Post by MIKEP »

We have a Tech night arranged at Race Brakes in Kingsland who are kindly hosting us . For over thirty years Race Brakes have been providing industry leading stopping power for some of the fastest cars and largest commercial vehicles in New Zealand. You'll see the RACE BRAKES wagons at many of the Motorsport meets in the North Island, either taking in the action as a spectator, or in the pits assisting race teams. So if you have a question want to discuss your plan or just want to see what race Brakes can offer plan to be there

John Arkley Founder, owner and manager of the business has had a long association with Motorsport both as an advisor to competitors, and throwing on the helmet to race in such events as Heatway Rallies, Production Supercar, Endurance, and Targa. His current toys include an R33 Nissan GTR Targa / Endurance race car.

This is a great idea. And great work organising it Mike. Unfortunately for me week nights are almost impossible, especially on the other side of Auckland. Sorry.

That's ok I might call it off if we got no takers .After all don't want them to think we are not interested. They have some expense in wages and stuff so I'd rather call it off if we can't get a few.ill make the decision Monday night

This was posted to the MR2 facebook page -

Hi Aaron from Race Brakes. We were organizing a tech night with the MR2 owners club on Wednesday 3rd Oct. Unfortunately due to unforeseen health issues John is scheduled for surgery and we will be unable to run the night. We hope you understand and we would like to reschedule a new time with you.

so guys it's not on on Wednesday .Ill reschedule for another date in November. I did have a race engine builder lined up for tech night in November but I'll shift that one to next year.

Keep your eyes out for details
