It's Kings of Wanneroo this weekend, with lots of international stars (Johnathon Rea, Jeremy McWilliams, Andrew Pitt, Guy Martin, Ryan Farquhar, Keith Amor, Conor Cummins etc etc) descending on Wanneroo to battle it out on with the local guns (Stauffer, Johnson, Stronach) on fairly even superstock spec bikes. It's supposed to be a fairly light hearted thing but racers being racers.....
I follow it 'cos I used to live over there, and follow a couple of the guys.
Anyway it struck me when I came back to NZ a few years back how Suzuki dominate the local racing and road landscape. The blardy things are everywhere. Contrast this with the grid shown here: http://www.mcnews.com.au/MotorcycleR...kings/Day2.htm with only 4 Suzuki's in a grid of 35, and you'll never guess what bike gets pole.....
Bluewing Honda run things totally different to other importers but it's still a completely different racing landscape over there. Weird.......
