    Any pics I have are so shyte they're not worth putting up, I only made it to the last one they held, what an awesome circuit though,makes the current street circuits look a bit average, 4.6 miles long yeah baby

    Yeah I have a few, but the camera was pretty limited. I'd have to go dig them outta the archives as they are buried somewhere. Got the photos of the road going and race version of the Suzuki McIntoshes. Also a nice pic of me drooling over the CBR1100 Honda, pity I could not afford to buy one ! If you want em just send me a PM wagener at inspire.net.nz

    Heres a couple I happen to have on me .
    I went twice but didn't make the last one. A ferry strike and bad weather which caused our light plane to return home mid Cook Straight.
    Great event. "you coudn't do it these days"

    I'll hunt some more down and post them up

    Here are some pics that might bring back memories. My all time favorite track , fast and very challenging. Ended in Hospital at my first visit there for three weeks , broken ankle and crushed vertabrae in back. S2-a Kawasaki was totalled. Bruce Woodley pic and Poddium pic were taken by Stu Holdaway.

    #44 is Owen Galbraith and #26 is John Woodley both on H2 Kawasakis.
