i tuned in quite early and all they could talk about was them not starting, but seem to forget we're not all watching for hours and not all in the loop, a quick repeat would be nice to keep us informed....

thought I would post this here for those that only look in this thread. I don't know if this affects other track day providers there.

Hi People, yes it was the last Playday at Hampton's on Sunday. A sad day and out of our control, we were told only 2 weeks ago that all our bookings were to be moved to the little 1.1k track and that a $30 health and safety tax was to be imposed on all entrants without any notice, this would start from the 1st July. We were also told that Playday would not be allowed to host any bike events at Hamptons. When we asked if our existing bookings would be honoured as Playday had already advertised and sold many spots to people the answer was “NO” This left us no choice but to cancel the events we had booked, refund to all those that had pre-paid and also apologise to all our customers for mucking them around. Playday has had an awesome 6 years at Hampton's and made some really good friends and given plenty of smiles but that chapter has closed but all is not bad, Playday will be offering days on a regular basis at Puke, Taupo and Manfeild. Thanks for all the support guys, we will see you at the race track real soon. Cheers, The Playday Team

Those play day dicks are knobs. The track days will now be run by HD. Called motoHD in fact. Read the comments on face book. Funny as fuck.

No idea. They looked like Tards on Facebook when HD and then Tony Quinn started replying.

They're simple folk in the nicest possible way with a heap of soul, & I could see how that might look to be the case.

No idea.

...even the mostest cleveristist of us sometimes don't cum across as that, at times...I think it must be a human trait...and piss and drugs and boredom and motorcycle racing and shit...

Actually, after reading it again they didn't make the comment I thought was them.

They did take down all of Sloan's comments though.

Spyda, Moly has had engine issues all practice week, should be ok for friday. Darren prentis has a hamsting injury just by being flung around and wasnt allowed out for monday practice this week, hoping they can out on thurs night before the race on friday, but he is a happy boy getting a 100mph lap and a finish. i believe colin and robbie had an electical problem forcing them to retire at end of lap 1, will be ok for friday. and RIP to Dwight Beare who last year shared a marque with Dags and Richie, and me and Darren, he was a great guy and was improving really well and also doing well in the british champs. It is believed he touched the kerb after bishopcourt which sent him into the bank on the other side of the road. Chris

bishop court got Pat Hennen too back in 77
was rapped that darren got a finish. thanks for the update, tough game this IOM, when i was there we had ten in our team, watching them come in was like waiting for the aircrews coming back from a raid, and when the helicopter started your heart raqced, when it started and stopped straight away that was even worseerer....
thanks for the update

I have come to a point in my life where the idea that competing at the IOM is a good thing to do has got me completely fucked.
Currently all we seem to have in the sidecar field is stress, pain, dissapointment & death, & that's just amongst the people I know/knew personally.
