Pukekohe alterations for V8s. Making the 'hill' more dangerous

[scracha]

The fatality at HD was due to badly adjusted suspension. Rebound had been wound all the way in at both ends so the wheels would've been leaving the ground for much longer than usual.

Bollox. If you watch anyone riding around there at a fair clip you would realise how dangerous that bump was and that it was an accident waiting to happen. The fact that there were big fookin metal posts jutting out from the opposite wall because nobody could be bothered to render them flush was inexcusable.

I believe this had been pointed out to Hampton down by two people and they did SFA about it.

Regardless of this and the suspension theory, nobody should expect to die from falling on a track designed in the 21st century.

You're talking out your arse bro. The suspension adjustment problem wasn't a theory, it was confirmed by multiple people who know what they're doing (therefore they're not posting about it in forums).

So looking at all that concrete is there only going to be cars racing there in the future?

Just looks like a concrete lined circuit like a street race.
Anything that gets out of shape will have very little (if any) time to recover before it hits a wall.
Why have they put the new barriers so far away from the old ones?

I for one am glad i got to ride on it as i doubt there will ever be bikes back there.
