Yeha that sounds really good , when I first heard about the money - I thought great it should really get all those racers out of there caves

.

Yeah, that looks really good. I will definately be there, although at this stage it looks like i will be push biking out

But it is only 10kms or so, well worth it.

Might see you guys there.

The original intention was meant to have all 10 bikes built at the meeting ,at the Sound of Thunder several people said that wasn't happening and they hope to have 5,no word as to whether any of them will see any time on the track.

**k14** · 1st March 2004, 16:45

Damn, that will be awesome. Guess the collectors in the states with ones were a little weary about letting them out of their sites. But 5 is still a decent effort.

Stroud must be going to do a demo atleast.

Is anyone interested in getting together and sharing expenses to drive down to Ruapuna and back?

Please pm me with contact details if you are interested, and maybe we can organise 3 or 4 people and do this?

Hmmm, maybe no-one wants to be seen driving in their, or anyone's Cage heheh!
