    Take note guys, the big track is shortened on Saturday to accomodate the lengthened national mini-track.

    i went to round 4 when the track was run the normal or natural way not reversed. prety quick hardpack lots of rocks (built on /near a quarry) so wear good chest protector unless you holeshot and check out lol

    i liked the track a lot of step ups and step downs and a really nice double downhill in the niddle of the track

    btw Fells Farm MX is on the same day Sunday the 5th
    I live my life a quarter mile at a time for those 10 secs ....LOL

    yep i saw sth waikato club day at tokoroa same day on the 5th.. plenty of racing to choose from

    yea they run slater reversed and there are a few tabletops but nuthin realy that big its all 30-40ft stuff. ive never done it when its run reversed but my mate dave reckoned he enjoyed it better run that way? Fells is natural rolling terrain with quite a wide GP flow to it can be fun passing people in the sweepers etc Ken has put some tabletops and berms in sections but for the most part its natural.
