'm really hoping I can make it. I currently have my muffler on the bench at home. It's been chopped into a few pieces and is being made a lot fatter. I'm just waiting on a mate to come round with his welder to do the aluminium welding. I only have steel arc and mig at home. Hopefully finished tomorrow or I can't race on Sunday and will have to go dirt biking instead. My slicks are also very, very old and well used. So that should make for some mean slides and hairy moments :D

[F5 Dave]

Ahh c'mon bleedin factory rider. Rest of us race on 2nd hand slicks that are years old. Brooklyn is open every Saturday for dirty antics.


Oh yes, Caleb, forgot he is getting seriously fast these days. Also Rogan is bring'n it as well.

[hmurphy]

Haha my rear tyre is one of your old throw outs from ages ago!!

[F5 Dave]

SEE!? You get your tyres supplied to you. Sheesh, Primadonna. :innocent:

[richban]

Haha my rear tyre is one of your old throw outs from ages ago!!

Just chuck one of your old SV rings on it. Should be mint.

[hmurphy]

That might be a plan. Depends how many I should sell with my race bike when SOMEBODY DECIDES TO FRICKEN BUY IT

[TALLIS]

right everyone, dust those slick off and get to kaitoke! SUNSHINE..... hopefully

[hmurphy]

Can't make it. Bike wouldn't be finished til 11 tonight. I'm gonna get some sleep and go dirt biking tomorrow. Hopefully next month I'll make it.

Hey Biatches,

Stand-in-Fishie reporting.

For those who didn't turn up today, yep you missed out on a primo fun days racing, with a mild start to the day, followed by perfect conditions all day.

A minutes silence was held in respect for Kerry Bates prior to racing, with the sound of a bike arriving during the minutes silence - perfect timing on Hel's part.

About 34 punters turned out, with a pretty even split A=16 & B=18, including a couple stepping up to A Grade for the first time , well done Mike and Nick.

Some awesome racing right throughout the A Grade field, with Regan (92), Rich (45), Caleb (7) and Andrew (72) mixing it up all day long.
Special mention I think probably goes to Caleb who after a bit of a break away from the track was back in force and in one race in particular, stayed patient in the freight train, made the pass(es) and then gapped the chasing trio.

B Grade provided the regular mix of a few burglars :laugh:, regular hard chargers and great to see some newbies who rode well and surely will be looking to return next month.

Couple of offs as per the norm :clap: however, good to see everyone get up and walk away...eventually.

Good to not have to chase too much for flaggies...it makes the day go quicker and we don't hold up smooth running of the day - cheers.

Even though it was only a fun day and we mixed up the grids (all within reason), lap scoring was done and just for the competitive #*#*#*! :msn-wink:, here's the results for the day...
