What an excellent interview, there aren't many racers who present themselves so well...

I just had a flash forward to the next Auckland champs at Harrisville with BT and Coppins on the start line... :2thumbsup:2thumbsup

Couldn't agree more with what Clmintie said, he really does present himself professionally both on and off the track. I had the privilege of watching both him and Josh race the GP's in Europe and they both highly respected by riders and fans.

If he does start racing here over the summer he'll certainly pull extra crowds in which will be great for the sport.

Good luck BT.

Thought it was Hampton Downs an MX track down there would be bloody great. Be as close as Thunder and/or Kimis by the time youve driven of Hwy 1for all that way! Shit almost even be worth the Puke club moving there??

I look at those big piles of clay everyday on the way past and hope for a moto track, good opportunity to put in a world class track and all the facilities are allready there. I recon they would be silly not to put a moto track in there, maybe link part of it into the main track for supermoto. Heaps of possiblities and I don't think resource concent or noise would be an issue. Just have to wait and see I guess. Fingers crossed.

I though it was too, but i though it was a little more completed that what was shown in the background. Dude a MX track there would be perfect! Right of the motorway.... MINT!!

KP is at Uni in hamilton, still planning on riding at this stage so i have heard, its her 21st brithday party in a couple of weeks,

BT on a MRMC trail ride would not suprise me to be honest, he loves trial riding when he can get time back here,

and there is talk of a hampton downs moto facility, i am working on it,
