    Only the 2 Classes when I started - With lights and Without ........ remember being flat out down the straight, crawling under the paint on the tank on my 125, and P McLachlan went past on the mighty TZ and changed up 4 times !!!!! God, I wanted one .......

    Right there is where we all went wrong,

    Those at the coalface who KNOW whats going on,Are time and again let down by the handwringers/Do gooders who try to justify their free lunches.

    Rulechanges,

    Due to a change in my personal circumstances,I will not be handling ANY proposed rulechanges going forward,Please ensure all rulechange proposals are sent directly to Monique@mnz.co.nz for whomever maybe my replacement to deal with,From now through to the MNZ AGM,I will only be dealing with NZSBK and the normal day to day running of the commission business.
