Looks like I might get to Wanganui on Boxing Day if all goes according to plan. Thinking I might head down on Xmas day (Xmas day's a bit *complicated* in my family....so off to the cemetery I go..).
It's a while away yet and plans might yet be changed but are there any others from Dorkland and environs heading down that way on the afternoon of Xmas day? If there are I wouldn't mind hooking up for the ride down.
Probably riding myThunderarse if it's ready by then but not breaking any speed records (a brisk, rather than fast, pace, except thru the Paraparas where my pace will be nanna-ish)

Cool. what class?
I've got my entry in for F3 (SV650 #33 - no sponsors :) )
I know what you mean about nerves though. The lack of run-off on the street circuits is a bit of a concern.

Do you know how many races you need under your belt, prior to entering this event?

I think its 3 stamps in your licence.
I'll be there and I know of a few others heading up from the SI. Will have my t-shirt on. Think we should arrange a KBer meeting point.

Entries have to be in by 3rd Dec!
Make sure the KBer meeting point is in the open and making the most noise!! :Punk:
Im changing my comment from nerves to Absolutly Shitting my pants!
But in an exciting way.(if there is such a thing)
Should be a great day! :ride:

well Ill be there -with sparkly new sliders on. :gob:
uys um where is there no runoff??-Railway lines and ya run up the pit exit.
Rose gardens and ya just go straight ahead -the turn after and shit its a mile wide.--Over the bridge is scarey -kinda like the hill at pukie--no runoff there--Turn one and ya just run straight ahead--hmm --or maybee my memory is buggered.

Hey guys --those actually entering-dont forget the supplimentry rules for ROAD circuits---tether type kill switch and heat proof breather tubing.
Dont forget your civic (road) licence just in cace warren gets bloody minded.

The Man will hopefully be racing his first time at Wanganui, so we'll be going down in the van (white, with red Ducati tankpad stuck to the rear window) on Christmas Day afternoon. I have yet to decide if I'm going down on my bike or riding shotgun in the van. See what happens (read: how much food I eat Xmas Day & if my leathers can still be got into! :gob: )
We are booked into the Avro Motel in Alma Road.

last year was cool. except for no damn rubbish bins(i found 1 around the whole track) shaun harris and craig shirrifs didnt have a problem with the bridge they were running over all the chippie containers in the gutter. down the main straight benchmark turned a small truck into there own private small grandstand with BBQ and scorecards(they even got a flash at one stage).and of course watchin johann bruns ride his bike like he stole it in the rain was wicked as.

where'd you get this from? I got the kill switch, but can find anything about breather hoses in the book.

Will look you up Sparky as we need somewhere to drop our gear off, hope you have a cold beer for me unlike at New Plymouth.
When are you going up to Wanganui? as we might be calling in to your place on Xmas day.
Thanks for the bags!
