Yeah I thought that looked like Steve but I think I was in front of him by that point so I don't know?

Certainly gets the adrenalin flowing. Bring on next year. Question, would an electric start have been an advantage on the start or would foot already on the kick start won out.

Also on You tube is great footage of Tarawera 100.

Well first out of the blocks was a 2 stroke:banana:, i say as long as it fires first pop, one massive leg would do the trick.

Yeah got to get a good first swing. A good start is a big advantage. My 200 would have started easier, but the gearbox spat out a tooth before Trail Blazer and I have not had the time to pull it down yet.

Steve just called me, and he says that that is not him on the vid.
