wasn't me!
ummmm......forgive me if I sound harsh...but honestly, just because their were a few probs at the last 'sprints' I dont think people should be so negative.
Cliffhanger organizers have run many of these events and these have run smoothly with only the odd minor expected hiccups. I think they do a great job in providing us with an event of this caliber. And many will concur that they have had LOADS of fun blasting their bikes at the Sprints!
This crew put a lot of effort into running such events. Sport is sport! so at the end of the day it can only be expected for occasional glitches to happen. As with any large organized event.
If people dont support these runs they will all eventually die off. And then you will have something to complain about.
Those people complaining on this forum should try to understand that not all in life can run as it should. If you helped on the day then GREAT EFFORT I say! If you competed and were disapointed? then just accept that things can go wrong and move on!

My only complaint about the Cliffhanger Sprints is that I moved 600km away.
I agree with Flame, it's a non-profit organisation that put on a fun day for any motorcyclists that turn up on the day. If you think there's no value in it for your dollar then don't enter. I found carrying a Camelback helped deal with the time spent cooking between runs, Mmmm warm water!.
It's pretty good value for money really when you think Mr Plod charges $120 for doing just 119km/hr. That's another story...

A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"
Bowls can wait !

Could do it if 1 rider did both runs straight away in the flying !
Not 100 % sure how this one will be run, if everyone does one direction it makes it hard to get back to ya second bike !

Do the flying in one direction, then be first to do a standing on the return trip, then take the next right off Dalefield Road, then right, then right again and your back in the pits and can swap bikes to head back to the top for a flying. In theory anyway lol

Ahh, Right so that was you on the 900?well i have entered on my ducati

Nice bike and good work!
Can't wait to see it with a turbo on!
I was one of the guys at the timing desk.
Anyway, the day seemed to run much better than the last few, the worst we had to deal with at the timing desk were a few problems caused by a ham-fisted operator (me) but any "issues" were easy enough to work around.
Great day out and it was awesome to watch you guys, there were some impressive performances today but I will let you all tell your own stories about them.

It was a very well run day and it only got better as the day wore on, and big thanks to the organisers and marshals.
Back to the drawing board to try and get more speed out of my little screamer.
None of my photos are worth posting. Just blurry bikes
While you sit there liking things just cos' everyone else does, I'll be standing up here keeping it real.
