Might be pushing it a bit.  Mine took 2 weeks exactly and that was with a "hurry up I'm racing this weekend" phonecall.

Not exactly BB   Scary thought really LOL

Everyone renew's their race licence at the same time, so around July it can be a nightmare.  The rest of the year it is anyone's guess.  It's not a problem though, if you have not received your licence and want to race, all you have to do is contact MNZ and ask them to fax a licence confermation (ie yes you have applied and paid) to the motorcycle club that is hosting the event.  Might pay to get them to also fax something to you as the system does not always work as it should.

nah CK you wont :P haha im just saying that, because out of all us KB'ers talknig about racing.. im the first one thats gunna b doing it mehehe!

anyways yeah well soft commuting is me despite the fact that it doesnt go on street, race only bike.. hmm... and secondly my old man told me if u get really desperate and there is no time for any scrubbing, whip out the old methelated spirits... give them a good wipe down i dont think i will do that tho, ill stick to traditional methods.. prolly will spill off! haha nah! i swear i am going SOFT AZ on purpose as like my dad said, if i come off this sunday i prolly wont have time around work to repair in time.. so i mean really soft and i wont fall off! and if i do you may all point fun of me and laugh for falling off when not even pushing myself... but hey, theres a chance of that, it is me we are talking about.

and Si.. Sheeesh? little innocent me? ask greg how innocent i am

 aye mitch! your the devilish weirdo one!

oh and to cut costs, mind if i sleep in tha car Si? down fielding? spose i could get room.. but pah, im young and can handle, and dont mind   we is gunna have FUN FUN FUN! hell yeah... we should start a KB racing team or somthing! oh and lastly.. i spose its hardly worth asking.. but is the racing number 69 taken? (dont expect you to answer Si as im thinking you only ever looked into getting the racing number 66 -sick sucker!) if not id like the number 041.

WHOA there Newbe!

41 is already claimed!

And it would be a bit embarassing to have two #41's fighty it out for last place in F3

And thr rules SAY! No three digit # allowed!
Then again, I could use that as a technicality to get you disqualified from any race in which you get passed me. Thou just saying "It's KK!" should raise the eyebrows of the officials and get them rechecking your machine!

And WHAT is that machine again??

With all this talk of scrubbing tyres in... what's the deal with 'cooking' tyres?

[curious george]

Take two tyres, in pre-heated oven @220 C, bake for 20mins or untill golden brown colour. Black smoke indicates overcooking.

After repeated scrubbing (hard out cornering action), or if your oven temp is too high, this can cook the tyre, changing the characteristics if the tyre.

Well to paraphrase the bald headed white guy in top gun, about time kk's body started cashing the cheques his mouth has been writing.

Good on you KK all shit aside look after yourself and have fun!

Ciao,

KK, funny I run with number 70...that's 69 plus 1

No you can't sleep in the car, you tight git. the accom we use in Manfeild is cheap as. The idea is to get some decent kip so you're fit to race the next day, not ready up an excuse as to why you couldn't perform on the day.

BB, no it's not adopting it's good racing sense. 3 bikes....1 killer 4x4 to tow them and carry all the gear, 3 riders, sharing all the costs both ways for fuel. Spare drivers in case one of us falls off and can't drive home, and extra pairs of hands to help fix things when stuff happens.....oh and someone captive to listen to the bullshit stories on the way home.

BTW the plan is not just the 1 race, but 2 days of back to back racing. Manfeild long track on saturday, Pukekohe on the Sunday. What a great start to my birthday week.

Sound like you may end up holding KK's hand when he falls off then helping him fix his 140km slide before listening to 8 hours of war stories about a 4 hour race. lmao.

[bluninja]

Hold my hand? No. Follow me round the track...YES!

S - seeing as you are coming down to Manfield - fancy picking me up from Welly so I can watch - and then dropping me back???  I won't be able to drive you see??



 

[bluninja]

Dan, would like to but we (Mitch and KK)are racing at Pukekohe the next day, and we will be away as soon as poss to get back up north and get rested. We're even going to be staying at Puke for the night to save the extra hour trip into Akl and then back again the next morning. What about Racey?

[wkid_one]

Hmmm...if I can't find a ride - will just have to wish you luck instead.  Want to see KK's first outing tho.
