Motard scarcity at VMCC. Options?

[Crasherfromwayback]

we have looked at the possibility of using the back circuit along side the 150's... but it would need a duplicate race committee... are there enough motardeers and 150's supports to do this????

The problem is as old as I am. I started racing moto-x bikes on tar...to decide if I liked road racing enough to wanna do it properly. I did...and did. BUT...I was lucky. There were heaps of street racing circuits happening then. I raced at Masterton, Gisborne, Auckland and Wanganui. Before my time there was Taihape, Onekawa and Lyall Bay. I rode a KX500 at Manfeild a couple of times...and it sucked arse. So...I guess I'm saying that as a guy that still loves road racing a modified dirtbikes...it's just how it is. Proper road racing tracks are hard on dirt bikes and boring if you're on one...and it's not the organizers fault we choose to ride mud bikes!

You guys and Gals that wanna road race dirt bikes...get together and organize a decent street circuit with lots of 90 degree corners...short straights...and bumps...and we'll once again give those tar babies a scare!

Till then..stop fucking moaning and leave the organizers in peace.

As you were.

As much as he can wind up some people, what Pete says here makes alot of sense.
Perhaps if the Motarders support the meetings at Taupo this month and September, more organisers might think it is worth getting into.

Enjoy.

We do let the Motards run up here at Mt Welly on the oval, great to watch, but there have been less of them turning up over the last year.

I know they run at Tamuranui Kart Track, which has the dedicated off road section (short but it is off road). Do they run at Roys Hills??

But I agree motard would be no fun at the slipway, and I wouldnt like to see them using Kaitoke after all the effort that has gone in by the welly crew.

My $0.02 anyway.

Yes , they run at roys hill, there is a meeting on today, seem to get good numbers of Buckets and Tards, lots of out of towners too

Not bad at all. Well done for putting it on. How'd that guy riding his front wheel go? Am I missing out a new launch technique?

[Shorty_925]

It worked, he almost got the holeshot!

[That Guy]

looks cools I had planned to be there but still waiting for parts. Next time I hope!
