Pukekohe open days timetable

[Motoracer]

Dunno where the gate rule came from but when the track is in use, they ALWAYS shut the gates.

Unless you have insurance covering you for racing (F-ing expensive!!), you are never covered for while riding on the track.

You don't have to push it too hard. Just go with what feels right.

[RiderInBlack]

Shouldn't be suggesting this, but as far as Insurance is concerned I'd be tempted to wheel the bike out to the main road and tell the Insurance it happen there. Better yet, get the bike take to some out of the way back road and do the same thing! The only problem is then the police might investagate the "accident site" and ACC would want to increase our bike reg's again.
Na, if you are going to race, you will just have to grin and bare it if you take a cropper. Should be the same if you are going to "race" on the raod. Insurance does not cover for drunk drivers, why should they cover us when we are speeding (here I mean 150KPM+).
PS: I speed!

You'd show them a crashed bike on the road, but no skid marks, no debris scattered around, no evidence of a crash apart from a crashed bike itself. Insurance companies can be crap but they ain't dumb. Get caught doing this and they would prosecute for fraud.

YA, I knew that. I was just shit stirring. It depresses me to think that we are too scared to take risks based on the fact that the Insurance Companies wont payout Think about that. Life is about taking risks! If you don't like the risk, don't take it. If you do, don't exspect the Insurance Companies to cover you!

I am thinking about going for a track day on the 29th of May. Anyone keen to join me?

[White trash]

I'll give you another shot at the title, young fella

Sweet as brotha! I'll have gained some more experience by then too. Is this oppertunity only available if you haven't sold your gixxer by then?

[White trash]

Mate, I'll ride my SRX600 around the track if I've nothing better! You'd be able to lap me once every 3 laps then. :confused2

If it comes to that, I'll give you the chance to do your hot laps for a 20 min session on my bike and I'll have a crack at the next one. Fastest time wins!

anyhoo, how does a strictly suzi man like yourself come to own a yamaha?

just lucky I guess

Anyone else be there on the 3rd of July? Before the BBQ.

Jimbo750 and myself are starters from this end, although I might wuss out and bring the bike up on a ute.

[Easy tiger]

any specific requirements for track days other than a decent bike, helmet and a full license?

[FROSTY:Me]

For your own safety. Id do the following.
Wear a decent lid and gloves. preferably one piece leathers but as a minimum a 2 piece cudura suit.
normal road boots.
As far as the bikes concerned as a minimum. Id tape up the indicators/headlight , make sure you have decent brakes and tread on the tyres. Basicly its your neck on the line if summat craps out --Ohh and have fun out there dude

I might just be tempted. I neeed to get some wear on the right hand side of my tyres.
hey heres a thought --imagine running pukie -reverse direction

[Cajun]

Couple of questions, $80 per vehicle means two people could use the same vehicle and only have the one cost??

Second - if cars come, do they need to have anything with them helmets or anything along those lines??
