    Its funny how people who were not there or not involved find themself in a position to comment on this situation (I was there and I put my name to the letter)....... more probally, to troll for a reaction than to be proactive.

    I think the concerns the riders brought up after the '07 meeting have been addressed and plenty of water has gone under a bridge that will need some rebuilding and I for one will be working with the organisers of the Nelson Street Race to get good numbers there for 2010.

    If anybody wants to discuss what happened, I was there, I was involved. I'm more than happy to fill you in (but most of it has been dragged out here many times). PM me, discussing it here does nothing for the running of this Meeting.


    Its harder to lose weight than gain horsepower.

    I must say that the club you represent seems to be getting bigger, faster and flasher and there seems to be a lot of fun going on,and you all seem to be represented at just about every meeting that goes on there.

    Between the Street Stock class and the bucket class you all seem to do a great job at getting youngsters into the sport.

    I saw an ambulance tear across the track in the path of some very fast bikes down the straight at one meeting not too far back. All clubs/event organisers have a bad to terrible day at some point in their history and people do get hurt or worse.Nobody wants this but it does always say on the ticket "Motorsport Can Be Dangerous.Enter at your own risk" or similiar

    I raced for some years and have been 'there'.Seen a couple of unnecessary and tragic endings to people Ive known well, on a race track. Sad ,but part of our game wether its racing for fun or racing at the top end.

    Maybe you think that jumping up and down and slagging people/clubs may help make the sport safer? I dont!

    This thread is both a good and a bad thing at the same time. There has been some personal digs and such.
    But this motor racing sport is about passion, and without it you aint got nothing, personal views are diverse, and that is not a bad thing either. Getting it all right for the day on the track or street must be a night mare, trying to cater for everyones desires, and to make it intersting for the spectator.

    Safety is a huge issue, and no doubt people know that fully. Hell if somone falls over in the workplace and seriously hurts or mames themselves, persons responsible along with the company will find them selves in deep expensive shit/and or time in jail.

    What we do on bikes and all the supporrt people and all the people around and behind the scenes make it what it is. When it goes bad, no doubt serious investgations go on to find cause etc (not sure if there are penalitys for the guilty)

    I see some of this disscussion highlights things have not been great in the past, obviously they are inproving with every year, and there appears to be a fair amount of interest in getting buckets on the scene and that is fab ( I would love to race it)
    With out people highlighting issues and being the sqeeky wheel nothing would ever be looked into and changes made.

    As it goes I have been stoked with my first year in the chch bucket racing scene, dangerous and others on the track have made the year a fecking enjoyable. A shame to see D step down from the hot seat. Certainly putting some wood on the fire and highlighting issues, "someones gotta sqeak some"
    Everytime I seen dangerous he's been over to see how things going etc, and then off to see others, making sure stuff is on track.


    Put my name down for 09, Buckets and PC's if they in, cause hot dang I love the Greymouth street thang, and I am down for more of that!!!!! And Nelson is a gret place in the Summer

    Ta man, but some like the trouble maker MYgsxf and Vtwin never get to see that side of me and the effort I put into our own meetings... they just know the on line 'dangerous' not the DD.
    i was finding I was not enjoying my racing like I should cos I was helping others out... well fark it when I get back to the track it will... WILL, be about me me meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    So, you've just stated yourself that D spoke to Darren in Oct 07! The issues D mentioned.. again.. were dealt with for last years races. Why then is D dragging the SAME issues up for the 09 races??

    Then the pressies actions need to be more appropriate... as mentioned by others.

    Never said it didn't. I was there remember! I saw the shocking car driving, & lots of motards in races & lack of buckets etc. The issues were dealt with for last years races! & remember there is limited time for the event. They did what they needed to at the time. They can't please everybody, ALL the time.

    Sorry if I am mistaken G.. but that's not what your's & D's posts in last years thread say.

    Not worried bout the red rep chick. I think it's funny! & he who points the finger the worst needs to take a long hard look in the mirror..

    As mentioned by others, maybe they didn't reply to your letter, coz you are so difficult to deal with D

    I've known you for many years D. I am aware of what you may do. However, I am also very aware of the trouble you cause with your difficult & often very rude behaviour!

    & jus so you know.. I got several green reps & pm's from people over last year's thread.. stating it was good to have my voice of reason, talking into your relentless 'downing' of the event!

    & as for me being a troublemaker... takes one to know one!!

    Maybe see you at next years races then...??

    and this whole post is just yet more shit-stirring... does it ever end from you MyGSXF??? I honestly cant be fucked correcting you AGAIN cos as usual you will just throw yet more red herrings into the works. YOU were there are a SPECTATOR, not a RACER... please remember that.
    Who gives a toss about rep, sheesh woman, grow up! I've known you for a fuck sight longer than D and I hate to say it but you have not improved with age.

    People is glass houses shouldn't throw stones, MyGSXf. Just as well most people DONT know the things we do about you huh? that might make a few squirm.
    Enough on this from me... I'M NOT into trying to wreak people lives.

    Nothing personal at all with my posts.Ive seen how the buckets have gone from , well just being buckets to a really big and successful class, and I have mentioned how good an entry level class,for junior or new racers to the sport it has become. If you had even a small part to play in that,and I have noticed you running around keeping in touch with your fellow bucketeers doing what good club leaders do, you deserve more than a pat on the back.

    We all do what we feel we should do. From what I read , you are stepping down from the ' presidents/spokesman position,due to a new addition to the planet arriving. Hope all goes well for you both,and that (no disrespect) he/she isnt a' ginga'.Im sure we have enough already

    My posts may just have to wait till another,"D" type hits the ether
