Paeroa on TV!!

[Sparky Bills]

So who watched it??
I saw the last few races.
Good to see the Motards being showen. Does anyone know if they showed the BEARS race???

Gotta love those onboard shots!

[Joni]

Damn, I only caught the last 3 minutes....
:blank: if I was not reminded I would have missed it totally...

[Sparky Bills]

Yeah, I just got back from Manfeild, Turned on the TV, then remembered!
Saw a couple races. What i saw was good!

[StoneChucker]

I must say I'm pretty pissed off. I really wanted to watch this, and as usual completely forgot.

[MikeL]

Saw most of it. Good coverage, much better than when I helped film it back in 1992.
Ah, progress...

[GSVR]

It was good coverage almost as good as being there. Especailly like seeing the interviews with Jarrod Love, Andrew Stroud, Craig Sheriffs and Tony Rees. Great!

[Darryboy]

I got a copy on tape if anyone wants to borrow it.

[Riff Raff]

I got a copy on tape if anyone wants to borrow it.

[Sparky Bills]

It will give me an excuse to come up that way!
Decent excuse for a ride isnt it?? :banana: :wari:

[GSVR]

I think there will be alot of bikes heading north next weekend

[Riff Raff]

I thought this would happen so I taped it too.
PM if you wanna come up an watch/borrow it.. goes for an hour.
So while your watchin it yer bike might go missing for a bit... heh e
Cool that would be good! And my bike go missing????? I don't think so!!! I know you're desperate for a ride on him tho - it's understandable!!!

[gav]

Did I miss something but looked like there was no F3 coverage? Hadnt realised how fast they were, 260km/h on the main street, awesome coverage esp the on bike stuff!!

[Kwaka-Kid]

Wicked Coverage! Just awesome... Detailed interviews with riders etc...
One gripe.

WHERE WAS Formula 3 AT?!

I mean, yeah we are not as fast and not as professional as F1/2 but still we made up a large part of Paeroa and i gave up a $600 carbon fibre exhaust + $300 rear tyre just to get a little attention and it doesnt work.

Ahh well, all that money and all i wanted was my own little claim to fame so i could raise a little self esteem by watching myself go around, and around, and around, and around 3 more times paeroas street circuit on my own TV with my own tape free of charge over, and over, and over again at least 3x a day...

yeah nah. :)

It was great coverage. We saw it on Saturday night at the pub in Feilding - they announced over the PA Sat avo at Manfeild that there'd be a preview screening of it after the racing.

It was amazing to sit there watching it and have all the top racers in the room ribbing each other.

I hadn't realised that Tony Rees and Lance Lowe had had a coming-together/off, I'd wondered why Tony disappeared for a while then came back.

Many thanks to Yamaha for making this possible.

Was gutted i only got to see the end of it :( Was there good coverage of Nicko leading in the F2 race???

Lance's crash looked MEAN... good to see him get back into the last race though...

[White trash]

Nice of race control to tell him to knock off the shenanigans. That's half the entertainment is Lances antics on parade and warm up laps fuclers!

FARK YEAH!!! and to tell Briggs to knock it off when he was backing it out from so far back hehehe... I thought that was wicked stuff in the motard race.. But if he did that in a F3 race :angry2:

I got it all on tape man, you can come for a watch or borrow it sometime. I didn't belive it but, guess what. I WAS ON TV!! WOOHOOO!! For a full 1.5 secs, starting and going into the kink. LOL

[ZorsT]

i watched it :spudwave:

i even got dad to watch it to, he pretends that he hates motorsport, but i think he secretly loves it.

:banana:

[Waylander]

Missed it in person and now missed it on TV..... Ohwell maybe I could borrow someones copy? Would be willing to come get it in person:2thumbsup



Tired as anything and already itchin for another ride, heh...

[erik]

I haven't watched it yet myself, but I did capture it to the 'puter. I'm still working on editing the adds out and joining the separate capture files together and getting the audio in sync. I should have it finished tomorrow evening at the latest, so if anyone wants a copy of it on cd (XviD encoded .avi) I can post some out or you can pick them up or whatever.
It's much better quality than the wanganui race, but not as good as hdtv or a dvd rip.

LEGEND MAN!!! Bring it to my house when you pick it up my race bike... Im so screwed for Pukekohe.... its been so long since i have ridden that track AND ridden my ZXR :wacko:

[QUOTE=Sparky Bills]So who watched it??

Missed it - was out riding. Anyone in Wgtn area tape it????

[nicko]

Was good coverage for the most part and thanks to the sponsors for getting it on TV but I got shafted as they only showed the 2nd F2 race where I got a crap start - doh. What's worse is they actually spliced the footage from race 1 with race 2 and all the on-board footage from Derek McAdam is looking at my bike and the commentators were calling me Andrew Stroud. Gutted!

Never mind, Nicko.
Even though I don't know you, when I saw you on the box, I said to my wife - "Hey - there's another KiwiBiker! That's Nicko!"

I knew it!!! I was wondering WTF??, when they were calling you Stroud since it was clearly your silver spool leathers. Tho I guess with fancy riding like yours, it was understandable for them mistaking you for Stroud. Nice one Nick! :niceone:

[Posh Tourer :P]

Well, milky didn't bring it to carting, but SM's copy is here for anyone who wants it.

PM milky

[saiko]

I can't believe TVNZ gave a whole hour to motorbikes. A real shame that they didn't interview Brian Bernard.
