    New Zealand champs over 1 track for 2 days once a year.
    Alternating every year between the NI and SI with a diff track every turn.
    That way the cost would be less and if you only wanted to do the NZ champs the classes would be structured in a way the so called premier classes can have a domminant slice of the track time.
    So called minor classes could get all the time they already do in the present format and there is still a NZ or NI or SI champ every year in every class.

    Would it work and would it address the topic of this post thread ?????
    I see it as the exact way the bloody rugby is presently run and that has worked for a while aye.

    That's worth some serious thought mr old fart...I like the North vs South idea as I think it could be marketed well too. When it came to the 'National' round, only the top say 10 in each class would be invited to compete in their discipline (at minimal cost to them as hopefully a promotion company would be more inclined to sponsor such an event) at this event making it the best of the best competing. Also as Quasi says (as I need to suck his cock some more as per the tags on this thread), it needs to be restricted to classes that are of a certain standard...no rust buckets will be permitted to race, pit areas need to have a certain professionalism (as Mick has tried to do this year at Christchurch), along with more brolly dollys!

    I dont agree with the "rust bucket " badging really Marcus. I have many times spanked the opposition on a second hand looking bike and there is a certain "feather in the cap "feeling of doing it on a bike still in development. Look at the bike i built for Steevie, when first on the track it beat every other bike (even with Steevie on it ) and it looked like a total pig . I would argue that the performance and the close racing is more of a crowd attractant than a grid full of shiny bore metres.
    Every class deemed legal under MNZ class rules should be able to contest a national title and if they are not allowed its because its controlled by a biggoted format based on so called glamour class bikes getting the cream. Some of the best racing i have seen ever was in whats been touted as lower class race classes. its not the make up of the bike its the action on the track that counts for enjoyment to watch.
    I want to see any rider with any chosen bike able to stand high like i have and call themselves a national champ and just relish the accolade of knowing they did the best they could and achieved what we all want at the start of any champ series. Winning is not the only reason but its really cool when it happens. Human nature drives us to be competative and i dont like seeing reasons for organiser clubs or organisations to be able to relegate us to dog and shitbox status.

    You wouldn't need to jack it up if there were actual national level riders....can you imagine if they did that in the superbikes....well they just wouldn't. At the end of the day 1NZ wanted to make sure the stayed national champions and so cobbled together a class.....if they are fine with calling themselves national champions racing against who they are racing against then their egos need a stop check!

    MNZ had to change the minimum grid number a few years back to make sure Superbikes could have a class because they were below the minimum required so it isn't unique to sidecars

    So you really need to get your facts right before you start spouting off such a load of crap, there's actually a few of us down here who want to see the Sidecars class survive at a National level regardless of who is winning the title it had fuck all to do with NZ1 "cobbling together a class" just so he could get a title

    Quite interesting to see that you flew to attend the Levels round just to hang out with the sidecar teams all weekend, went out to tea with them, were in the sidecar pits all weekend, so would you like to tell us what changed your attitude or would you rather just shut the fuck up

    At the end of the day - read all the posts - I'm not the only one saying the racing has been a waste of space on the grids.

    I have a sidecar and the sidecar people used to be my friends - but you pro MNZ and anti MNZ crews are all the same though. Sort your fucken class out, stop the in fighting and then and only then it might be worthy of a class in a national series.

    BTW I'm happy to tell you what they think about you too - then you might change your attitude as well!

    the way i remember it the minimum number got dropped from 10-6 because the womans mx classes were struggling to make the grade, i am pretty sure i was the club rep at the conference,

    but it may have been for both reasons, it was the late 90's when it was changed

    You are acting like a TOTAL WANKER, so try shutting your mouth without some thing in it for once!!! O there the problem probally is, Perhaps some one said NO to putting some thing in it for you

    Oh Shaun - I am so incredibly offended by your comments seen as you are such an extremely well liked individual yourself. Have none of you realised that due to the amount of shit talked on this site and at the tracks why would I care what people say and think about me because 99.7% of it is bollocks!

    Anyways - you're right I should fuck off and I'm going to. I've got no investment in the motorcycle community anymore so have asked for my profile to be cancelled.

    I'm sure that roughly 4 years ago the minimum was 10 and Superbikes were unable to make it (but were allowed to run anyway) so the next year the grid limit was lowered to 6

    I am neither pro MNZ or Anti MNZ, I am pro Sidecar
