    The stunts in the extras are better as they are just the real deal jamming.

    What about hiring runway 3 at whenuapai airbase. Its like solid concrete slab-wide as and not being used.
    It would take a bit of organising but has HUUGE advantages over other venues
    Paraparaumu has a closed runway also - it is used exclusively for driver training - you might want to try there also

    Yep its still on.

    I am not sure if this area will be free or not later this morning. I just went there and checked it out and it looks all good. If you want to come just for a watch, please keep in mind that it might still be called off tomorrow for what ever reason when we reach there. If this happens, the rest of us will just go for a ride.

    See yous who are comming in approx 8:45 mins.... 8.45mins??? fuck!! I still haven't done shit too my bike! Guess I'll be wakeing up in 4 hours then getting the race fairings off, putting road gear on etc.

    I finally made it on time! Couldn't belive it. Met up with Death, Draco, Brockhaus, Erik plus a few of my other non KB mates.

    Waited till about 10:25. Still half the stunters were no where to be found! JR, Fzero, CK? Where were ya??

    Headed off to the chosen location. Unloaded my bike from the van and rode it for the fist time after the track day (I know, I know, excusess have already begun...). I tried what I could but shit it was hard. 1) I really should have gotten used to the power before trying wheelies. 2, having 3-4 cameras and a few people watching definetly makes you nervous. After having a few gos, I decided it was enough and I'd save the bike for the ride after.

    Any way, after my amature run, Death fires up his beasty 7fiddy and yup, The real show began.

    F-ing Stand up wheelies, One foot (as in the one leg not the height) stand up wheelies. This guy was unstopable! He even snuck in a one handed standup wheelie in there (I think it was a standup). Then he did some pretty cool burnouts too.

    I let him have a go on my 6hundy and the wheelies were just as good to watch. Its quite a feeling to watch your bike go flying past on one wheel (hmmm, may that could be me one day... maybe...)

    Me and a few other mates mucked about on the FXR and 400 etc. Brockhaus even managed to lift up the front wheel on his mamoth TDM850

    As the nice guys who did the photography left, they did some mean burnouts in their cage as well.

    After all the excitment, we decided to go for a ride down SH22. Got as far as Hunua then all things turned pear shaped (as you guys say). The guy I was following lost it on some heavy UNMARKED gravel. It was fairly low speed so not much damage was done to bike and the rider was sweet. As we were helping him up, we noticed that we were one guy short. Sure enough that guy had lost it 1 corner back. He too was fine and the bike wasn't too bad either.

    Half the party now turned back. We stopped at the petrol station to help fix some leak in the radiator of one of the bikes. We prolly spent nearly 30mins there. I had to go back to work so after all these stops I unfortunatly had to turn back.

    It was a good trial I reckon. If more people actually turn up next time, it would be much better. Death mate, good thing you came otherwise all the guys would be strangeling me with my poor stunting skills lol. Too bad we couldn't really go on a ride either but theres always next time (next weekend?)

    Thanx for comming along guys, see ya.

    Hey sounds like you guys had fun!

    I spent the day with KK's old 323 at Meremere drags. Fastest run was 19.47, a mockery but all good fun!!

    Saw a Hyabusa doing 11s, going at over 220k's at the finish line.

    I think I may take the 250 down some time.

    The stupid dial up 56k modem was taking for ever. I'll just have to download it at work then post it here after editing any clues of the location and licence plate numbers etc.

    Andrew, you got a 19.47? You didn't manage to get passed by old ladies riding mopeds did ya?

    Na, jokes bro. You should bring that video around next weekend to the party. I'll bring my "jump" one as well. Should be worth a few laughs.
