HDTboy Race Report PMCC 7/5/06

**HDTboy** · 9th May 2006, 10:21

Woke up late, hooned over to Taupo as fast as the poor little Corolla could go. Got signed in, took the bike up for scrutineering. Got told I couldn't take it on the track as I had a buggered rear wheel bearing which I should've checked myself. Got the problem bearing out and went hunting for a new one. Resigned myself to the fact I wouldn't be racing when Repco said they didn't have one.

Watched racing all day, Helped Vtec get his bike going again.

Broke into BabyBs car and got it started, arranged a towtruck for BabyBs car.

Yeah, that's about it.

Absolutely gutted I couldn't race but I've learnt a hard lesson

Credit where credit is due though Gav:

1) without you Vtec would not have raced that day - you found replacement parts for him and then got them on the bike and the bike running
2) without you I would have dropped my bike in the pits at least twice trying to get the damn thing on and off the stands
3) without you BabyB would still be in Taupo
4) I'm sure there's something else so I'll save this space

I know you were gutted about not being able to race, but you were awesome!

Should have bought my bike aye??? hehehe i heard you did some wicked stuff mate, so think about that (as ks19 pointed out...) There is always Vic Club next weekend...

Yeah thanks for helping put my bike up on the main stand at the end of a race too. I was fucked that day, as it turns out I was there with a severe viral infection. (Still have the runs now...) You should come and not be able to race more often!! Very useful...
