I hear dodgy stories about Milky's part in it.... isnt he too white to be a professional burglar? (no no, not racism, he just glows at night...)

Try ringing tonight first.... Oh yeah and it is $170 race fee

Well im out.

Just rang club rooms, found out $170 tey said i had to make a decision right there and then and it had to be no after much adding of numbers in head.

Viffer needs tyres as it is, and was hoping to do fork oil etc, and $170 entry?
Simply dont have that kinda money right at this second.

Maybe next year.

I emailed AMCC and they have confirmed that the track will definitely be ready for the 5/6 March meeting. I hope so, as we've organised leave to come up!

Paeroa was excellent BTW, some great racing. Jason Easton was 125GP Nat Champ a few seasons ago, then went onto a bigger bike (can't remember if it was a Fireblade or an SP?) but didn't do too well, but is now smoking again on his Tigcraft.

awsome day, must have put on about a litre of sunscreen. I stayed in waihi the night before and as my bike is not on the road yet and someone else was driving i think i spent about 20hrs on the drink from about 7pm sat to about 10 on sunday with a few hours sleep/break in between. yay for the VB's. good on all Kbrs. and MR dont be so hard on yourself, you might not be competitive but i dont think you realise just how close you are and remember those guys are national road racers.

$$170 for entry!!! Whats the prize money on offer then?? And they are trying to revive road racing in NZ

Top speed was 235 recorded hearing towards the first righthander. This is down from last years 252. Useless facts you learn at the debrief in the pub

Hiya,

Yeah bloody Suzuki - it's the first one I've owned, all my other bikes have been Hondas. Cheap bastards could've spent a couple of bucks on a helmet holder. Bike's done 800km now, this weekend I'll go for a blast out to Waiuku, then on to the coast & back, which will get me enough k's for the 1000km service. I'll change to Motul 5100 for the next couple of thousand km, then on to 300v.

Picked up a good tip from Mike @ Mt Eden Motorcycles today (good man) - shoot down to Mico Wakefield & pick up some aluminium mesh, hole size 32x32 - cut it to make a radiator guard, cheap & effective.
cheers
