What a weekend to have the MNZ conference! Everyone was
racing, from the first round of the Suzuki Winter Series
to the first World 500cc GP for 1999.
The Malaysian GP was a real eye-opener with Kenny Roberts
Jnr streaking away for the win, five times world champion
Michael Doohan finishing fourth, and New Zealands Simon
Crafer languishing back in 14th place.
The second round of the World Superbike Championship was
a lot more exciting for NZ, with Aaron Slight enjoying
a thrilling battle for third place in both races, narrowly
missng to team mate Colin Edwards both times.
Shayne & Darryl King and Josh Coppins were also racing in the weekend - we will let you know how they got on.
