I received at email from MA about this today indicating it wa being held on 26-28 March 2016 to which I have replied as follows

Hi, the email I received states WSBK and ASBK round at Phillip Island is 26-28 March. I am riding down with some mates for 26-28 February. Hope we are not a month early, or we will have to spend much time in the pub. Cheers, Martin

:lol:

By the way anyone else from here heading down?

I've just done 5 days at the Creek in a week, so I'm a bit tuckered out. Also I'm not sure I could've physically got from EC to PI between yesterday night and this morning's test start.

I was veeeeery tempted to go to this, but it would've meant missing St George, so I made the tough call and stayed local. I'll be down there in two weeks anyway for ASBK ;)

M.A. announce 2016 ASBK media packageThe Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK) has announced its 2016 media package, which aims to cover all bases across media platforms.
This year’s coverage of the ASBK will see every round televised free-to-air and on pay TV, plus the introduction of NRGTV’s video production service, lastly incorporating a fresh newly developed media team, which is set to take ASBK to new levels in 2016.
The Australian Superbike Championship is pleased to confirm ASBK free to air coverage on 7mate, and welcome back Fox Sports for a second year running, which will see expert commentator and former World Endurance Champion Steve Martin back calling all of the ASBK action for 2016.

http://www.mcnews.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Steve-Martin.jpg (http://www.mcnews.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Steve-Martin.jpg)Steve Martin

Steve Martin
“Television is such a big part of the ASBK and its great to be able to work with championship and head in one clear direction together.

“To be able to showcase the ASBK to a worldwide audience is something very exciting, and really provides all stakeholders involved in the championship with a great opportunity.

“To be able to cover the series for a second year in a row is exciting, I am looking forward to working hard to show everyone what our Australian athletes are capable of.”

http://www.mcnews.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/2015-ASBK-Rnd1-SBK-R1-Herfoss-Hook-Falzon-1024x795.jpg (http://www.mcnews.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/2015-ASBK-Rnd1-SBK-R1-Herfoss-Hook-Falzon.jpg)ASBK 2015 Race One

One week after each round ASBK coverage will be shown on 7mate in a one-hour action packed show. Round coverage will also then be showcased on Fox Sports (Foxtel) two weeks after each round in a two-hour extended show, providing even more feature content and selected footage from all national classes.
This year’s ASBK coverage will also see the introduction of NRGTV, the long running internet broadcaster for the MX Nationals Series, with a heightened focus on social media video production, and content creation throughout the six rounds across the country.
The introduction of these changes can already be seen throughout ASBK’s social media platforms and ASBK website, as the series also welcomes a dynamic MA in-house media team for 2016.
Misty Walton, MA Media and Public Relations Manager has vast industry experience and is a well respected member of the motorcycling community – well known for her media work across a number of different disciplines. Pairing with her, will be Walton’s assistant Eliza Berry who adds a fresh new dynamic to the media team bringing with her new energy whilst completing her degree in Media and Public Relations.
Together the pair will manage media for MA’s multiple National Championships including the ASBK, using their knowledge and experience to create higher standards for MA communications and National event coverage.
David Cottee, CEO of Motorcycling Australia
“We are thrilled to offer this media package to our sponsors, teams, and athletes to promote the sport to the largest audience possible. Our aim with the television broadcast is to showcase the sport’s high speed action and to build on creating a bigger and better national championship throughout 2016,” he said.

“To see the development of the series over last year is just incredible. We are continually developing and listening to what our stakeholders, ambassadors and competitors want and trying to move in a direction where we can continue to have a National Championship of the highest quality.

“We are proud to offer this year’s media package to competitors and teams. It is wonderful to be able to build on last year’s success to deliver fresh, exciting, new camera angles, interviews, vision and capture how hard our Australian talent works to be able to claim the ASBK title.”

Just out of interest Nick, was power supplied to the paddock area for the support riders and did you need a generator rolled out onto the track for warmers or was it a warm up lap then race without delay?

Just out of interest Nick, was power supplied to the paddock area for the support riders and did you need a generator rolled out onto the track for warmers or was it a warm up lap then race without delay?

There was a 15A outlet for each competitor. We needed generators on the grid (this year the media grid was 10 mins each, up from 5 mins). At the 3 min mark they used to shoo you off the track, by the time you got warmers on, it was exactly time to take them off! Daft. This year it was at the 2 min mark, so warmers for 5 or 6 mins (after getting them fitted) was quite useful. A couple of ppl just sat there. In the heat of Qld last year, I did the same thing. If it's hot, even 10 mins is fine. You get another warmup lap after.

You don't have to sit on the grid - you can go out and come in again after the sighting lap, or even not go out at all. Then start from pit lane on the warmup lap (after the 10 mins) and take your normal grid spot. But sitting there on the grid with a big crowd and all the action feels sooooooo MotoGP!! :cheer: :first:

Great information Nick. You've given me motivation to enter the 600's next year. I'll get my arse kicked but the whole WSBK experience will be worth it :amen:

Holy shit Nick! That was instant! Glad you are okay! Didn't hurt the ankle at all?

No wonder the exhaust folded like a pretzel.

It was strange alright. I just can't figure it out, and have chalked it up to 'one of those things'. It did put me off through Hayshed for the rest of the weekend though!

right hand side of the tyre must have cooled down a lot? Honda corner wouldn't have put much heat through it especially at outlap pace, and the hayshed was the first right hander where that grip was needed??

It sounds like the throttle was shut twice , the second time just before it went which would have loaded the front that wasn't up to operating temperature maybe. ?

You could be right! I just listened again, and I definitely shut off again, then it goes. So it really was the dude in front's fault ;) He was a pain in the ass all weekend - all over the track, slow mid-corner, then fast out, and repeat.

Not at Siberia, but over Lukey and into MG I was watching the race unfold on the big screen there. I kept having to remind myself that I was racing too!!

Love the grin on your mugshot mate, looks like I feel everytime I rock up at the track, I liken it to giggling like a schoolgirl.
