My return to racing

[White trash]

As most of you are well aware, I gave up my favourite passtime of motorcycle racing in the last half of 08, much to the dissapointment of my two fans.

However, seeing the sport in such a dire state of affairs, I've decided that it needs my return more than I need the time off. That being said, I still can not safely race a bike so I'll try my hand at team management.

Just this morning I'm pleased to announce we have signed the services of an up and coming racer to ride the bike. He's fairly new to the sport however he is already really well known at all the high profile meetings and has a devoted following of supporters.

With the backing of a well known Auckland Dealership and hopefully more corporate sponsors on the way, we're planning a full on assualt on the Actrix Winter Series and hope to run at the front of the Superbike field within the first couple of meetings.

Please see attached the first image of our rider trying his new Superbike on for size.

Thanks for your time and please do come and say "Hi" in the pits.

Thats a good looking machine your team has there, What sort of gear is it running? a works engine or is she just a stocker for now?

[White trash]

We've left it pretty much stock to begin with due to not knowing what the rules are going to do for NZSBK in 2010.

Testing's going well though, he's already quicker than me. Especially if there's food involved.

To save costs you could probably just use the same spring from the suspension of your old bike as the weight of the new rider is about the same as your weight I would imagine. Will talk with R. Taylor about it, although Shaun may have his opinion on this as well.

Actually mate, we had considered that, but due to the fast tracked nature of getting the thing set up, we're just going to leave the rear end stock for the winter. Saves heaps of worrying about correct suspension set up when it's got none. We'll just adjsut the tyre pressures to suit.

And I can't imagine Shaun having an opinion :D Doesn't strike me as the type....

[Tony.OK]

Hahaa now Ed's got even more competition.....................I see why he'll need a newer bike now:2thumbsup

Hey man thanks for the tips at Pie Rowa too..................if I wasn't havin such a blast Id've remembered to actually try them:crazy:

[007XX]

Well done!

[GIXser]

Im in the mood for a fight here James.
Do you really think those sharp edges on the foot boards are safe for the rider ? or for that matter any rider that gets a bit close during an inside move through the essess . ?
They will slash legs and arms and other precious bits badly and then you know they will have to find a new colour scheme
for a "Blood on the track flag ". We dont need that now do we ?.

Im scared the family trait :shutup: of only getting to turn one will mean all the other riders on the grid will have a "sharp edge fear " instilled in them before the green flag is waved .
Please reconsider the structure of that blatently dangerous machine and then i will reconsider my protest alternatives.
I await your response :blink: on this matter.

defect to our team baby Mair and then you will have a proper manager, PM me .I got it , You want it , Lets Race.

That's good, I've been drinking and like a good fight.

Firstly, a Dalton (no matter what age) has no fear of sharp edges. Heck, we've even been seen running with scissors. AROUND A POOL!!! Other riders? What were they thinking try to pass a Dalton through the esses? Are they mental??!! Have you not seen Drews performances?

"Blood on the track flag ". We dont need that now do we ?.
Might see some spectators???

It aint a family trait. The rest of the family quite safely get through turn one, it's turn three we're mostly concerned with thanks to Drews efforts.

You stop managing Hondas old man, I'll consider it. Now Dad sez I have to go to bed.

Almost as tall as you my luv.

He gets a bit spooked by the "Flaming Lawn Mower Of Death" chasing him up the road, but he's learning. Especially not to hold the FLMOD together with fucking duct tape.

I look VERY forward to seeing you guys again soon.

Jeesh... you still under the influence of all that bourbon I fed you a few years ago...??

[FROSTY]

Im thinking you may need to talk with your tyre supplier. Have you got tyre warmers sussed yet??

Warmers are for chicks. From what I am told the new rider prefers it when the bike is sliding around on cold tyres, who do you think taught Jay Lawrence to back it in to the turns like he does.

Its not up to the rider though. Given the calibre of the team management I suspect that sliding wont be encouraged.
I'm thinking that the new generation roller sliders and remote fuelling tecnology might be interesting for this team.
