a man should be itching to get on it, let Kaiser have a word with him

If he's baulking at paying this money then wait till there's a bill for tyres ferries batteries fuel entry fees etc etc .
get someone that wants to do it!

I'm nt going to get into an discussion about it but like i said these are rounds we had not planned to do which means they haven't been budgeted for, He will be on for the HAGD and the truck meeting and next season will be all go. End of discussion

yea 200 bucks for 4-6 days of track play (if you do the fridays)... tell him to get keen! You will want to have a few signings on a license if you want to do Wanganui.. might be pushing it if you miss nat rounds.. cause you only have the barry sheene then until wangas?

edit: Forgot Darren is swinging for pirate.. duh..

failing that.. Darren Prentis on facebook.. he's always looking for a seat.

edit: I have Darrens number actually if you want it.

We'll be good to go for Wangas, i've still got my solo as well so if we need to he can race that to get the stamps.

Tight, oh well hopefully you find a swinger.. Gordy or Drew.. go on.. you need practice since your not racing your own.

I forgot Darrens is swinging for pirate at nat rounds.. he is looking for a seat for Paeroa though.

**Danger Dave** · 30th January 2013, 10:16

Unfortunately i won't be at Paeroa as thats the weekend that i'm heading down to collect my bike.

How big does the trailer need to be? i may have one you can use depending on size.

Round five NZ Champs

Ricoh Taupo Motorsport Park are holding TWO test days for the event, one on the Thursday and on the Friday. Both are $100 per bike and garage hire for the Thursday is $25.00.
not sure whether you'll require a race license for these days out....

Because riding a superbike & swinging on a sidecar are virtually one & the same thing.

I know its not even remotely close and we will be doing as many test days as possable beforehand however in theory you could do 3 races at a bucket track and the stamps would count

I'm far from an expert now, but the first time I sat on a Sidecar was the first round of the Nationals a couple years back.

Same same........ and we came fourth...... Well, Bob had a missus at the time, so I think he had a few more than me....... she was a sharing type.....
