    National Bucket GP (Auckland) 17 & 18th May 08

    This is the one national GP event of the year. 18th May April (17th practice etc) Mt Wellington Kart track. Come & have a look & laugh.
    From southern motorway northbound
    Take Ellerslie penrose offramp
    get onto Ellerslie Pamnure Highway
    Follow this road to BIG roundabout
    Turn left into Jellico road
    Take first left Morrin Road -over railway lines
    Take first right Into Tainui road
    Track entrance is aprox 50m on the right
    It is down a driveway

    Classes F4, F5, & sometimes scooters,
    They ran motards some years, not sure if this year.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    There is a lap time limit for the GP. It is usually around 34-36 sec, depends on how many riders do the qualifying time trials.

    If you dont meet the qualifying time then you can enter the Mt Wellington Cup. So everyone is guaranteed a race on the day.

    well it looks like I'm actually going to be in auckland briefly over this time, hopefully will have a new nephew to visit.
    So maybe try to call in and watch a bit on the saturday, flying out sunday lunch so prob wont be able to get there then. No cost to watch i guess?

    Saturday will be worth a visit with qualifying and everyone trying to psyche everyone else out. Plus - you will be able to check out how the Aucklanders do it and then return from whence you came with tales of awe.

    I wasn't aware Dave was yours and I'm not sure how his wife or Dangerous is going to handle your very generous offer, especially if Rashika takes you up on it.
