Well that was certainly worth taking the prize money away

[Burrt Badger]

There will be further packages coming up with all the other classes in them. Watch and wait guys

Do the series sponsors put up the money for the extra coverage of the 1000/600 classes or do the rest of the classes get shafted for it?

As we all know the ones being shown now are coverage for the 600/1000 classes, and as burrt badger said above there will also be coverage of the other classes in a separate showing coming up.
This information was included in a release MNZ sent out ages ago, before the nationals. (please don't ask me to quote from it cos it was probably put in the bin ages ago!).

Wow ! Look mum, I'm on TV, just like Rossi !

Did I hear right , you guys had to give up prize money to get that ? You'd have to be real keen to take up road racing today. Remember when Wanganui was live on Boxing day , and if you were any good you could make a quid ? Gaz.

It used to be the best way to recover from Xmas Day.Watch the bikes and have a quiet couple.Then Julie ??? took over as head of sports programming on TV1 and decided it wasn't popular enough.WTF?

And they show two races for each of those classes as compared to normally one for each other class, so where is the extra money for the extra coverage of the 600/1000 class from?

I don't believe there is any of this "extra money". One would assume that by splitting up the coverage into 600/1000 and 125/f3/sidecars etc that you will see both 600/1000 races from one weekend in one show and all three races from the 125/f3/side cars in the other show that hasn't been screened yet. This is not fact, I don't know any more than the next guy it is just how I see it playing out.

Whats the big deal with prize money anyways, even when we got it, it wasn't as if it was a massive amount and most people ended up chucking it down their neck at the prize giving.
