Hi there,

try www.manfeild.co.nz

For some reason its spelt feild instead of field, maybe after their own name - anyone know why ??

What time are the keen people leaving Wellington - could ride up as a group ??

I try to get there before 10.00am.

Sure do. It's made up name (as Deano had surmised) Man (for Manawatu) plus feild from Feilding. One of those tricky NZ placenames (a bit like Lyttelton). The curse of a thousand sub-editors...

[darren]

Ill be getting there around 8.30 am
Ill be the one crapping my naps in a corner before going
on the track to see how much I can handle.

Last time out I took a CBR250RR now I have the ZXR250
it should be interesting

see you up there

With a bit of luck I'm there for sure. Gotto finish off my rear slick on the four hundred and find that perfect rear shock setting for the 250.

[Motoracer]

Ok, I didn't find out where exactly it is from the site so where is it?

[Slingshot]

Manfield is just out of Feilding which is just out of Palmerston North. You'd want to leave early if you're coming from the City of Sails.

[Kwaka-Kid]

6.5 hours away.

[Motoracer]

F it then, its too much of a mission right now. Maybe some other time. Gotto get focused on Pukie right now for my first race meeting there

[svs]

Should be there. Need to get towbar fitted to the car though. Watch out for the bright yellow SV

No raining on parades here or anything, but I have a sneaky feeling that this event will be canned due to flooding.

The whole and I mean WHOLE track was submerged on Monday and Tuesday and unfortunately, Manfeild has really shitty drainage.

Not that I could go anyway, Brisbane beckons
