    Take the lights out and race it yourself, our cousin had one down south and did really well.

    I'd rather go pre '89 senior at the moment, but I could be keen if nothing else pans out.

    Is that because you'd rather crash at higher speeds?

    Give it heaps Drew baby.Pre 89 senior needs you. As an aside, Jarrod W and I were up at Kaitoke today getting some bucket practice in so we can beat Jimmy the Fairy next Sunday. You should give buckets a thrash too broo.

    Jay suggested that a couple weeks ago funnily enough, but one of my crashes could rip an entire cylinder right of.

    Only in your dreams, a head on collision on my 75/7 couldn't even do that

    If I had an FZR600 motor I'd jump at it.

    Cheers bro, I've only had a go on two buckets though. They both fell over while I was trying to get my knee down on them. Might give that a miss methinks.

    Are you aware that the posties peeps are changing the classes from senior and junior to the formula equivalents of the day? F1, F2, and F3 but Pre 89 rules. The rumour I heard was that this would rule the 450cc fours out of Pre 89 F3. I don't actually know if this is true but heard it from a PCRA technical guy.

    That'd be cool. The FZR400/600 would be the best F2 bike if it still only had to be period rather than a production bike. My understanding was that it was done quite a bit back in the day.

    Fucks sake Banks, I think that lack of hair has resulted in a frozen brain during the winter. On what planet do you and Duke Nukim actually think you'll finish ahead of me? And practicing? You do know I've never even ridden a bucket don't you?

    You sill old poofters are going to be wondering what the hell you signed up for come Sunday

    If my brain was frozen I'd be as fast as you mate. At the moment Jandle has a perfect 100% record on my bike at the toke. One session One crash. Sharpen up those excuses Jimmy.
    We even have a secret weapon if it rains.
