Mine attach together on the back with a zip, but it's only about 5inches wide... it's done the job in an off before... but I'm hopeing to be able to get a two piece leather set before the trackday

[kickingzebra]

I have paid my dues!! Time after time (which is some time after I said I would) But I'm in dudes!! I may have leather suit by then, otherwise I am in zip together cordura that only zips together at the back.

I just got some feedback from Ninjaboy about the new track
Back to the track.... superb surface, some rubber laid by the V8's but as my mate Aaron said... cause there's no bumps in the surface you don't get any warnings that you're loosing traction. scraped pegs and sliders on the 636 due the confidence in the track ...bring on May
Sounds good dude--hopefully before then therell be some reference points and even more rubber down

Ok made a decision - priced up a towbar for the car and will go ahead with that and drive up. I will transfer $100 in a few minutes Frosty under name MD.
Anyone know if you can hire bike specific trailers in Wgtn? or do I have to stock up on tie downs.

Are you saying I can race a truck or horse float on the track at the same time as the bikes are out! That's kinky. I was intending to take the bike onto the track. But your ideals got merit. I can wipe all the bikes out on the first few corners with the horse float jack-knifing everywhere and claim the checkered flag. Putting 3 or 4 bikes in the float as I raced. Is that a tip for settling down the suspension on the float or is that for better tyre grip?
What's the current Taupo lap time record for a horse float?

Haha, sure you do mate :P
and you too saul <3
We have no more spots available this time, but if all goes well we will be doing this every 2-3 weeks.
You guys and mr Trousers will be the fist to know if i can get you in.

Might orginise another day myself so i could get a few others out there too....

Its $650ish to rent the new part of the track for 3 hours (2-5pm) with a max of 10 on the track at one time (to avoid the ambo requirement). $1000 for the full track for the same amount of time.
would be $33 ($50 full track) each with 20 riders
Leave it with me guys, i will let you know
