    Rally New Zealand 2010

    After wrangling with work, I am now finally able to organise my travel to the Shakey Isles for Rally NZ. It looks like it will be another great event, moving away from Hamilton to Auckland. The entry list looks good too.

    Accomodation is not bad either too. Staying at Mercure Auckland about 100m from the service park for NZD$88 or AUD$67. Not bad for a 4 star class hotel.

    Curious to see and hear who else if attending and what they will be doing over this weekend.
    Happiness is using the side windows more than the windscreen

    In reply to being asked what 240Kph on Watagans Road was like:-

    Indeed I stay at Rydges for 197 euro for 4 nights .... next to Sky Tower and not to far from service park.
    The flight there is different story
    Passion will make you crazy, but is there a other way to live ? :burnout:

    Yes, it is not the easiest of trips from Perth. Hope you can make it to the east for next year.

    Had a suprise email this morning, looks like my magazine are interested in sending me back home to NZ to cover the event for them.

    It's a 50/50 whether it goes through or not but would be fantastic if it could!

    f2.8 is the only way to go! Better get on the phone to the boss and do some convincing! Might be able to see you on the stages!

    I've already convinced my editor of the need to cover the event and will be on the stages. I'll be doing a piece featuring the habits of the Kiwi rally spectator, can anyone tell me were to find the hardest core spectators to embed with???
