    that show looks like crap.
    no new american muscle
    no new Lexus (mmmmmmm LFA)
    no new mazda concepts (mmmmmmm Furai)
    no new BMW concepts
    no FISKER
    no new Lotus Evora

    it'd be the most worked fxr you've ever seen

    he's got the money to import a yzfr125 and maybe swap out the motor for a 250cc single from a WR (yamaha enduro bike)

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    I did go up to Silverdale and on the way back thought would check it out and boy was it a waste of time. Can't believe that people organize such crappy shows. Good thing I got in for free!

    As I was parking the bike, someone who had just left the show walked up to me and asked me if I wanted the ticket and I went - "Sweet!".

    u lucky bugger. i paid $12, and got to see a bunch of things that 've already seen way too much. was well upset, thinking they'd have more in the way of bikes, as they did call it a car and bike speedshow. i think i counted all the bikes total, on one hand (including teh sole pocket rocket)! was really saddened, but i did do one of those racing simulations for kicks... was a bit of fun, so no big upset there. haha. saw a few mini's doind burnouts and stuff... again, nothing all that special. but for the most, i think i'd prob have more fun following the drags around auck, looking at equally well done up cars, but have the glorious opportunity of watchin the rich little prick-racers scratch up and crash them... there's the fun ppl. that's the real reason to be there!!!)

    Appreciate any vehicle designed for speed/looks/mechanics but with the load of crap at the show, it was a disappointment.
