Cemetery circuit

**kerryg** · 29th November 2004, 14:57

Looks like I might get to Wanganui on Boxing Day if all goes according to plan. Thinking I might head down on Xmas day (Xmas day's a bit *complicated* in my family....so off to the cemetery I go..).

It's a while away yet and plans might yet be changed but are there any others from Dorkland and environs heading down that way on the afternoon of Xmas day? If there are I wouldn't mind hooking up for the ride down.

Probably riding myThunderarse if it's ready by then but not breaking any speed records (a brisk, rather than fast, pace, except thru the Paraparas where my pace will be nanna-ish)

Going to be my first time too. Feel those nerves!
Look for #55 Ducati 900ss-MotoMart
Pirelli/repsol leathers

I've got my entry in for F3 (SV650 #33 - no sponsors

I know what you mean about nerves though. The lack of run-off on the street circuits is a bit of a concern.

Do you know how many races you need under your belt, prior to entering this event?

**k14** · 29th November 2004, 16:45

I think its 3 stamps in your licence.

I'll be there and I know of a few others heading up from the SI. Will have my t-shirt on. Think we should arrange a KBer meeting point.

**Sparky Bills** · 29th November 2004, 17:57

I will be racing in the B.E.A.R's class.

I think its 3 races, (with proof)
Entries have to be in by 3rd Dec!
Make sure the KBer meeting point is in the open and making the most noise!!

Im changing my comment from nerves to Absolutly Shitting my pants!
But in an exciting way.(if there is such a thing)
Should be a great day!

well Ill be there -with sparkly new sliders on.

uys um where is there no runoff??-Railway lines and ya run up the pit exit.
Rose gardens and ya just go straight ahead -the turn after and shit its a mile wide.--Over the bridge is scarey -kinda like the hill at pukie--no runoff there--Turn one and ya just run straight ahead--hmm --or maybee my memory is buggered.

yep it is apparently. the old man had a bin around there and got his helmet ran over one year.

**Sparky Bills** · 29th November 2004, 19:59

That fills me with soo much confidence!!

Hoping to get some Pen cameras on the bike.
That is if I can fit them safely!

Holy shit, so after forgetting to bring them to the bbq, then missing you at the airport he's actually remembered to mail them ?? (but then how am I to talk, they sat on my desk for 14 months with me thinking I should get rid of them everytime I saw them)

**ajturbo** · 29th November 2004, 21:46

:spudwave:

i'm going to try and make it! i will have the van, that will have heaps of room to put any gear in it if you don't want to walk around with it all day.....

**avgas** · 29th November 2004, 22:14

yeh me an the old man will be booting from my nanas in Whanga on boxing morning - so if anyone see's a red daytona and my ZXR going flat tack from Whaga to Wanganui, feel free to tag along, as this will give the cops more plates to read

Hey guys --those actually entering-dont forget the supplimentry rules for ROAD circuits---tether type kill switch and heat proof breather tubing.
Dont forget your civic (road) licence just in cace warren gets bloody minded.

The Man will hopefully be racing his first time at Wanganui, so we'll be going down in the van (white, with red Ducati tankpad stuck to the rear window) on Christmas Day afternoon. I have yet to decide if I'm going down on my bike or riding shotgun in the van. See what happens (read: how much food I eat Xmas Day & if my leathers can still be got into!

)

We are booked into the Avro Motel in Alma Road.
