Will there be track timing?

In that case I better lap under 1 min 39 seconds. What comes after 99?

Bikes Only. Must be warrented/road fit or up to MNZ standards for race bikes
Signon probably from around 8:15. It's only a track day - I don't want to have to be there too early
Join VMCC: See website
You might be able to change groups. Depending on numbers and also you wouldn't be able to go out in 2 groups in the same set of sessions.
Slow group will probably have a lead rider
If you're an idiot we reserve the right to chuck you out
If you're too fast/slow we might ask you to change groups

if i make it out, i'll get luke to wave a flag for ya... or i'll kill him... sound ok?

Yeah, but my average lap on the 10 goes somthing like this....
Faster, faster, woah BRAKE BRAKE BRAKE, shit am I gonna make it!!! Whew, faster faster, ARRRGGGGGGG BRAKE BRAKE, bloody gas it ya woose, faster, faster, SHIT!!! BRAKES BRAKES BRAKES oh, where is that laptimer thingie again?
Yep, with the trigger on the throttle and brake side, I never worked out where I ever had time to use it, we removed the left hand switch block now anyways, so cannot activate it!
Though I do like the shift light thingie! (I set mine 1000 rpm before redline)

Sunday is $50 for anyone. Hadn't planned discounting again for VMCC members since you got the free day on Saturday. Will raise it with committee though.

if you can afford a bayliss i dont think 50 will have you seraching far, youll probably want change for your 1000 dollar note.
