Things to remember: the traditional MM weekend is Labour weekend which is the weekend that the Port Street Sprint is run on and there is an Autocross at Levin as well.

I think we should make it a rule right now, that if you don't attend all 3 days, you don't attend at all :)

Make a grass and tarmac auto-x. More points if you do both. A road going car should be able to handle a bit of grass right :wink:

Thats not manners... I'll be racing at Port Road but would like to come to other events and support the MM. hrmm odd concept, what is your reason behind that?

Not the residents... There was one truck driver who didn't read the memo he was given and got a bit upset but was put straight when he spoke to his boss. If there was anyone else that was upset it was never told to any of the officials.

It may have been the previous event... but it's not important, was more making a passing comment than a statement :) Back to the topic on hand which is for the Mega-meet!

Tarmac makes it possible for lowered cars, grass is much kinder on cars.

I like grass.

Statement just made to annoy people, but did have an underlying point. Last year we had about 8 people at paintball, which was so bloody pathetic. Everyone only turned up for the Trackday and or the cruise. Didn't participate in all activities like they should (that's just my 5 cents... 10 cents...)

agreed it was sad that heaps of people ternd up JUST fot track day. i would have been there for track day but my pasanger was working so had to miss paint ball.

so all or nothing would be a bit harsh, but would be nice if ppl were there for most of it atleast and not just events
