Just wonering where would i find more info on bucket racing? it seems to not go in the minimoto section. But im keen to have fun down at the track which isnt half way down the island (taupo).
I know abit about the rules etc, but just wanting to know a wee bit more about other stuff i might need to go racing.
bike, leathers etc anything else? race licence?
I don't think so Tim.
Pays to check the rules before dispensing advice regarding them.

Well, I popped out on Daisy (RZ250) for the first time in 62 days and went to see the minimotos bopping about. Was a fark load of fun, even though I was just spectatoring and then got roped into being a flag marshal!
Actually it was brilliant being out on the track and watching all sorts of lovely two wheel contraptions blatting by... huge grins and big eyes evident on all the racers!
Only had to wave my flag once when someone ran wide and laid on the track (he was okay and off like a shot again!) Only had one bin in front of me which I was concerned about - a scooter bit into the track on the tight hairpin and spat the rider off! No worries... he was up and riding again
Insane1 was already there and chatting up the local racers, I was just glad to ogle and drool over the panoply of perambulatory machinery on offer!
Wish I coulda stayed longer, but I had a retardme auction to see to! Will be definitely coming back and bringing my own minimoto next time (when I can get the brakes to work properly!)
Big ups and mad props to all involved ... was very kewl...![]()

Hey people, was a great day yesterday. I was out there doing solo sessions on my KLX250 (motard thing) and had a heap of fun. Also had a couple of sessions on Ellen's 'Banana' bucket which was also a heap of fun, although some knee sliders would have gone a long way to getting my lap times down..
Anyhow had a wicked time and hope to see you all again soon.
Been, seen and going next year.
