Will be bloody awesome for New Zealand, think of the exposure!

Should we start a petition to get the Government off there arse's?!
I could whip up a quick website to lodge petitions

after going round the track this weekend, it's a bit bloody small for the MotoGP to be hacking round it, isn't it..?? Can't wait to see the V8 action on it.. that'd be interesting in itself

That's what I thought. After seeing Stroud and Sam Smith getting around it the GP bikes would spend all of about 10 seconds per lap at vertical. Rest of the time they'd be pissing around in 1st/2nd gear

Interesting as in none?

But then again they would be using the full international 3.4km track for MotoGP. We were only on the new half of the track.

But then again having been on the full track it doesn't seem to have any 300+km straights either

Signed up. Takes 30sec guys, no excuses not to.

**sAsLEX** · 23rd May 2006, 17:43
