    You know your gonna do alright on the day man (so long as ya sus that spring) Reacon that be costin ya a second or two
    Tis me that is pulling out all stops to see if i cant keep up to the flying sixa
    Shame ya can't get time off for this one mate, should be a couple or thirty fast guys out there to follow round, pick brains and generally wear ourselves out chasing !
    Shame ya not closer, i'd say come to manfield on the 21st and do some cheering as i have a crack at some bears !

    Sticking with the 1050, figured i was losing a bit with having to fight the bike to stay on ! Trying some stomp grip and using this trackday to realine the body so i'm gettin off a bit more like i do with the 955 !
    Must get my entry in too !
    And Frosty's right man for the cost of a spring ! Shit you nailed that tyre in one track day 2nd hand, but you sure finished it ! What your gonna gain in cranking the preload will take up all the static you had bugger all of anyway, so ya might end up with a waggily tail ! haha woof woof
    Prolly wouldn't hurt gettin in touch with shaun Harris and pay him a couple of bucks to sort it, he might have the right spring rate there !

    Hi Frosty, you can add me as well.
    I have put the $150 into your account today.
    You may need to show me the racing lines as I find turn 1 and the corner onto the backstraight hard to get right.
    I look foward to setting up the bike for the Vic Series round 1

    Thanks Frosty,
    I always thought TOTAL LOSS refered to the rider not the removal of the alternator

    After a conversation with one worried punter. This IS going ahead no question.
    And the format will be decided by those that attend. If most wanna use T1 all day that we will do

    No not Minefeild.. But hey why not the land alongside Auckland airport.
    I always though that would make a fantastic place for a track.

    Spose you'd never have to worry about the noise factor haha but there is always the chance of someone getting the two strips confused, in his glider !

    There was talk of someone building a mega drag/race complex just out of foxton there for a while, i wonder what happened to them !

    (gathers up 6 months worth of lotto tickets and heads off to check them)
