The ol' fat bastard finally does it!!!!!!!!!
It's official - I've finally won first place in a seasons racing - and I'm absolutley stoked
I managed to fluke turning up to the two race meetings that had the most races and little competition so I walked away with the silver at he end of the season.
The last meeting was a two day event just last weekend, and fortunatley for me, Saturdays racing was abandoned due to torential rain, and by this meeting there wasn't enough races for anyone to catch me in the points anyway - even if they won every race.
Why wasn't I there, well I was stuffing the FZR in a container to ship to Sydney (it's on the water now)

I still don't think the WSB guys will be too concerned about my sudden rise to the front - but in my little world it gives me the trifecta 3rd, 2nd, and now 1st.

My point exactley - no body bothered to turn up so it was mine for the taking.well done kiwi top stuff.in years to come no one will remember the individual races only that YOU won for that year...
Mind you with combining the classes there were another 30 bikes on the track at the same time, which always makes for an enjoyable day.
Are you coming up the the BSFOS next month?
If so, drop into the kiwi camp and say gidday, the bike should be easy to spot.

Fixing the FZ1 up, cleaning up garage and then I might even begin
