    Eeet Lieeves.

    or at least that is what I would be saying if I could start the thing. For 2 weeks it has been sitting on my bench with petrol in a mini tank & now with the chain on all I'd have to do is turn the tap on & take a few paces dumping the clutch.

    But with one thing or another (like sleeping kids & a tiny operation to counter any further kids arriving precluding me from doing that) I haven't been able to write Eeet Lieeves such as I would like. I did find a couple of impellers in clockwise & anticlockwise patterns so I may be able to modify them rather than making another.

    So Eeet Doesn't lieve, but eet could. Stand by.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    I would help pay for you to get there and ride it yourself rather than have one of those North island pussies ride it

    I would chip in some cash for a chance to race the Brendon RS combo.

    Is there a Taupo this year though? I am saving all my coin for BOB. Shit hot event.

    As for Taupo there HAS to be a GP, maybe if its not going to happen our Cantabrian Friends could work on getting GP Status for the BOB?

    Just an Idea...

    Dunno why you'd even bother running Buckets on that track, you may as well run it at Puke

    It must be quite high speed if you are saying that coz I think of Ruapuna B track as super long and open!
