... and there was me trusting MNZ's roll of honour records http://mnz.edev.co.nz/docs/about-us/...F.pdf?sfvrsn=2
Bernard was the only one I looked up, the others I followed them at the time whereas Bernard was such a low key guy it seemed to me I never would have known where he was racing. No doubt there have been others in recent times old blokes like me haven't bothered following either that others might be able to name.
Only point I was making really was that but a few NZers have had or been given the opportunity to race at Daytona and now the person of whom this thread is about is getting that opportunity while from a smallish country, Slovakia. I hope she does well as not many we know get to do that - the high banking and all.
Cheers

Watched the video, seeing her with what I'm guessing is the team owner sporting a (for now) big grin on his face as she leans into him, pretty much shows she still running the same mode of operation![]()
And yes, my understanding is she burned a trail of destruction of bikes and other peoples wallets in her short stay in NZ.
Judging from her team mates needless bouncing of the motor off the rev limiter, she is in the right team!

I watched all of BSB superstock for the last 2 seasons and never saw her finish in any placing, let alone even get mentioned. Couldn't find any results either.
When she was announced as a team rider there the blurb made out she was a top contender/finisher in NZ SBK's. Now she's one of the top in the world?
No one is obviously doing any homework before hiring her.
She's a nice enough chick, talked with her briefly at Manfeild once, then made sure once I'd passed her on track I got well clear, didn't want to be taken out to be honest.
But whatever she has/does, it's gotta be fuckin great!
She's a lucky girl, getting those rides...........can't be anything but envious. I just hope she has matured as a racer to not destroy, mame at all costs like she has done in the past.
The power of the pussy is astounding sometimes.
There are some shots on the net of her time at MSS Clochester/Bathams Kawasaki on the 1000 superstock. One shows here in a slide that will only end in one outcome
Another shows her doing a stoppie to aviod hitting her team mate up the arse............ (in the pit exit road!!!!)
I cant be sure but i think more than once she failed to make the grid due to destroying the bike in either practice or qualifying.
And as i said earlier the team are absent from the BSB grid this year for the fisrt time since it was formed i believe. Whete
her or not she had anything to do with that who knows. Team owner and genuine good bloke Nick Morgan still seems to support her since she left.......... so he obviously must have thoughtt the whole exercise was worth it.
I wouls say there is a few stories from the BSB pits that would make good listening knowing some of those guys..............
