    "Kawasaki Good Time Scrambles" on again

    Well those of the older generation will remember that these events were the biz. Easy flowing natural terrain that anyone could safely race on and go home absolutely buggered with a grin from ear to ear.

    Guess what? Just like Jason from Friday the 13th they are coming back.

    We have secured a really cool paddock (well two actually) for 27th Feb and 20th March.

    Mike Wilkins and Mike Ramsey the founders of this classic have given us their blessing to hold these events as long as we adhere to the original format. That being that the races be about 1.6 minute laps giving 10 minute races. Once the last person is in then there should only be a 2 minute wait until the start of the next class. Quick fire racing.

    I'll post more later but lock these dates in. There seems to be bugger all on in the way of paddock type races now that Ken Fells series has been canned over the summer so we hope to fill the gap.

    Nice. I used to have an early 70s kt250 and where we lived was accross the road from a reserve, that used to be a campsite. Heaps of concrete stairways on a terrace type peice of land, that went down to a river with an old concrete structure dug in, that was a nice swimming hole. If it was wide enough to get the Kawasaki through, we went. Although the swimming hole was all filled in and I doubt that the bike would have liked it anyway.
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
