    For the series in general more notice. I'm a couple of hours from any tracks here but used to go to quite a bit of racing. Finally got to sit down and read the paper about four o'clock this afternoon. Saw an ad for the superbike round at Levels, today and tomorrow. Well that ad was a waste of money. If it had been in the paper last week or the week before I might have made plans.

    there were quite a few came back but a number didn't bother. I did point out i wanted both ends of the riding spectrum to mention not just those at the front overall the response was what i expected with a few chuckles along the way.
    We read them out quite oftyen during the day and i'm printing off more for timaru today.
    thanks for your input

    Exactly. She picked up the info off the program and through the PA and it really made it interesting for her.

    I just found this thread and read through every comment!! One thing I saw come up a lot was stuntbikes. I've been confirmed to ride the Hampton Downs round on the 17-18 of march. I've been in contact with a lot of racing event organizers, and the general reaction is "there's no left over money" now I find out that they were trying to get Aussie riders over?? Don't get me wrong, the Oz boys are amazing, but the costs involved would be 3 times getting the few killer riders in NZ down there. And yeah, it definatly ya definatly need more than 1 rider, but we'll see how HD's goes!! Sounds like the organizers have put a shit load of effort into this one, so please everyone support it!!! Check out www.stuntnz.com for videos, tried to embed off YouTube, but couldn't find them on my phone!

    But yeah, it's the old "need more people so we have more money to get more stuff to get more people but have no money to start with" problem...

    Sorry if it sounded like that but he was an existing club racer returning from Aussie who was really keen to help the club out, but his bikes hadn't arrived in time. He and his mate are awesome stunt riders.
    will be great to see you out there at HD

    Cheers Dean
