Pity about Pukekohe not being suitable for 150 racing, would it be possible to put a chicane on the front and back straights just with cones to give the 150's an Akld track? Got to be a good development class rather than the expense and maintenance of 125GP.
Regarding Australia Avalon finished 8th in the final but for the Red Bull series there is bonus points for 5 riders judged by three independant people for MACS; Marketability, Attitude, Character and Skill. Bonus points of 8,5,3,2,1. She got second highest and the 5 extra points moving her to 5th overall for Red Bull series but I think remains on 8th for the Australian championship so far. 21 riders at Oran Park, less than expected, probably because bikes too expensive - must come from Honda Australia. First round for Juniors was on the basic figure 8 of Oran Park circuit, fairly big compared to Kart tracks and small for a GP circuit. Karts do use some of this end of the track with extra wiggly bits chucked in as well.
