I have at NZSBK Hampton Downs (2010 or 11?) At Manfeild 2011 NZSBK ? ) with no positive results and Paeroa again! (when a top rider was caught with dope in his system and lost his licence and ride I think). No room for drugs or booze in the systems of racers I'm all for Zero level , If the adrealine that racing gives you isn't a big enough buzz then get off the track .

You missed one,Ruapuna NZSBK round 2013,No positive results recorded then either.

Been quite a few before that too, suppose in a back-handed way its a positive thing that we should have to reel them off on here ........ IF there'd been positive tests, it would be all over this site

Suicide crash?????? Who mentioned that anywhere.

That was before the new rule came in and he only required 3 entries in his logbook in total.

Too true,

Funny how when I brought up the idea of us doing our own testing last year,I was told it would breach the agreement we had with drugfree sport NZ,I guess this will be another good idea the board came up with then???? Just like the beath analyser I suggested we get.

Sorry mate, should have warned you I guess - your request obviously came along after mine ( pretty sure I CC'd you a copy of the outside Contractors quote at the time - if not, still got it on file ), and there was an answer ready for you ! If we all shake enough trees, all sorts of sh1t will no doubt fall out.

The IMPORTANT thing is that it is all go now, the existing one with the new MNZ system in action as well will sort out any idiots who put everyone elses lives at needless risk

You might well be Sir - I started investigating breathalysers for the 1983 nationals ?

EDIT: To be fair, back then, I was possibly part of the problem !!!!!!!!!!!

Only users lose drugs.

Haha,

Yip I'm sure your in a better postion to access that sort of info,But who at MNZ did you talk to about it,Nothing came through my inbox from you.

[scrivy]

When I started racing in '87, I was amazed by the amount of shit floating around back then. Cocaine was a favourite of a few.... I stuck to beer.

Yip,

Certainly was a problem alot earlier than most think,I wasn't suggesting that I was the instigator of drug testing,Just relaying the reason I was given for us not doing it ourselves.

Yep plenty of it back then , Coke , Smack , Pills , and booze you name it . Living in Christchurch then there was plenty on offer and easy to get , looking back it was crazy , I remember going to Australia in the late 1990's and at a race at Oran Park wondering why some riders where sucking on cough/flu lollies when they didn't have colds or anything , you can't buy that brand now without a prescription and signing for it.

What about these new fangled legal highs can they be traced? That shit should be completely banned , I have seen a work mate who has been fucked up severely because of that crap.
