Bucket GP 2013

[Rick 52]

The Auckland bucket committee are very keen to organise a GP this year as no other club has put their hand up and we only have 3 months to get this organised as the MNZ calendar goes from the end of June, we are interested in how much support we would receive..
Big tracks are great and makes the GP a bigger more exciting event but the cost is too high, after trying to get to a compromise eg cost, location, organised in a short time, we came up with Tokoroa kart track on either the 20,21th of April or the 11,12th May it is a fantastic track with free camping, club rooms and we can use the Auckland club transponder timing system as we have done for the North Island rounds.. Saturday would be practice and support races for racers not wanting to get a full licence and Sunday we would use for qualifying and the F4 and the F5 GP and would be about 40 laps each and if time allows fun racers to Finish the day..Come on Bucketeres who is up for a fantastic weekend away and compete in a national event??

Well, given you guys have actually put yours hand up to make it happen; then sh!t we (Team GPR) are in.
I Haven't had that much joy this end of island.

And while I personally think Taupo for the GP is Fken cool; the price is just too much without support.
Tokoroa is a great track and would be a lot of fun.


So that's another 5-6 solo riders & a sidecar...

If it go's forth:
Given that it is a bucket only event; could we consider a B-Grade GP (like the old days?).


Now where's chucky

Never bought a license this season and can't do the GP on a day license. Can't really be fucked getting one at the end of the season either.

Fully understand Pumba..what about just bringing the family and camping, a bit of flagging or helping out for the sunday and I will shout you a day licence for the Saturday ..It would be great to see you guys ..
