What about something like a 'kiwibiker cold kiwi' as such, organise the trackday for friday, giving people plenty of time to organise work off etc and then spend sat day and night acting like bikers in a paddock somewhere.

Well I'm not going to Phillip Island this year... Wouldn't want to ride but can probably wave a flag or drink beer or something. Bit far off yet to be certain...

Rally and camping etc all at the track would be awesome. Some could do track day, some do rides and the rest hang around being biker idiots!!

Hell yes I'm keen for that!

what is the cost(likely) for the trackday...

**Movistar** · 25th February 2009, 21:34

Yes, now this sounds like the idea of a genius.

A wee dawdle round the lake perhaps for those that don't want to do the track thing...really the options are endless...

Must keep an eye on this thread

trackdays Im trying to keep to the $100 per person rate.
Mind you HMMM
A THOUGHT MIGHT BE TO BOOK THE TRACK FOR THE WHOLE WEEKEND.
The track itself is only 5 minutes out of taupo itself.
They have facilities onsite.
Im thinking trackday stunt day ride day -all based at the track.
Im just brainstormin here

Keen depending on dates!

Okay -
Track days from 9-3 both days.
Open stunting sessions for the less skilled between 3-6 both days.
Tent town in the paddocks beside the track (October, brrrr), or the smart ones will rent pit garages (but the smartest ones will crash at KatMan's!)
They have good toilet facilities at the track.

You will need breath testing to be allowed to ride on the Sunday session.

There are a couple of good rides - back towards Vegas and around the lakes (all of them). I'm sure you could get someone to stick their hand up and take responsibility to organise this bit.

Frosty, good on you mate.

Well ya know there's a few of us that'll stick their hands up for two trackdays, but then there is the hungover and still pissed issues to contend with !
You know how that could end up !
A hard night and tracks dont mix !
A trackday, hard night, then perhaps paddock slow races, barrels, mini's, general stupidity next day might mix !
Just brainstorming !
