    $500 late entry fee for Paeroa!

    Of late my priority was just getting through the South Island rounds of NZSBK. Raced back to work and figured out I'll get home again just in time to make Paeroa so downloaded an entry form. Closing date was 21st of Jan, no probs I'll see if I can throw in a late entry....normally $50 or so right? Check the entry form and it says $500!

    Must be a misprint....surely....one phone call later and I'm speechless after listening to the voice on the other end of the phone: $500 it is! My apologies to the nice lady I hung up on.

    Needless to say the bike will be staying in the shed.

    You'd want your name mentioned on the P.A as a major sponsor for that sort of coin How much to enter multiple classes?

    Haha, it is fuckin' funny mate, open up the rider's info link and at top of page in bold type it says:

    "Riders... Where would we be without you?"

    You'll be right son, you're on the poster. Just tell them to keep your "Poster appearance fee" for the late entry. Sound as a pound.

    From the disappointing amount of entries last year, combined with the drop in spectator numbers....you'd think they'd get their shit sorted.

    Don't you just love it? NZCMRR are milking their entrants dry as well, even charging camping fees. The racers provide the entertainment, they should play for free. Seems all these clubs have some sort of self destructive virus.If you listen real closely, sometimes you can hear the banjo music playin in the background.

    having been in both situations, i can understand the late entry fee, but that is a bit over the top, but motorcycle racers are not the most organised of people at times,

    Mate I'm taking my Piano accordian to PUKE so any three fingered Banjo music will be drowned out well and truly

    Not even a clown pays to preform in a circus show but we are expected to.

    Anyone bothered to contact Paeroa and find out, MMMM. Thought not. Easier to bitch and moan on Kiwibiker than to actually get the facts.

    What a fucking rip off and a huge kick in the arse to those who never got their entries in time due to Racing down Sth. Isn't it better to have bums on seats and have good healthy fields without turning riders away with this ridiculous Late Entry Fee.
    So much for keeping this sport alive. SHAMEFUL.
