Will there be an F5 class? just asking as my F4 looks unlikely to be finished.

Unlikely I would think. You could enter it in B grade but there have only been two F5 bikes show up in the three years the series has run to now. Hardly enough to warrant a separate class.

Shame, there are quite a few bikes out there, the series is fantastic, all you lads and lasses should dust off your 100's and 50's and ride some new tracks.

I will enter B grade on my 50 if I can get 10rwhp by the start of the series.

Hmm, if you and B-grade Tim are riding, maybe I should turn up, too.
finally starting to get a little bit of an itch to ride again, which has been about a year in the making. See how it goes at the 2 hour weekend, if that doesn't put me off.

Here's hoping for a 'C' grade at Toke cause I don't want to push it too early, plate's only coming out on 18th Nov. Will all be sweet for Taumarunui, am strangely looking forward to that! I have done a few laps at Kaitoke over a couple of weekends and have enjoyed it so should be fun!

Um I reckon you should stay away from the 2 hours madness and think road trip ( take your 100 )

Nothing said about riding in the 2 hour madness, there is the b grade endurance race, possibly partner's race, and just some time on the bike. that's just the next meet. Umm, what other bike would I take lol?

Cheers Henk
That sounds good to me. Just wondering what the entry fee might be for one day at Tokoroa and the two days at Taumarunui.
I have the xmas parade on the 7th Dec, (that I'm entered in) so cant come over until the afternoon.
Need to work out the budget too.

Henk

13th November 2013, 20:12

Pretty sure entries for all rounds will be $40. 5% chance it's 45 cos I old and dopey.
Price will cover both days but transponder hire will be $20 on top of that. Plus day licences if you need one.
Max as far as I can work out is $75 for the weekend.

Well, I never said it was any good (purdy is the southern term for lets get it on cousin.).

If you ignore the runs\drips\overspray\general non adherence, and the fact that I am blind in one eye and can't see out of the other, then I must say that I am generally happy with the outcome.

That and the fact that team GPR has all of my tools, and I can only undo things by hitting it with bananas and the odd coconut. Now I have the team colours I should be half as good as the rest of them...:rolleyes:
