We won the Winternationals for the second year in a row. Also improved our track mile per hour record. This meeting was our Grand Finale' and we walked away with two gold Christmas Trees to make our tally five trophy's over two seasons - not bad for a bunch of kiwi's who hand build their own motors.

This meeting was to be the Championship decider! We were all hoping but we weren't talking about it, just in case we jinxed ourselves, but we knew that we would clinch the Championship as long as we got into the semifinals. Oh what a meeting!

Another hot, sunny meeting......the crew had the ice-blocks in the freezer ready for the high temperatures, and the thought was constantly on the bike tune-up for the air and atmosphere.

It was a hot sunny meeting, and the crowds were there to watch.....

The WINTERNATIONALS and the last meeting of the season AND it proved to be a WINNER! We claimed our second Christmas Tree trophy of the season and are the only Kiwi's to ever win one, let alone two. The Winternationals is the ultimate meeting.
Must apologise for the lack of racing photos here.....so busy racing didn't get to take any photos of action on the track. A kind fan has sent thru a few which is great, but if anyone else has any more can you email them to us. Thanks.

We launched the bike with the first new motor called "MOA". Took MOA to Taupo to test her out, the weather was cold and windy and not very kind to us, but eventually MOA came out of her wraps and showed us her talents.
