At last years NZ Superbike Championships we introduced a new fun award dubbed The Oops award aimed at fishing out the behind the scenes things that would make one says Oops; or worse.
W White Wholesalers came on board with an RK Chain Voucher for each round of the five round series and the 'gossip' started to find its way to the Commentators. It turned out to be a popular yet sometimes embarrassing event for those who were put forward so once again W White are putting up an RK voucher at each round of the Nationals.
We're looking for all sorts of happenings both on and off the track and about anyone at the track from competitors to pitcrew etc.
Last weekend young Scout Fletcher set the fastest lap in the NZ 125 Grand Prix and was leading the race till she came off in turn one with a lap or so to go. She would've won but about the only rule we have is you must be at prize giving and she was too sore too.
Another nominee was Seth Devereux for binning it again in turn one, but on the wind down lap. He won an RK Chain voucher for his 'effort'.
It's on again at Levels this weekend and the following rounds so if you hear someone's had an Oops please let the Commentators know about it and if you're brave enough tell the person you nominated so they can be at prize giving.
Last year The Cole's travel and sleep in a bus running of course Nick Cole in superbikes on the Red Devil Racing Kawasaki ZX10. Come bedtime Mum Rosanna settle down in the front of the bus for a kip and Dad Graeme and Mechanic Les moved into the worskhop at he back for some sleep. Rosanna could hear the tinkle of the Rum bottle against glassware so she got up, grabbed a fire extinguisher and opened the door to the back and gave the boys a squirt to settle them down.
Oops, it was powder Extinguisher.....
