Hay scott,sign in at mt wellington sun is 8.00-8.30 riders briefing 9.30 Cost $30 but to be honest
i don't think there will be motards racing on sun if at least 5 bikes don't turn up sat because of interest and weather.I only no of 3x people that are keen and me and you poss but one of them my friend can't race race this time on sunday,i'll have to see how many turn up sat and see who can make it sun,ill be there an have a practice saturday, i'll be there from one, because of short notice and other events on sunday there's other guys that are keen but can't make it.Hopefully next time we'll be able to have a race and i'll let every one no of the next date in plenty of time.If we do have enough riders there sat and it's confirmed there will be a race start sun i'll post ya on here sat evening see how it go's and catch up soon. I'll confirm saturday night.
