    Some small elevation changes as well, you climb uphill at the hairpin on the right end of the photo along a straight and then down again, track runs anti clockwise although I think we ran it both ways last ime

    No date clash with Auckland, both dates look to be a week before Mt Welly.
    I'd suggest fly drive communal efforts from this end, worked out last time we went to Kaitoke.
    Stock is best

    Ride ya bikes on the ferry with one van with ya gear and I'm sure us souf guys can get the bike the 30min to Blenheim from Picton. I think we camped there last time....... Was my second ever bucket meet so was 15 odd years back.


    Its harder to lose weight than gain horsepower.

    Yeah I think you and DC were still on the MBs, still remember following him when he rode the GN reverse circuit and he changed gear the wrong way and nearly highsided

    Camped in Blenheim, got cabins. We did it once with one van with all the bikes and bodies walked on the ferry and were collected on the other side. Seem to remember getting reasonably drunk at Mr & Mrs Marty Wood's. Or that might have been the last Woodbourne GP, there was quite a bit of "getting drunk" going on at that.

    Tis my fav kart track. Sadly im too broken to come as I've been waiting for this to come up again. Make the effort as it's worth the experience. If I'm back together I would consider coming to spectate/ wave a flag.

    Elevation changes are cool down the hill banked corner.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Almost a 1 km per lap, it'll be a endurance race with any more than 5 laps! May have to come in for a drink

    The track is epic, around 50sec a lap ish
    Back at the last big meet there I think Adrian main set the fastest lap with a 46 (I think)
