Lots of points to think about Scrivy. Thanks

But can ya go as fast as us around a track two up?? Do we set a challenge up?? Could be worth a laugh!!

As for the age thing..... I was still riding a trike at 14..... just never managed to progress....
Now you've just hurt my feelings........

Well, how about I race with your number 20 Frosty, and you race with mine????

**FROSTY:Me** · 17th May 2007, 20:54

No its all sorted
Ive checked MNZ rule 20/16-46a
ANY cycle using the number 20 MUST paint the bike a ghay colour
Sok Jimmy --Im bringing the spraycans of pink paint in case ya decide to stick to MY number

rofl... you boys.... take it to the school yard i say...
na, VMCC use transponders... numbers are all for looks...
but for the record.. the MNZ number allocated for the class has the right, so in theory Frosty should change, however, they could always use their brains and note the difference in appearance... yours is black on a yellow label, Frosty's is white on a Black label so no confusion here!

Now that would be good to watch, 'course you'd have to use the same pillion/passenger to standardise the testing.....poor bastid.

As for not progressing past training wheels it just sounds like common or garden variety performance anxiety.

Just follow standard procedure: turn the lights out, relax a bit and just go with the flow.....empty your mind...touch her...stroke her....isn't she beautiful...easy big fella....it's not a race (yet)....how's that feelin'?.....now slip into I mean onto it....keep warming her up....that's it....is she hot now?...you're doing great....ok, speed it up a bit...now, don't release it too quickly...just eeease it out....aaaaaaah. There you go, you're away! Faster! Don't stop! Don't stop! Uh oh...oh...oh...(SPLAT!)OH! That's OK mate, none of us lasted very long our first time.....

Sorry Frosty, not exactly up with the rules etc but this is the only logical response.

where's the 'White Trash is an arsehole" option?

Edit: Haha, well look at that, I can add it on. You know what you've got to do folks!

New rider, "B", comes along and registers with MNZ his number (20 for arguments sake) for the two classes he intends on competeing in, Sports production and Production Superbike.

Now for an upcoming meeting, Rider A decides that he'll cross enter into F2 (Sports production) listing number 20 as his race number. Rider B has already entered in F1 and F2 with his MNZ issued number for both classes.

Who should change for the F2 races?

or you could just not bother about it because your not going to be sharing the same transponder... as last year there were def double ups with cross entering...it won't matter if you have the same number...

but I can understand you not wanting to be confussed on the track being similar paced riders and all...wouldn't want your groupiesw cheering on the opposition now eh!!

**Shaun Harris** · 18th May 2007, 09:36

This problem is to easy. Jimmy, I want my back back, it cannot ever have the same number, as a Gay Pink bike, sorry dude

Goddamit woman, where was that option when I voted?!!!

**codgyoleracer** · 18th May 2007, 11:17

Background plate colours will be different anyway ?, I suppose first allocated entry for the crossentered clashing class would have first option to keep their number ? (transponders solve it really from a results point of view, but for safety & crash reporting from checkpoint marshals - numbers should be individual)
