Graeme. I hate you.
Do not rub salt in the wounds about us having shitty "goat tracks" while you hoon around the best circuit in the world on the second best bike in the world (only to the K5)
You will not be welcome back and you're spoiling it for all other Ausies wishing to join our wonderfull site.
Now go and have yourself a VB or XXXX or whatever Koiala(sp) piss you guys drink and think about what you've done.
Edit: And for fucks sake don't you DARE mention the cricket.
2nd edit: I've just noticed you're a Kiwi. Now who can pick the stupid fucken Ausie? :confused:

How much was the fee when you did it man? Do you have to be an aussie or it doesn't matter? I tried finding out the info on the net but I didn't anything.

Ha ha, that was a stupid question. What I was thinking when I typed that gibberish was, if it was cheaper for aussie nationals compaired to foreigners. Anywho, cheers for the site GSXR1k! I'll look for the info in there.

fly over on one of the cheap deals, get a bus down to the Island and when.....
Bikes & Riding gear now available for hire!
We’re pleased to confirm that right now you can literally walk into any of our dates with a credit card and toiletries bag and still be able to participate.
A fleet of Triumph Daytona 600cc motorcycles have arrived and been 'racetrack prepped' ready for you to ride. Each bike has been outfitted with Raceglass fairings & Dunlop D208RR tyres, as well as having the suspension 'dialled in' so they handle every bit as good as a current model 600cc sport bike should.
The bike only cost for the day is $275 all inclusive* (plus the cost of participating in the event of course).
Our new Leather sponsor RST have provided us with a range of leather suits for hire (along with gloves), as have AGV helmets & Alpinestar boots. This service is now available at very reasonable prices with leathers costing only $35 per day and the full equipment price being $55 for the day.
Package cost for bike & riding gear $299
Bike only $275
Full riding gear $55
Leathers only $35
Helmet / Boots / Gloves (1 or more item) $25

How does the heat affect performance? I'm thinking of riding in 55 degree heat, with 100% humidity, & wondering how that will affect the bike's performance.
