    North vs South bucket extravaganza

    Hi guys

    We have the option to run on the kart track in Blenheim again
    Several people have raised the idea of a group coming down from the North Island and a group up from chch to race on what many reckon is the best bucket track around
    Of course the Nelson guys are keen and we are starting to get some enthusiasm from the Blenheim locals
    The last meeting we had there was on one of the kart clubs fun days and was easy going with plenty of racing
    Options for the next one are 2nd of August or 4th of October

    Who's keen!

    I'm keen (depending on University load at the time), and I have a spare space in the trailer if anyone can't get a ride up there from Chch

    OK, so Paul has started a thread here on F4 Racing forum

    http://www.fxr150.co.nz/forum/showth...t-extravaganza

    But we'll keep both updated as we sort out dates etc.

    If at all possible I'd be keen. Of all the kart tracks I like this one the best. Will rev up Dave & Gary as well

    BOB was the week before from memory, not quite lose enough to link them all in one trip.
    Still Blenheim isn't hard from Wellington.

    I could be keen depending on work and financial situation by then, being unemployed sucks.
    Stock is best

    Worth noting that as this is a Kart track all bikes will require FULL nylon to pass scrutineering. Your bike must not cause any damage to the track in the event that you fall off trying to go as slow as me.

    It is

    Long time since we've been there, Jay Lawrance was skinny back then, they've always been ok with us going back there but after long tracks down here not to many guys were that keen last time we looked at it
