I'm gonna chip in here coz i've been officially accepted as a race official at Phillip Island
Gonna go fill my pockets with carbon fibre pieces![]()
Aint that the truth haha!
If anyone is interested in doing it next year it is open to anyone to apply, previous experience is preferred but not necessary. If you'd like a taste come marshal at the summer series![]()
Yes its Darren Heeman with an 'm' from Nelson. I enjoyed his antics at Wanganui and even at the Wellington Street races in 1997.
One story about him here http://www.stuff.co.nz/nelson-mail/s...lar-port-races
... and another with a pic here http://www.new-zealand-pictures.com/...-street-races/
Crasher, you're a Harley salesman - do you tell the buyers stuff like this "It's the heaviest race bike out there, which gives me a better jump off the start and means I can brake later into the corner."
No wonder Pedrosa didn't get the jump on George on Sunday, he's too light.
Cheers

I mentioned that fact ages ago mate.
I raced against him at Wanganui in maybe 1995? When was the Welly Street Race after all?
No. But I tell my customers...that if they want to chase down Japanese Sports bikes on a big block Harley...they need to use a Softail. Preferably an FXST. It's what I use.
