Thats hardly indicative though Mike,

We had people trying to enter as late as the Saturday at NZSBK 2014, Whatever there are listed as confirmed entries to date will mean little, I'm picking there'll be 10, But it's still a stretch at National level, I would hope that entries are up even further for all classes as more NI competitors realise how much more user freindly the new format is for the average racer.

No, Sorry mate, You'll need to talk to Greg about this years series, Ive had nothing to do with any of it, Or Ian Dawson, He seems to be up with the play, Probably won't appreciate the intrusion though as it's not really his role.

Not officially for the series , but I'm there taking up space , check out www.nzsuperbike.com also here is the online entry form for Round two. I'm not part of the organising side of things , I'm just helping where I can , Have no idea what the score is this year but yes I will be at all rounds , in between doing my Archiving work for MNZ.Also our NZMoto facebook page , and MNZ Facebook I manage that too.

Yip,

Saw that, Looking good, I predict 20 supers, Around the same Supersport and a handful more for each of the others, Pro Twins looking promising.

Yea Ian's still doing NZ Moto and Fastkiwi, But he seems to be up with the play and working in with Greg.

So there is 6 125s plus the IMD250?

Will be minus Tyler if the engine parts don't turn up, didn't need a blow up at Manfeild just before nats

[steveyb]

Looking like around 10 at the moment I think.

Got a NF4 Engine here in my shifter kart if you get desperate, Probably not a lot of point with the 1st round being the double header though, Still, It'd get you on the grid.

[steveyb]

There is a perfectly good RS125 sitting in Napier doing nothing (you know where).
You could ask?

Yup, that Blow Up sucked the big one..... One of the Cruel things about Motorsport....

[mr bucketracer]

who would moan if i built 2 zxr250 powered gp bikes for the class? i look at it as this is nz , we are diffient ( power wise 40 kind of hp and should last years )would be like a 1960s gp bike of today

[mr bucketracer]

i think forget about putting 600 and 1000 bikes on tv and put buckets ,125 , 250 bike in its place , dads with there sons sitting at home will more likey get there kides and maybe them selfs into the sport , than looking at a overpriced 100+hp sport , face it , its not working whats happing at the moment
