    Thats just the joys of a country split in two,

    Do you think it is easy for North Islanders to have to spend three weeks down South, or have three seperate trips down there.
    It's not that I'm wrong- It's your too dumb to understand!!!

    No I dont think its easier for you... all I am noting is that there is a weeks break between the 2 N/I events, it would have been easier if they were 2 weekends in a row.

    Plus the S/I rounds are in one straight line over 3 consecutive weekends, Ruapuna, Levels, Teretonga, where as the N/I are up to Paeroa, down to Manfield, up to Puke... strange thinking on MNZ's part.

    Unless you like to throw your bike down the track every meet!

    I guess I've missed something somewhere along the line, but how come there isn't a round of the Nats at Taupo?

    No club wants to put their hand up to do it.
    It is also expensive to run for 3 days of track hire.

    I think 1258's were the only championship class that didn't get coverage last year

    Anyone know how much it will cost for spectator entry to Ruapuna???
