    I only know what 'we' want here.
    And what if marshals get so pissed off with not being able to recognise bikes...and walk off in frustration?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Or not give the chequered flag to the right bike, because they can't read its number?

    Well I guess that awnsers my question then sorry, it,s Starting to sound like a sidecar or a presidents vote thread now. WHAT WE WANT!

    There is another part too why NZ racing has suffered over the last few years, WE ALL operate in our own little world here, even bikes class rules do NOT fit in with any other country.

    I am NOT ATTACKING MAN, just pushing for REALITY to kick in

    Yeah, true that!
    So how come they still need a chequered flag, or a white one either for that matter?

    And on the start/finish line the transponder is only read as it crosses the line. Heaven help the marshall on point 7 (or any other point) that needs to call in a bike for what ever reason.eg "There's a bike dumping oil out here, its a blue one"

    Marshalls need to read numbers, that's who! The reasons are numerous and have all been stated quite clearly, it's not rocket science.

    It is NOT rocket science NO, but you clearly have a problem with understanding why I ask why it is required as there is NO problems else where, the ACTUALL TRUE problem is the club is so stretched to do what they do for us, ( AND THANKS TO ALL) that they had to STOP DOING SCRUITINEERING which HAS allowed this PROBLEM to grow for the last 3=5 years

    Discuss this? Yeah right. Read through some of your contributions to the discussion again. I have quoted some so you don't even need to go looking.

    Pretty simple - all riders at Actrix Winter Series Round 3 should know it - I read it out. Use the screen if the fairing isn't big enough.
    The simple thing is it must be able to be read by the flag points as you approach them from as far away as possible.
    As I said, it is not rocket science.

    You obviously have as much problem with the english langauge add a thing called a "Sence of Humour" and must be having a bad day or hanging onto or releasing some thing today

    Carry on Driver and have a good day
