Coppins won the Lites class on a YZF250 and Luke Burkhart won the 250 class on his Suzuki. |

did you go any good there? they dont run that round at taupiri anymore, i did a fmx demo the last year they ran it so I guess they got the timaru round to finaly replace it.
Would be great to have some spare acres to build a track on- with the amount of SX tracks around you almost think you could have your own national round if you made the track really good and in a readily accessible place. |

1/9/2007 6:50 AM I crashed there and didnt make the main. They watered the track between the woops and the little triple and i slip coming off the woops and thought i could still make the triple on my CR125!
Tokoroa was like a BMX track on steroids. |
