2009 Taupo Road Race Spectacular and BADD 3-hour endurance race

[Maido]

Looking great! Glad Midge Smart is young fast and fit, he is going to have to try hard with me as his pair rider doing slow laps, Ha Ha, poor midge.

I am the same with Hayden lol!
Really looking forward to doing this again, however not looking forward to the big drive up from Invers, then building a bike on xmas day
Hopefully santa gets my forwarding address

I rang Robbie Phillis last night - he's bringing Slighty up to spectate at the event also, so there will be another set of talented eyes perusing the endurance field!!

No pressure now guys eh...............

Are there any specific rules for endurance racing here? Refuel proceedures, fuel capacity, pit crew safety etc?

What happens when it's red flag?

Is there a MNZ rule book for this as well? I looked but didn't find any.

cheers

As one of the firemen last year, i witnessed some braindead refuelling that frequently nearly ended in tears.
I will be constructing a guideline in discussion with Scrivy shortly & will post it up here & also print off copies.
