Kiwibiker DragWars Night - 4th Feb, Meremere

[Drunken Monkey]

If i chuck a light in my race bike, and show them my MNZ race licence, will they let me race it???

They are likely to, but don't quote me, I'm not the scrutineer.

[FzerozeroT]

They let learners in, I did it on the KR150 with my learners licence, and i got to race against a car for one run, my best was a 15.3 @ 132kph, that includes a 0.7 reaction time. I'll be there to watch for sure!

TS, it's at the scrutineers discretion but general rule is it has to have a warrant and rego.

[StoneChucker]

However embarrasing it is, I'm not very good at the moment when up against bikes. My clutch control on the beast is not as good as it should be. And since I can't? go up against tricked out boy racer cars, I may not come all the way up

[loosebruce]

Maybe we can start a new class Kiwiwalkers wars. Me feet still work, reckon i'm good for a busa bashing 8 sec, have just brought some new shoes too, will scrub em in before the drags. It's a traction thing.

[Sycophant]

I'd be useless. I am completely hopeless a quick starts of the mark... I can still beat cars away from the lights normally, but I am certainly never at risk of popping the front wheel up (not that I would be anyway). I'm too chickenshit to get the revs up and just drop the clutch, it's always a slow release for me

[Wonko]

Will be there. I'll show those guy's on their 2k5 1000cc bikes what a real man can do.

Is sub 11s a resonable expectation for a 20 year old 600cc?

[RiderInBlack]

Must see if "Roxanne" and I can get there Her specs suggest that she can do a near 11s 1/4. Whether her rider can is another thing. Would be fun trying to find out.

[FROSTY:Me]

that said -any suggestions as to how to contact the organisers?
I really wanna know re race bikes etc -

Well I've been getting plenty of walking practice in over the last 4 weeks so I'll be some serious competition for you!!!

Well in that case I will be there definately. Looks like it will be a good night, as long as the weather plays its part.

[DEATH_INC.]

I'll try to be there(on the gixx)
They usta let you run on a learners ect(i've only had my full a year or so....)on full size bikes
A few guys have brought racers down,but they only ever let you run 'till dark and sometimes make you run on your own(as a comp vehicle)
And they'll let you run against the cars in practice and in the grudge rounds(but be prepared to get your butt kicked!)

[avgas]

Im in, you guys will all kick my arse.....but its all good
As for the walking race....im in on that too - but i have to say i hobble at least 5K a day, and im gonna dance like hippo and sting like a flea........

[Al]

Will be there as a spectator..... GS definately NOT built for drag racing!
Will support all KB riders

[StoneChucker]

Do you mean get your ass kicked by other bikes? If I came,I'd plan to lol. But if you meant beaten by cars, I'd seriously doubt many cars could beat decent sports bikes, ridden well.???
