Guys I was thinking of organising a KB track day on sunday 11th of july.
It will be a KB members only event or by invitation.

-Sorry guys its too close--only 2 weeks away
But hey I still think its a good concept.
guys how many of ya would be happy to front a non refundable rain or shine deposit to secure either pukie or maybee taupo
So for pukie itd be $40 ish if taupo $20 ish as a deposit

Bah its not fair. Im planning on being horribly hungover that day.
hrm. Maybe I might be able to make it just a light headache instead...

edit: yeah interested, but I hate the weather risk :( Being a n00b I wouldnt want to do anything unless it was dry.

Ill see if taupo is available
I cant get the numbers I need to make it work
To break even I would need 50 guys to pay $80 come rain or shine

Is this at pukekohe or taupo?

Uhhh happy to in principle, as long as we have cancellation cover if the weather isn't suitable. Would be much keener in fairer weather, although a couple of light showers through the day wouldn't be enough to put me off.

A months notice is ample for me.

Put me down for Taupo at any stage, Frosty.

Now theres exactly the problem
To hire Pukie costs for a private hire about 4000 including a medic and recovery truck
Someone has to front that 4k come rain or shine.
Taupo is a bit cheaper--read a lot--Im waiting for confirmation -BUT because pukie wont exist from oct 31st till possibly march next year Taupo is pretty heavily books
Now I could be talking out my ass here about Taupo because I havent heard back from track management but I think its $2000 including medic and crash truck
Im more than happy to organise a day -and front the money but I can't afford to be 4k out of pocket
if 50 guys front $40 deposit then thats $2000 deposit
if I get 50 turn up on the day then I get my money back
At the last big KB meeting on the 23rd of april they had
82 PAID entrys -but keep in mind a fair few of those were practicing for the racing the next day.I think we had 45 KB members on the track

Frosty, will be keen for anything after 16th july, but yeah, at least a month away would be easiest! Especially if its a week day!

Yeah I'm keen, Puke or Taupo rain or shine!! I understand the risks you need to take and I'm willing to put my money up front even though it could piss down. I think its great that you are doing this as lots of people have been talking about organising a track day but no one wants to take the risk so fronting up with my cash is the least I can do to help!

I'm pretty keen to try a track day,but the cashflow's a bit tight these days....if it was a month or two away I may be keen.....and it would depend on the cost too....Draco is keen to have a go too...

Thanx for the heads up by showing me your riding WT. I have some understanding of your skill level now. If you think that Jo is far superior to you then I can't even begin to imagine how good he must be. I wish I could ride with you guys often to pick up the pace but too bad you guys live down in Welly.

I'll see ya in Taupo ya fast c*nt :Pokey:

Um Bruce I would never admit I gobbled other men on a motorcycle forum. :blah:

Consider my money in XJ, as much notice as you can give is a good thing though, gotta get time off work, put my vote in for Taupo.
