One of the favourites

Let me know soonish as the front needs cutting off the scooter and some serious modifications done.

I think we should be OK. As far as I know

Carl
Me and Rick
Lawrence x2
Des
Hillbillies
Brenton's rig

Makes seven, having more wouldn't go amiss but getting it there could be a problem.

Hopefully Brenton's Chair will make it down and I can drive/swing.

I've been trying to get a ring-in expert but the event clashes with the hill climb in the Wairarapa.

It may come down to press ganging someone on the day, there will be enough people with the licences, maybe just to the will/stupidity required, easy fixed with threats of violence/bribery.

Spares would be really, really good as breakdowns are 'possible'

Oh Ye of little faith. We have set the program for Saturday with sidecars getting one practice / qual session then straight into the GP. Less time for things to break.

I had a call from Chris the other day and we will see at the next Mt Welly meet if its possible to get three rigs into his truck, but rest assured if this fails I still have the trailer so 100% my rig will be there. Koba has first dibs but I suppose we will see on the day how things play out, I wont be running in the GP but anyone with a licence can hop on/pilot (if Malcolm cant for any reason).
Spent the other night making a small tweak that might give the blue rig a slight boost, really interested to she how it goes against the others.

Hi Guys good on Brenton for offering it for someone to use in GP. If it doesnt fit in the truck or he insists on taking it dowm himself, maybe we can get the scooter in the truck to get it there, 8 will be better than 7, I have organised Gordy & Tina to ride Rithies sidecar . Tracey from pinky racing will swing on mine, & then she will ride it in other events after the GP race. Do i need to find any other licenced riders/ swingers for GP race ?

Awesome, cheers!

I have a maybe, someone who is keen for the other spot on Brentons, still need to confirm though.

Warned Mike that we might be trying to jam him on a chair today at Paeroa, he didn't run screaming.

**Danger Dave** · 28th February 2014, 15:11

If i had one i'd be there

unless someone has a shrink ray i can use on my full size chair

**seymour14** · 11th March 2015, 13:58

A full year has come and gone, so have we the numbers for 2015?

Ours is in complete pieces, but that's never stopped us before...

**Henk** · 11th March 2015, 15:56

We're in.
Brenton is supposed to be bringing his
Des is bringing two
The Lawrences have three or four.

Get yours put together, we will probably have to do some scrounging around to put crews together but it would be a shame to not run it if we can scrape the numbers together.
