Lack of information on the site for those who haven't been there.

Can someone add some details:
Is there public viewing all around?
Is there plenty of parking and is ist easy to get in and out, or is it best to arrive on 2 wheels?
What is the cost for spectators?

Click my sig. It's all there including a map on how to get to the track.

Spectators are (usually) welcome. Dress warm. Winding gravel entry track.

A 'youtube' of a race a here (cellphone) and a short motard clip here

**F5 Dave** · 25th June 2007, 09:32

Well glad I didn't go down to Ruapuna as planned, had been feeling sick & the 125 didn't get going so would have been a wasted trip. + our weather was pretty good. The 50 as can see from the clip did the biz anyway.

Jay come back -I need 'the learn'.

**FlangMasterJ** · 25th June 2007, 13:12

How's the track with the buckets? It's probebly a little easier with the motards. When is the next meet?

**bungbung** · 25th June 2007, 13:27

A calendar of race dates is here: http://www.scs.net.nz/calendar.php

flows quite well really, you just have to get confident with tipping the bike in pretty fast to get good lap-times. Better clockwise in my opinion, but running both ways is variety.

**Rashika** · 26th June 2007, 15:20

damn its a wee track, l'd be worried about going over the edge all the time

great clip tho, good to see the whole circuit.

Oh yeah and by the way, it might pay to keep sept 30th free if its possible, if you want a humdinga of a challenge

For any of you norf islanders who wanna take on the southern lot... I'm sure Dangerous will pass on a few details as soon as he has some.

**F5 Dave** · 26th June 2007, 16:02

Track seems bigger when you are on it. I thought it would be too small but it is ok.

We have a wgtn meeting then but if it is Battle of the Buckets on Rua B track then I'm there this time.

Yep on B track........ but you can only bring a 50cc bike and use first gear.
