Original post:

OK - a first ever (in the world).

We are busy with negotiations with the owners of Zwarkops Race Track to book the venue for a WD race day.  Idea is to do some warm-ups in the morning then between 11 and 1pm have some serious races in the following classes to settle some scores:

1. Smaller than 700cc - single
2. Smaller than 700cc - twins
3. BMW - litre
4. KTM - litre
5. Other - lire

Then
6. Smaller than 700cc - open
7. Litre class open - based on 3/4/5 qualifying

Aim is to determine which d/s bike is the fastest on tar...

Afterwards beer, band and spit at the venue.  Gates (for exit) close at 6pm - after that you sleep over.  Arranged with ZKs to pitch tents and sleep over - so big party and piss-up after the race. Sun morning - breakfast at venue.

Idea is to get all our sponsors involved - help with tyres and advertise and and and....

Idea is to get our friends from Woema and BikeSA (and rest of media) involved.  Big prices for race winners.

Basic rules - must be a WD to race (idea is its a race between normal d/s okes), race with what you ride, no instructors and okes that do this at a higher level than Joe Soap.  

Extremely difficult to give a price indication at the moment - based on 200 riders/racers - I think it would be around R400 for the day - this includes:

1. race fees
2. Band
3. sleep over
4. spit or similar dinner

excludes
1. dop at the bar
2. lunch and snacks
3. next morning breakfast

We shall have a spectators fee too, and discount the price if you pay well in advance.  More expensive closer to the day and on the day.

Veldbrand will be the event co-ordinator and Cocky volunteered to run the Racing side of things...

What do you okes think - and can we start a list of racers?
