Nationals Round 3

Who binned it on Friday?

[k14]

If the racing is anything like last year's Puke Nat's it's worth more than $15 for the Sunday alone...there could have only been 3 Superbikes that day (so long as they were piloted by Bugden, Shirriffs and Jones) and that class alone would have been worth it to watch...nut case Jones getting sideways at 240+ entering Jennian while Shirriffs is sticking his nose around the outside and they're both up Bugden's arse...like Wharfy says, the $15 alternatives don't come close.

I think you forgot about mr stroud...

But yes. last weekend the supers only had 8 bikes but the top 4 were all dicing for positions lap after lap. Some of the best racing I've seen for a while. Was the same at teretonga. The 600's have more numbers (over 15 iirc) but racing wasn't as good because jones and smith were at the front and only one pass in the whole race. Sidecars last weekend were actually one of the best races, that and 125's. If only I was there, stupid broken bones

For fucks sake - How much does it cost to go to the movies for 90 minutes ??? !!!
$15 would get you 2 beers in a pub in Wellington on a Friday night (and not even a flash one)
How much does it cost to get into an NPC rugby game for a couple of hours entertainment ?

As Mr Nike would say "Just do it" !!!!

haha while i complain i still went. i just felt it was rude. the arguments not on the racing (it was pretty good,outside the dicey weathewr 2nd race time). its on whether its worth 15 bucks over club meets.

Which 125 binned??

[MIXONE]

Ah no, what caused it? Did you do your collar bone?

[nsrpaul]

i caused it, broke ribs, elbow and scaphoid

got big air tho, and was going abnormally fast(for me at least) before it happened

[k14]

Damn. I get my cast off and wires pulled out of arm tomorrow. I broke scaphoid too. Fast healing, I know what its like!

Yeah Jay Lawrence had a huge crash, rear end slide through pothole and highsided into the dirt. Bad place to crash too, no one around to help him, some guy jumped the fence to get to him, he was wearing a Conti T shirt so maybe pit crew or something, but no marshalls in sight anywhere. Red flagged the race, he eventually got up and walked in ambo. Reported broken collarbone I think.
