Need someone with an onboard camera to give a bikes perspective of the track

So when has overtaking one car ever been a bikers problem? Especially when you KNOW there is a clear road in front of him. Come on, where's madboy when you need him?

Not sure how many others went along to check out the new track but if you are planning on Frosty's next track day you are in for a treat.

Only got 3 slowish laps but it is great. Lots of elevation changes and big sweeping corners. Fucking brilliant. Only blemish was a rather nasty bump as you come onto the main straight ( drag strip ) but other than that is nice. Bloody dusty though but that will get better once there is some grass grown.

Well done the fella's and fellesses at Taupo. Bloody brilliant.

Theres a drag meet on this weekend with some very quick aussies coming over ie 3000hp Lambo that does sub 6 sec runs. But if the strip is anthing like what I saw of the TV coverage of the first one it wont be that good. Dust and drag racing just don't mix.
