So what's the latest ETR (Estimated Time of Racing) on the full track? I see the National's in late March 2010 are are still only using the 2.8km circuit.

I'll be trying out Hamptons this Wed afternoon on one of the new track prepared Suzuki GSX-R600s from the California Superbike School.

Radio Hauraki is going to give me a call live from the track as they're keen to know what its like to ride so I will post the time to listen in if your interested.

That's Cool.
Me and Surfchick will be making a proper film of the event too.

And by the way team:

Still space in all groups. (Slow, med, med/fast, fast)

You must be licensed to ride the bike you are on with either a road or a race license.

What if you have a track bike that's 250+ on your restricted. I can read, I'm just asking.

On a restricted license you are only allowed to ride a 250 or smaller.
You can ride larger than a 250 if you have a MNZ race license (with appropriate race history) that allows you to ride the larger capacity bike.

Simply put, you must be licensed for the bike that you are riding and race licenses are acceptable.

An example of this is that we have a 13 and 14 year old that will be riding but they are on a MNZ race license appropriate to the bike.

I hope that this clears things up for you.
