    But seriously Aussie staff are providing us with that service this time.....be great to have more kiwis thou!
    Is there any need for volunteers, corner workers, marshalls or anything like that? I spent a couple of days as a corner worker at VIR (back in the States) when CSS was running a school there, but haven't done any here.

    Will do

    Im hoping to go to VIR and thunderbolt this year - VIR looks amazing!
    VIR is pretty nice, but don't run off track anywhere (not that you would) because there it is all red clay around it. Slippery than baby shit and sticks to everything if you even look at it. Unfortunately at VIR I was on my bro's Ducati (if I had scratched it he would have killed me...................slowly....................... .with a spoon) which I had never taken to the track.......and I was in borrowed gear.....and a whole list of other perfectly legitimate excuses to explain why I was sooo slow. We were using the North course, the right hander (turn 7) up and through 20 and 21 is cool as hell. I've got some video around somewhere from one of the guys that was there with us if you want me to track it down.

    Thunderbolt was my first time on a track. Went up there with my bro and were suppose to do one day on Thunderbolt and one day on Lightning. Unfortunately the second day it was raining pretty hard and washed stuff onto the track, so no run on Lightning. Thunderbolt was a cool track though, and I would be really keen to go back and try it again now that I'm ....................... still slow.

    Is this Matt? (HD ride days Course control) if so they hey dude, Ash is the man sorting that side of the house (off track staff). I do know that because this is a promoted event CSS Aussie have stipulated some staff requirements, and wrangler and course were something that was we were trying to keep 'in house'. We as Black Crow are hiring CSS aussie to come over and provide the product, it just so happens that Black crows share holders can coach for CSS aussie.

    We do want to have more kiwi staff involved PERIOD, be cool to have you there if not this time we are wanting to run more schools in the not so distant future, if your keen fella!

    let me know if you don't have ash's contact dets

    Oh if this isn't matt - sorry!
