2009 Ruapuna Endurance race

Was a great day out and I got heaps of track time which was good, had a few problems with my bike but still had plenty of fun!

Did anyone get any good photos, possibly some of F3 (bike no.44 - RVF400 to be precise)

And does anyone know if that is the last race meeting down that way until july? I herd roomers it was.

Yea was a good day eh - Mint weather. I am still sporting a few burns on the back of the neck.

Has anyone seen any of the F3 results/Times. There was nothing available before I hit the road.

Hmmmm, Do you think they would believe that the RVF is a 1975 model and let me run in classics???

I raced there at the South Island Cup last year and Teretonga would be my favourite, its a mint track aye, got that chip seal surface so its super grippy, you can come through the infield sooo fast while still cranked over, even saw some silly speeds on my bike at the end of the straight ( faster than ruapuna speeds) only thing is take warm clothes coz its cold as down there... :cold:
