Thank you - at least I get to be at Manfeild for Round 2 - thought I may be in hospital - This bike stuff saves my sanity lol - got lots more entries to process yet - it's gonna be a big meeting.

I reckon if anyone sends me a late entry I should charge them a coffee for me - on second thoughts na - I'd be drowning in it lol. I'm a cheap bribe really.

[Clivoris]

I'm a cheap bribe really.

For a moment I thought you wrote "cheap bride". I'd already dialed half my Dad's number before I clicked. Lucky escape mate. I hear 7 is an unlucky number.:shifty:

[Tony.OK]

You've probably answered your own question there mate. If there's huge numbers, there's still only a limited amount of time in the day.
Bear in mind that the laps are about 25 seconds shorter than Taupo so races tend to contain more laps.

If I can get a race licence out of MNZ within the week as I've just noticed that a day licence only lets you race in clubmans! :O

[Petrolic]

Will be my first race so I will see how clubmans go with a day license ....can't wait... where can I put collection fluid bottle r1 is tight may have to be external, but would rather hide it...

[sinfull]

Will be sticking my nose in at the track for this one to have a look see and talk to a few (who might wanna speak to me that is lol) with regard to setting my bike up etc ! VMCC membership form should be on its way back to Sue this week Shirley

I've got space in a pit lane garage if anyones keen.

[Petrolic]

Test day friday, suppose there will be heaps there, I have set of race tyres on that I did one day at taupo on . After practise on friday am I safe for sat as well as for wear or am I pushing it.???????

what was the day at taupo, track day means new ones required, race day means you "should" get away with it.
Also depends on compound, was your suspension set right etc.

ie only you can tell and it may pay to have a spare set in the pits

[ArcherWC]

wow, just checked out the confirmed entry lists, gonna be a few people having a very short day by the looks of F1/2

[Tony.OK]

40 bikes in F1:( And Manfeild is lisensed for 35 right?
115% rule would make about a 1:19 cutoff

[Clivoris]

I think you might manage to go under 1:19 Tony:msn-wink:. I'm not sure how many bikes Manfield is "licensed" for, but the Vic club decided to restrict the race grids to 35 in an effort to improve safety. The 115% cut-off has not been formally adopted, we just wanted to see what it would look like at Taupo. I feel a new thread coming on.

Lol,wasn't referring to me,I plan on doing sub 60's:crazy::whistle:

Gonna be an interesting meeting for you guys tonite me thinks:wacko:

[Nicksta]

115% is a bit tough on certain fields... should it not be just the top 35 no matter what? I understand not having slower bikes for safety reasons... but if you have room, you may as well accommodate people... there will be a lot of dissappoitned people a lot out of pocket if the fields arent full due to the cut off rule....

any word on race format for the day?

[ArcherWC]

bugger, ive never gone faster than 1:20 round there

[Clivoris]

I have been informed tonite that you are correct. Manfield is only licenced for 35 grid positions.

[White trash]

bugger, ive never gone faster than 1:20 round there
I know a guy (persistant shit stirrer on this very site) that gets around Manfeild in 1.19 on an 883 Harley Skirtster. Those rules were tight too, pretty much stock bikes.

If you can't get around there in under 1.19 on a modern thou', sorry, you should be in Clubamans.

For the record, the same guy's gone 1.16 on a 250 PRODDY bike. Bet that makes ya pecker shrink Brian :D

[ArcherWC]

so clubmans for me then :-(

[boomer]

[ArcherWC]

[Tony.OK]

Nah you'll be right,you dropped your times at Taup's gettin comfortable with ya Kwaka...................now its been rebuilt(?) you'll be sweet;)

Either that or we organise a "rolling road block" on those fast fookers:woohoo:

[johan]

I've got a garage sorted, thanks all for the offers!

I understand there's a practise session on Friday. Is it bikes only or cars as well? What time do I need to be there, is it drop in or register before 9am? Do I need to bring race license etc?

Cheers
