I reckon the sbk class racing was the best I have ever seen, I was on pit lane needing toilet paper.
It was ironic how in race 2 Stroudy got passed on the last corner of the last lap by a Stroud manourvre, Gareth said as he was passing Stroudy he was thinking no-no-no as the bars were turning closer to the tank tucking the front. Gareths bike looked to have handle bar scrapes on the left side of the fairing - dont know where that came from................
Both races could have been won by any of the four - four as in Craig would be there if he had some more horsies - Pukekohe + Honda = mmmmm.
Kudos to Craig, he was riding the wheels and other parts off to try and keep up but it didnt happen, I havent seen him ride that aggresive for a long time.
Its good to see hard racing again, the mutual respect between riders is shown by the fact that there was no "offs".
Ps. just like the old 250 proddy days!

Yeah man - I've seen a lot of racing over the years but that was as good as any - right here in NZ too.
Everyone should get there arses to Puke for some more great action.

It sure was outstanding when I got to see it. I was also really impressed with the club racers in all classes out there. All of the ones I spoke to improved their PB lap-times. I suspect I will have to give it a lunge myself next year.
