Well put Skip! Good luck to all and we will see you at Manfield. I'll put money on Suzuki wins for both superbike and the 600s.

I'm going out to help as a flag marshall for the buckets, I can't race as haven't raced enough and don't have a full racing license yet. So might as well help out instead and watch and learn.

And good on you for doing so because without helpers like yourself this sport couldn't go on for those Riders out their wanting to Race.
Its also a great position to be in especially seeing that you are wanting to learn, and learn you will.
Enjoy.

Weather is looking absolute crap for the weekend so will learn how to stay on 2 wheels in the wet. Such a shame to start the Nationals this way. Anyhoo no use complaining, at least the lawn will like it.

Just to add a bit of excitment. Will be great to watch. I think I'm going to a busy flag marshall.

Yeah, that should make the sidecars tight as, ya should be able to throw a blanket over all of them . . . well, on the start line anyway.

Can someone tell me what time the racing starts...? Looked at the NZSBK website and most other racing websites - they all tell you what day but no details about start times or proposed timetable of the races!!
