checkout silverbullets website www.silverbullet.co.nz. they have got race results up already. also if you dig around in there theres a press release mentioning that it will be televised on shell helix motorsport on one at a later date. better than nothing.

I won't do a race report here myself, since fully describing all of what i saw over the three days would turn into a novel, so just a summary / highlight package i reckon...

First of all, huge raps to all of the riders for turning up and racing with such a high level of skill in what i'd describe as "challenging conditions". Friday was good (very warm), saturday was average with a string blustery nor easter, and sunday was - well, the pits, with strong southerlies and on again off again rain. Made everything really interesting tho especially with tyre choices!

Also like to thank all of the riders i approached for a qik chat and a tee shirt signing session - they were all really friendly (esp Bernard , Stroud, Rees amd shirrifs). Can't believe how laid back everybody was!

Highlights:
1) Nico's mono the length of the front straight on Friday was impressive - was waiting for a gust to get him tho!
2) Being able to watch that many quality riders performing over 3 days
3) Meeting a couple of KB'ers namely Lynda Blair (and Hamish), CSL, Mad Duck, Nico and a few Chch locals
4) Getting my T-shirt signed by Rees, Bernard, Harris, Stroud, Shirriffs and anybody else i could fid that could still hold a pen (even kickaha...)

Lowlights:
1) The weather on Sunday
2) Watching TVNZ switch the cameras off for everything but superbikes and 600's

If you get a chance to see these guys at a local track, just do it... awesome racing! I'm hoping to make it up to the Paeroa Street race... that should be a cracker... oh yeah. i've got 50+ piccies and one video (ask Lynda) will attempt to edit them and post to the gallery soon...
