The Chch and Timaru rounds have been advertised on TV/Radio, in the papers etc for the last couple or three years. It has definitely increased spectator numbers.Originally Posted by sidecar bob
I seem to remember hearing that the North Island rounds aren't advertised, so maybe MCI pay for the advertising I've seen??

Each club paid $5000 to host the rounds of the champs. That money was what the prizemoney was for each round would have been. It went to getting a national better deal for advertising on Radio and TV. My personal opinion is that I don't like that , but thats how it worked . The radio advertising should be the best rating station in a particular area and that could be different networks . Telesport made the Advert for TV this year for free as I understand it, basically just changed the voice over. The Motorcycle Distributors/Castrol paid for the TV coverage. They MCI association paid less this year due to the recession as I understand it and it was sponsorship was also tied up with MX as well.
I know that the President had no input to the TV , the board made that decision due the presidents conflict of interest potentially. Don't believe ask for the board minutes.
All the rounds had advertisng on the Rock and TV , I saw at every round as I went to every round.
Gulp let the shit flinging begin again!

Just to add , just because this is the way it was done. From next year it is totally new game. Everything is up for renewal as I understand it. As there is currently no commitment from anyone for anything. The only thing I know about next year is that I know nothing.

Tonight I read a post here http://thomasr.org/blog/2011/04/fixi...-in-australia/ , same as the one Choppa posted earlier in this thread. I know this thread is supposed to be about the MNZ elections (made my decision by the way... it's in the mail), but the link got me to thinking in my Radler infused haze (yea, gay beer, so what), that in this day and age of economic troubles that are not likely to get better anytime soon, is it time to start looking at a Union of Australian and New Zealand motorcycle national bodies? Lots of hurdles to be overcome, like insurances and liabiliteis and transport and the like, but wouldn't it be great to have a true Tasman competition that attracted riders from around the world? Not just Road Racers (and fat, over-weight 'hobby' road racers like me at that), but motocross, enduro, Super-X, Super-Motard, Speedway... you name it, it's all there for the taking. Or is this the rose-tinted version of something that has been considered before? Is it too late to get a nom for MNZ Pres?

...nobody is bigger than the sport...nobodies drag the sport down...money is not a prerequisite for having more fun in the sport...when the dictates of nobodies with agendas, fucking around at the top of the food chain, instead of pouring more into where our champions are going to come from...at club level, then all this thread aspires to, is shit....we have a serious lack of interest in younger members wanting to become the officials in the sport...the 'training classes', that JT has had probably attest to this fact...how many Stewards do we have that cant remember 'the good old days'...how many COC's that control your meetings started riding in the late 80's...fuck all I bet...if it wasn't for the insurance factor of the , "umbrella", then you'd be of no use to anyone...this tenure of officialdom is not a problem...just a symptom of the problem...as soon as fucks pull their heads out of their arseholes and realized that they were really quite unimportant to the health of our sport and people who actually loved the sport took over, then we may start to turn out a professional, outlooking era,of world beaters...
...my unrequitted love for the sport, and I talk for a lot more, I bet, makes me want to just carry on, encourage kids in, bend over backwards to make sure they have as much track time as possible, back people like oyster and his mates who carry on with his progressive and systematic churning out of potential champions...and for what...to put up with shit from nobodies going nowhere...six fingered twats that have personal issues...pricks that have only one thing in mind...their fucking ego's and the chance to prove how big their 'concern ' for the sport is...love of this sport is about two wheels on the track...doesn't matter if its on the dirt oval, moto-x or the grandest sport on the planet, road racing... it aint about me or you or some cunt that thinks they know more or better...its about Motorcycle Racing in NZ...if you are not involved in the nurture of the sport, then you shouldn't be in the spot where nurturing the sport comes from...
