Aren't we lucky that the Australians invented Bucket racing

Last trip I had to Woodbourne a civvy lined up various drinks on the bar. Barman said that'll be $3.50 or something like that. civvy replies "no, i'm paying for the lot". $3.50 was for the lot. Couple of bods throwing up in the carpark later in the night. It was a while ago but I can vaguely recall going to the bar with $2 and having serious trouble getting back to my room. Some time round '91 or '92

I remember having the same problem at Woodbourne on my way through to the 6 hour one year, I'm pretty sure it was the "Purple Death" that did it

Yeah, well. I wrote the article for them. I was meant to be giving them a 'profile' of the class/sport and they printed what I sent them. Pics included.

Shows how easy it is if you really want to get something in the paper.

They should probably have put your name on it then...

I fixed the Wikipedia version. It used to be the same as teammaddogracing's. It could do with a little more correction I think but I just didn't know enough at the time.
If anyone has the true story I'll put it there and on www.bucketracing.co.nz

I did add the bit about NZ buckets on Wikipedia as it had nothing at all about what happens here
