Just looking for an expression of interest.
If we knocked up a race team shirt - would you buy one.?

Mine and Russ's business's are the main sponsors - (for taxation purposes.. :-) )

The other businesses on there are helping out Wattie, Russ and me with our racing this year.

If anyone else would like to sponsor us and get on the shirts, shoot me a PM and we'll work something out.

If anyone else racing this year wants to get in the "team" let us know.. :-)
This has as much to do with tax minimisation as it does with trying to look better than we ride.. :-)

Cost will be about $25 to $30 depending on qty we can sell..

I'll buy one Dave to show my support for "Team Bun Face" :kuda:

I think the design looks really good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8)

Plus, anything that makes me look like I'm in a racing team can only be good :twisted:

I'll buy one too....the regular ones stood out pretty well on the TV for the Wakefield round so it's worth doing I reckon.

Also, what's involved in becoming part of the "team"? ...and would you want to put your name on a 30 year old Yamaha?

I can't divulge the initiation process in public, but will say its extremely painful and very embarrasing...

and no we wouldn't.... :-)


Kidding,
its all just about trying to look more proefessional than we are (and claim tax deductions for the advertising).. If others want to join the "team" we will supply the stickers... and at race meetings, as we all help each other out, and we all wear the shirts, it may just look like we know what were doing.. (or not)... it may look a bit odd with a Yamaha though... :-)

I'd prefer something similar to the present with the sponsors on the sleeve or preshaps some on the sleeve and one or two on the chest / back. They I'd get one.

Always happy to help out in the name of tax deductions :kuda:

Seriously though, if I can fit the stickers on the tail piece I'm happy to chuck them on there and put whatever team name is appropriate on the entry form. I'm assuming I'd just need to find space for a TAOF and Bakers Delight sticker? It'll only be for the PCRA rounds of course on the LC, so I'm guessing there won't be many others there with the shirts except for maybe talking a few of you into coming out to the EC round in June ;)

The next round is May 16th at Wakefield.

I'll take a couple for my excursions over the border in the FX and the green is good for finding my son in the pits at Phillip island :D

Tax purposed? you are racing for tax purposes??????????????? :shock:

here i am busting my arse and you guys doing it for tax purposes? :?

Michelle says she wants here name put up as one of the Major sponsors. i cant really disagree with her...

under bakers delight put "and Watties Wife" :lol:

on the serious side, my mum and step dad will take one or 2, i'm sure i could flog em to half my family. 8)

Mike, this is more a "wear to race meets" shirt than to the pub/picnic
I think its important that we give a bit of advertising back to the people that have helped us, big or small.
