FEBRUARY <strong>2009</strong> PRESIDENT’S REPORT.<br />
There has definitely been lots of action<br />
since my last President’s Report, with<br />
most of you that are actively involved<br />
will know about anyway. Lots of racing<br />
both here and at Phillip Island for<br />
those that were able to make the<br />
trip.<br />
A great big special “congratualations”<br />
to Craig smith for his achievement<br />
of taking away the prize for best<br />
international rider.<br />
The committee’s first job after<br />
our annual “Grand Prix” is<br />
over is to first get dates and<br />
a venue sorted out for the<br />
next one, and then do a<br />
review of the one you<br />
have just had to see<br />
what you can improve<br />
on for next time.<br />
As this was the first<br />
race meeting we had<br />
run entirely under our<br />
own banner, we messed up in a few<br />
areas that we can definitely improve on.<br />
On that matter of improvements, I pass<br />
my personal apologies on to those people<br />
and businesses that were disappointed<br />
with the exposure they received at the 9 th<br />
of November, <strong>2009</strong> Grand Prix. I agree<br />
we did not do a very good job. Some of<br />
the reason behind this was the radios we<br />
hired along with the “Pacific Motorcycle<br />
Personel” slowly one by one went down<br />
as the batteries all went flat, so there was<br />
no round track information, and then the<br />
Public Address System as hired with the<br />
circuit failed, so communication to the<br />
public was<br />
cut off. Then, unfortunately I forgot to<br />
mention the sponsors at prize giving and<br />
made a couple of other mistakes as well.<br />
Sorry guy”s!!!!<br />
All in all though, it would seem those<br />
who competed had a great day, and at the<br />
end of the day, that’s what it’s all about.<br />
The next topic was our great committee and<br />
promotions man, Tony Haimes having his horrible<br />
accident at Pukekohe and his seemingly miraculous<br />
recovery after one hell of a rough road. Tony sent me<br />
an email begging for information to do the magazine<br />
with which is a great indication of a come back. Good<br />
on you Tony.<br />
Wanganui had a great turnout of <strong>Post</strong> <strong>Classic</strong> entries<br />
across the board. It would definitely have been thin<br />
fields if the classes had not been mixed, but it looked<br />
good. Terry Fitzgerald is certainly handing out some<br />
lessons with his pre-89 very well sorted Ducati. Great<br />
to see.<br />
Somewhere in this issue is Craig Smith’s report on<br />
Phillip Island so I see little point in repeating it, with<br />
few numbers and bike problems it sounds like the<br />
team were a bit on the back foot this time. I am sure<br />
they still all had a great time.<br />
Of course there is still plenty of racing around the<br />
country before the end of the season and it has been<br />
great to see that our grids aren’t too bad considering<br />
the current economic climate, and don’t forget Paeroa<br />
and the AMCC Pukekohe TT in March, which are<br />
always absolute blinders.<br />
The really great news is that of “Hampton Downs.”<br />
It is still going ahead in leaps and bounds and the<br />
prospective first test date is the 1 st of June, <strong>2009</strong>.<br />
In conversation with Chris Watson, (the head director<br />
of operations at Hampton Downs) he also confirmed<br />
we are in the hat for a date along with all other clubs<br />
and organizations. More information is going to be<br />
made available after the 1 st of June when initial<br />
testing proves the new track surface to be suitable<br />
to race on.<br />
The date for our <strong>2009</strong> AGM is still to be set. This<br />
should be some time in May/June and I urge you to<br />
think about who is replacing me as President as I am<br />
standing down at the end of this term. I am moving<br />
on to new challenges in life and after five years as<br />
President and eight years on the committee I feel it<br />
is time for some new blood to help the club move<br />
forward.<br />
Cheers, Lindsay Pinker.<br />

Phillip Island <strong>2009</strong><br />
By Craig Smith<br />
I flew in to Melbourne on Monday, got the rental car<br />
and drove straight to the track. I had booked a ride day<br />
bike and was keen to get some laps in. In the end I got<br />
3 afternoon sessions of 20 minutes on an 08 Suzuki<br />
GSXR 600. What a cool little machine!! I loved it. It<br />
went everywhere I wanted it to. Stopped like you would<br />
not believe, and revved to about 30,000rpm. Put it<br />
this way, I never red lined it!! They would not put me<br />
out in the fast group (just as well as they were reeling<br />
off 1’40” flat lap times…) but being in the “medium<br />
fast” group meant I could carve up some GSXR 1000s,<br />
R1s and the like. They would get me on the straight,<br />
but by surprisingly little, and I could pass them on<br />
the corners. Excellent fun, but it ruined me for when I<br />
had to get back on the old girl. The first time I hit the<br />
brakes on the GS going into Honda it was: “Is that all<br />
you’ve got”<br />
Thursday practice was tough. There was about a 35<br />
knot wind coming straight down the main straight which<br />
meant you went way too fast into T1, and it was really<br />
hard to initiate turning both in T1 and T3, the fast left<br />
hander. I totally destroyed the front tyre as the wind<br />
just pushed it across the track. I was pushing the front<br />
everywhere, and the fastest time I got was a 1’54”...<br />
Race meeting practice on Friday with the GS 1000<br />
started badly.<br />
The 150hp Armageddon engine developed a rattle that<br />
would not go away, so I pulled it out of the bike and put<br />
the 130hp spare “pussy engine” in. I got an average<br />
qualifying position, and then before I could improve on<br />
it, the engine developed a misfire above 7500rpm. Took<br />
a bit of tracking down but it turned out to be the Dyna<br />
2000 ignition module. Replaced that and got a 4 th in<br />
the Aussie P5 races, then a 12 th in the first international<br />
challenge, then an 8 th in the second international<br />
challenge (40 starters). First Non Aussie home and a<br />
PB lap of 1’47”. Gardner did a 1’43…. And won both<br />
races, but I kept him in sight for pretty much he whole<br />
race. I was rapt. I beat all the Poms and all the Kiwis,<br />
and was in 7 th for a while, but ran wide at Honda and<br />
let the bastard back in… On cloud 9 here!!<br />
Vince blew the Honda up again, as soon as he started<br />
going for it. Broken Cam chain again. He has borrowed a<br />
GSX 1100 from an Aussie and is already getting 1’49s.<br />
Pretty damn good. Shame he’s not on the Honda!<br />
Well I finished my racing career on a high. Got 8 th overall<br />
out of 40 qualified bikes. Top international finisher, so<br />
beat all the Kiwis and all the Poms, including multiple<br />
TT winner Stan Woods.. I was lucky though. My engine<br />
blew to bits on lap 6 of the last race and I coasted over<br />
the finish line with it making nasty grinding noises,<br />
thinking the game was up, but the race was red flagged<br />
later that lap with all results put back to lap 6. Even<br />
though I coasted over the line, I got 15 th (was in 8 th )<br />
and that was enough to give me top international rider.<br />
Wayne Gardner won it, and Wally Campbell (Aussie<br />
legend) set a new lap record of 1’41”. Makes my PB<br />
of 1’47 look lame!<br />
With 100% hindsight, if I had managed a decent grid<br />
position (quite possible if the Dyna had not packed<br />
up) then I think I could have held onto the front bunch<br />
and got into the low 1’46 maybe 1’45, especially if I<br />
had he Armageddon Engine. The bike was very well<br />
behaved, and I was getting used to slowly sliding the<br />
back in Siberia and T11, T12. It certainly went through<br />
the rear tyres though. I did 3 rears and 2 fronts over<br />
the weekend…<br />
When the bike gets home, I will be re-building and<br />
selling. Quite a lot of interest… Yes, for those of you<br />
who don’t know, I am bowing out of <strong>Post</strong> <strong>Classic</strong> racing.<br />
The bike is for sale with the Armageddon engine (will<br />
be re-built, new pistons and rings) for <strong>NZ</strong>$20K with<br />
all spares, and the 130hp Pussy engine will be sold,<br />
re-built for $10K complete with some spares. I need<br />
to spend more time with the kids and cannot afford to<br />
have this much value sitting in the garage. (Never mind<br />
the temptation!!)<br />
That’s it from me.<br />
Cheers, Smithy.<br />

Motor <strong>Racing</strong> Is Dangerous<br />
We have all seen this statement on the entry forms<br />
we sign and the race programmes we get when we<br />
attend the meetings but until December 14 th I used<br />
to consider that it was for others, not applicable to<br />
me.<br />
Race Day<br />
I had finally sorted out most of the bugs on my 1985<br />
GSXR 7/11 which I had built up from a lot of spares<br />
that I had accumulated over the last 3 years and went<br />
to the AMCC club Championship meeting on Sunday<br />
14 th December with high hopes of a great days<br />
racing. The day was fine and there were a number<br />
of Pre 89 Senior bikes so we were expecting a good<br />
competitive day.<br />
We had, as usual for the AMCC rounds, been included<br />
with the Clubman’s field which usually meant that we<br />
could compare the “Old Ladies” against the newer<br />
model bikes. The day consisted of practise and three<br />
races.<br />
The first two races were great with the standard<br />
1052cc motor fitted into the 1985 GSXR 750 frame<br />
getting great starts and being slowly caught by the<br />
pack over the 6 laps. Unfortunately the starter motor<br />
packed it in after the practise and I had to push start<br />
the beast for the races. I was in the pits next to Jim<br />
Manoah who was great company and even better at<br />
pushing the Suzuki, thanks for your company and<br />
assistance Jim<br />
The Accident.<br />
The third race saw me get a good start again and I was<br />
holding a top 10 place going out of the left hander<br />
after the hairpin when we had a coming together<br />
with a rider who was trying to get past. The result<br />
was what we normally call a racing incident resulting<br />
in me crashing into the Armco on the infield going<br />
up the hill.<br />
It’s funny what goes through your mind as you watch<br />
the track disappear and the Armco rush up at you, I<br />
distinctly remember thinking that this was going to<br />
end in tears and that’s exactly what unfolded.<br />
I was extremely fortunate that my son Paul was<br />
marshalling at Castrol and as soon as he heard that<br />
85 was down he flagged down the recovery vehicle<br />
and was at my side looking after me. For this I am<br />
forever grateful.<br />
Don’t short change on safety equipment.<br />
When the bike and I had stopped rolling I did a<br />
quick check and immediately realized that this was<br />
a big accident as far as injuries were concerned,<br />
listed below is a rough précis of the injuries and the<br />
surgery:<br />
“Tony suffered horrendous injuries to the pelvic/<br />
hip area on both sides, as well as dislocating his<br />
left shoulder. On the Monday he underwent nearly<br />
7 hours of surgery to repair his left hip joint and<br />
top of femur. Not sure how many plates, nuts and<br />
bolts they used, but they said it took “two full<br />
repair kits”. He had 2 hours further surgery on<br />
Wednesday to repair his right knee cap during<br />
which he developed breathing difficulties. A CT<br />
Scan revealed that the bottom of his lungs had<br />
collapsed and filled with fluid, so he received a<br />
couple of blood transfusions, and is on constant<br />
oxygen to assist breathing.<br />
On the following Monday he underwent another 7<br />
1/2 hours of surgery to repair his right pelvic area<br />
(the x-ray shows that this was even more extensive<br />
than the hip injury). In the words of his surgeon...<br />
He didn’t “break” any bones, he just completely<br />
“smashed” them. The following day he had an<br />
emergency Angiogram revealing vein damage in the<br />
right leg which meant another 3 hours of Surgery to<br />
save his leg.<br />
The Surgeon has estimated about 3-4 weeks<br />
in Middlemore hospital, after which he will be<br />
transferred home about 2 months with no load<br />
bearing on the hips. At this stage he faces about 3<br />
months in a wheelchair. Hopefully after this he will<br />
be able to start getting back to some “normality”.<br />
As you can see from the injury list I still am in awe<br />
that there were no back injuries, this I put down to a<br />
God who looks after me, and good safety gear.<br />
I would like to publicly acknowledge the manufacturer<br />
of the Back Protector as this, and the associated<br />
carbon pads in the racing leathers contributed to<br />
me surviving this accident. Please if there is only<br />
one message to take from this then remember never<br />
underestimate the wisdom of getting first rate quality<br />
safety gear, It could mean the difference between<br />
life and death.<br />
Rehab.<br />
I am now waiting on the surgeons to give the go ahead<br />
for Rehabilitation and load bearing exercises and am<br />
on the healing trail. I would like to acknowledge the<br />
Nurses and Doctors of Ward 11 at Middlemore who<br />
spent so much of their time and attention looking<br />
after an old racer. They are an absolutely fantastic<br />
team who were patient and caring in all that they did,<br />
“THANKS FOR ALL YOUR LOVE AND CARE.”<br />
I need to thank all of the members of the <strong>NZ</strong>PCRA<br />
who took the time to send cards, visit me, and send<br />
E mails, it was uplifting to know that people cared.<br />
The biggest thanks need to go to my Wife and Family<br />
who put up with all the drama and continued to look<br />
for the best out of the situation.<br />

Best advice: Go Hard or Go Home.<br />
Why these bikes I developed the GSXR1100 in a Formula 1 sidecar that raced for a few years. When I<br />
sold it, I kept the engine. Then the newly formed Pre ‘89 class was created so all I needed was a chassis.<br />
So I bought a beaten up 1988 GSXR 750J road bike and sold the engine to the TQ guys knowing that<br />
one could fit the 1100 motor straight in. I made my own fairings and hey presto I had a very competitive<br />
7-11 toy. Yeah hah.<br />
The LC is a bike that I raced in England for a few years after the introduction of the Pro-Am series.<br />
Those were the days, 2 heats of 40 x RD350LC’s with the top 20 getting into the final. Now that is<br />
competition. So the nostalgia of that era has stuck with me and I love racing my little LC. I always get<br />
my fix from pushing her to the limit.<br />
