    Nice to see you caught the bug.... wish there where more cameras on bikes out there!

    First race meeting .... these guys better watch out, will post pic of your pre race "getting in the zone face" once I've pulled them off the camera

    Great stuff Leong and good for you for giving racing a go. Now watch that hole burn big in your pocket!!!

    Nice one Leong

    Really good effort out there. I knew you'd do really well after riding with you at that trackday a while back. You looked super smooth out there on the track. It'd be great if you kept at it. F1/F2 for ya at some stage in the near future, for sure! Just stop being so nice when it gets close in the corners

    Jay will come, with a little bit of help from you and I.


    I told you you're not slow Leong, was awesome to hear you were doing so well. You won a sash too, but weren't at prize giving to pick it up

    You did so well - when I saw you on the grid in position 2 I thought holy shit it's the guy's first time racing! Awesome result and well deserved. I think we will be seeing you at our next winter series!!

    well done on your 2nd place.... i put my money on you having the bug!
    you've got your sash coming in the post i cheered when they called your name at prize giving.
    what next? F2 at AMCC or PMCC? 18th November!
    What's next?? The trackday triple (MotoTT, Suzuki and KB), HRC trackday on 8 November.... but no Racedays at this stage... have a feeling my luck may run out if I keep using road fairings!!! Tempted to do AMCC though - cos Gah, Brian and Phil will be there in F2!

    Cool, a motorcycling "trophy"!! Shame we couldn't stay for the prizegiving - needed to do the family thing Sunday to build up credits for our trackday triple!!

    Good writeup and an awesome result for the day. Obviously all that tracktime at Taupo has paid off. Maybe if I can get my head around this Gixxer I might come close to keeping up.

    So where to now ? More trackdays or have you caught the bug?
