Then take a look at this site (http://www.etracksonline.co.uk/default.htm)

Absolutely brilliant - it gives circuit maps, some history etc and it even has details of a number of tracks that are no longer used.

Fantastic resource.

The long cicuit's great.

The rest is stop/start/shit surface goat track. Three drag strips joined by rough as guts turns.

Everyone says Puke is a HP circuit but everyone in the know realises that Manfield rewards HP more than Pukekohe.

Shit Wt my memory must be failing me--Its old age ya see.
I remember manfeild as not having the big HP rewards that pukie does -In that a faster bike doesn't get the chance to wind up to full noise as often as Pukie.
Hey spankme --could we make this a sticky in the racing section--bloody good info that :love:

Lots of acceleration from low speeds at Manners where as Puke, you spend a lot of time at high speed, but mostly on the side of your tyres. You're only really accellerating hard out in two spots at Puke. And one of those you're doing 190-200 onto the front straight anyway.

Taupo looks cool. It looks like the whole time the bike is turning apart from the front straight.
