HEY! not even, At least MY bike still works at the end of the day Froggy!

As 'slow' as you may think it is, it will still haul my ass around the track all day.

Hahaha.... someone in la-la land

Ummm I was on the flags and it is true you gave the field a big head start. You rode well but the only bike you did not pass was the A100. You were about to when the checked flag came out. The flag was for the A 100.
When do you think you passed the speights_bud?
Your bike is quick and would win most of the races at Waipawa but you did not pass the 100, in the race you speak of. Had the race run another lap you probably would have as you were only a bike length behind as you passed the line.
With this in mind how about we start recording the race results for a few months? We will need more help from the riders to make sure this sort of problem does not occur. Do you recon the people not riding in the current race would be happy to record the first three placing? We would have to ask all bikes to put numbers on to help.

If you had passed everyone within the first corner wouldn't you have lapped them every lap? How many laps, in your opinion, were you up on the field by the end of the race?

It was put foward at the club meeting last night that we can start recording places and giving points. Although we cant do that without every rider being both a club member and holding either a mnz or club race licence, including the pockets. The costs involved are quite high, but if we are to continue to race down there the club has to have its cover its ass. Anywho, im sure all will be explained next month.

As for the race last meet, theres a good chance we are talking bout diferent races.. as i only did one. The idea of takn the bike last week was for alistair to get the hang of it. No matter what, i dont mean any hard feelings to speights or anyone else. Guess we are both preaching what we beleive.

As the flag man, im sure you got a few good laugh bout my bike goin round the right hander... will lift that exhaust i thing

we are all supposed to have number boards anyway. The club is gettn real tough! The club licence will be $50, most club members could help with this. Not needed for next meet....

Thanks for the info. Yep motor sport, even at this level costs. However I understand the club must protect it's self and good to hear these matters are raised at the meeting. Lets see what happens. See you next month. Yep the can did a bit of dragging. Was tempted to put a long pipe on it and bend it up cos it must have been preventing Alistair's lean. He rides well.
