Last one was an 8 lapper and a 12 lapper from memory, but they ran over time, so hopefully they dont cut it down.

Yup, what he said.

Ill need to find a bit more fuel capacity for the vfr though I reckon, as my little tank probably wont do it (5.5-6L). Not for the 12 lapper anyway.

You could just get it serviced so that it isn't spitting so much fuel out the exhaust

Dont you worry about my bike. My 'finely tuned race machine' just needs more air, to turn that fuel dripping out the exhaust into afterburners.

We will be using track 1 (the full track). There will be a practice sesion (which will sort out grid positions) followed by 2 races per class.
The last race for each class will be their GP race, this will be a longer race.
The number of laps will be sorted when we know the number of bikes in each class, as some classes maybe join together if the number of bikes is too low.

Please note: this meeting is for national titles so please have your bikes set up as per the NZPCRA rules, these are on their website. http://www.nzpostclassics.org.nz/
