Cooper regaining ground A top performance by Tauranga’s former national Moto X champion Cody Cooper over the weekend has him back in contention in the national series. Photo by Andy McGechan, bikesportnz.com

While Cooper was ultimately outclassed by last year’s winner Ben Townley of Woodville, who went on to win the remaining two races in the three-race event New Zealand Motocross Grand Prix, Cooper’s performance has upped the stakes for the next round in the series when the New Zealand Motocross Championships kicks off near Timaru on February 10.

Commenting on his performance – which had prompted pundits to rate his chances a lot higher – Cooper said he was thrilled with the performance of his Suzuki RM-Z450 “We were only using stock front forks today and that did cause a few problems, with the track beating me up a bit. But this was an

excellent build-up for the nationals and I am thrilled with the bike.”

Cooper, who left the champs for testing in Australia this week, says he will be “raring to go when the New Zealand Champs kick off ”, Moto City Suzuki team manager Andrew Hardisty said it was “great working with great people” and Cooper and his MX2 class teammate Rhys Carter were two of the best.

Hardisty, himself a multiple former national motocross champion, says it was a very tough day because of the track conditions.

“It was fantastic to see both Cody and Rhys riding so well. Cody could easily have won the day if a lapped rider hadn’t gotten in the way and fouled things up for him in race three, causing him to lose his lead.”

Carter finished fifth overall in the talentpacked MX2 class, getting better as the day wore on, his best result a third placing in the last race of the day, just when the track was at its worst and dust was also making visibility difficult.

Tearing ahead in TRS While the Toyota Racing Series has been “a little frustrating” for Te Puke teen Michael Scott, he says the experience is a massive learning curve.

The 18-year-old driving sensation is midway through the series, having raced in Invercargill, Timaru and Taupo, and heading for Hampton Downs and Feilding in the coming weeks.

Having moved up to the premier singleseater TRS Championship this year, Michael is one of three Kiwis racing top international drivers and says the level of skill has been stunning and rather a shock.

“I’m absolutely loving it, it’s been a huge step up and a learning curve, not only with the increase in speed but also the level of competition. It’s quite a challenge to try and match these guys.”

The highlight so far is last weekend’s 20 lap race in Taupo, where Michael placed tenth from 18 drivers. Travelling at about 240km on the straights, he says each round he has managed to

Michael Scott, 18, says competing among top international drivers has been a massive learning curve.

improve and get closer to the top.

The big difference this year is the step up in car technology, with a purpose-built monocoque carbon fibre chassis and sealed 1.8-litre in-line four-cylinder engines. “(It’s been) a big learning curve to get used to not simply the speed, it’s more getting used to the aerobes and the sticky tyres which means you go a lot quicker around the corner.

Originally aiming to finish in the top five, Michael says it’s difficult not performing as well as he’d hoped, but he is determined to come back next year – engines blazing.

“It’s probably been a little more frustrating, we had hoped to do a little better.

“We consider this year very much a learning year. That is the aim, to try make it back for a second season.”

After the series finishes in February, Michael will head to the University of Canterbury to study engineering and says it is not clear what plans will be made for the 2013 season.

“It’s great in some ways as the series finishes before university starts, but for the rest of the year it’s still up in the air.”

Round 4: Feb 1-3 Hampton Downs, New Zealand Motor Cup. Round 5: Feb 7-10 Manfeild, Feilding, New Zealand Grand Prix (along with the Dan Higgins Trophy and Dorothy Smith Memorial Cup). Michael would like to thank the following sponsors: Tony Richards Toyota, Trevelyans, Spreadmaster and Shawn Williamson building.

Power to the people A family mover with grunt

The roomy people mover, Colorado 7 is ideally suited to a large family.

It is many years since Sideline Sid felt the nerves of the first day of secondary school or the start of a new job but they were there again on a beautiful mid-summer Western Bay morning when he set out to test-drive a new Colorado 7 from Ebbett Tauranga.

While the old fella has written hundreds of thousands of words in the last couple of decades, the first car review for Bay Driver was a whole new ball game. More accustomed to writing about right hooks and off drives - the call to duty to write about motor vehicles was a challenge that had Sideline Sid a little apprehensive but also looking forward to the new challenge.

First impressions, when handed the keys

by Julian at Ebbett in Cameron Road, was of real size for a 2.8 litre diesel vehicle.

SPECS o7 Colorad

Built on the lines of the Colorado Ute, the new brother to the Holden Ute had several outstanding features that make it really look the part.

The 4x4 has seven full seats and has the grunt to easily tow a load of up to three tonnes. Billed as ready to take on the red dirt, black rock or white sands of New Zealand, I was interested to know if it lived up to its name.

With neither the time or the terrain to give the vehicle a real workout, we headed along the expressway to the back road to Rotorua, to see how it handles. Stopping at Pyes Pa School for a photo shoot, I came to the realisation that it was a heavyweight vehicle for a heavyweight family.

Built upon the lines of David Tua or Shane Cameron - being light on its feet but with a real punch, the Colorado 7 is a people mover with grunt. Ideally suited for a large family, the 50/50 split of the back seats provide five seats and a huge boot area, or seven seats that give an outstanding degree of comfort to all seven passengers.

The Colorado 7 will also

appeal to the outdoors types with the ability to tow such as a big boat on an extended fishing trip. One can imagine the Colorado 7 loaded with all the necessities of a trip to far away fishing grounds. With a tough coil spring five-link live axle, high ride height and four wheel drive, this is a vehicle to get you to the back blocks and beyond in New Zealand.

A real plus for older types is the side steps, which make boarding and disembarking a breeze - shades of the vintage cars such as the Essex Eight, having running boards, which are a narrow step fitted under the side doors.

An unlikely benefit in the early 20th century, was that gangsters used their running boards, to get better aim at police officers and rival gangsters.

Sitting in the driver seat, one is faced by all the bells and whistles and then some. Bluetooth and a CD audio system with steering wheel audio controls connected to six speakers. A trip computer, that tells you everything you could ever want to know such as how

much fuel is remaining and the kilometres left before the vehicle runs out of diesel.

In addition to full-length air bags, two items in the back of the Colorado 7, provide extra comfort and versatility. Rear seat air conditioning provides the same comfort level in the back seat as in the front, while a 12-volt power connection in the boot gives an additional bonus for such as camping trips.

Today’s specifications tend to be described in capital initials, with the vehicles brochure telling me that the Colorado 7 has ESC (Electronic Stability Control) ASB (AntiLock Braking System) LSD (Limited Slip Differential) DCS (Descent Control System) and HAS (Hill Start Assist).

Final impressions on reluctantly handing the keys back to Julian, is that it drives like an around town sedan, but has the size and capabilities of an off road vehicle. The Colorado LTZ has a RRP of $66,900 with the LT available at $62,900.

Would I buy one – you betcha.

Viper’s sting infects car lover Self-professed petrol head Graeme Clark might be a foundation member of the Ford Muscle Club, but he is pretty open-minded when it comes to his cars.

From his first car – a 1954 Mark I Zephyr he owned for 13 months – he has been through a wide range of cars, only sharing the ability to travel at speed.

“I just like cars and the faster they go the better I like them,” says Graeme.

“I’ve always loved cars – I even drove the Mk 1 Zephyr as if it’s a race car much to my friends dismay.”

The two cars that share pride of place in his shed today are a 1966 Oldsmobile ‘98’ in immaculate condition and a 1999 Dodge Viper GTSACR which he has had just over a year.

“I’ve had lots of other cars with threequarters of them being modified.”

Graeme has always had a soft spot for big

The only thing self-professed petrolhead Graeme Clark enjoys more than a drive in his classic V8 1966 Oldsmobile 98 (above) is heading out in his 1999 Dodge Viper GTSACR (left).

classic cruisers like his Oldsmobile – having earlier owned a 1970 Pontiac Bonneville convertible and a 1966 Buick Riviera.

“They are lovely to drive, they float along and you’ve got lots of room in them. I just love those old cars.

“I take it out as much as I can get the time to – we take it to the Beach Hop of course and it’s a great big car for cruising around on Sundays.”

These days you are just as likely to see Graeme in his beloved Viper, a car he admits to dreaming of having for as long as he can remember.

“The Viper is the coolest car I’ve ever had.”

Graeme says it is great to have the car he has wanted for years, but it came at the cost of having to sell his beloved ’65 Notchback Mustang, a car he had hugely modified over 25 years for club racing.

“It was my wife’s instructions I had to sell the Mustang to get the Viper – so I sold it to my daughter. But it’s so modified it doesn’t make a very good streetcar, so I tried to talk her out of buying it.

“It sounded amazing. It had a six-speed gear box and a nine-inch diff, but it’s ter-

rible for turning on the street.”

The ACR in the Viper’s name stands for American Club Racing, with the GTS adapted for track racing. The car boasts an eight litre V10 engine, clipped to 530horespower at 5800rpm, has a six-speed transmission and can do a standing quarter mile in 11.7 seconds at 123 miles per hour.

It has a top speed in excess of 190 miles per hour.

Graeme says he absolutely loves driving the Viper, describing it as in mint condition and a great car to drive.

BMW limited editions Hot on the heels of becoming the number one premium car brand in New Zealand, BMW has announced the launch of two special limited edition models to celebrate BMW’s 30th anniversary in New Zealand.

These appropriately branded ‘Edition 30’ vehicles are based on the award winning BMW 1 Series and 3 Series, and offer Kiwis the opportunity to purchase a BMW 116i, 320i or 320d boasting an impressive array of additional features and unique design elements for a marginal increase in drive-away price.

Optima ‘Car of the Year’

The Kia Optima was named International Car of the Year at the Detroit Auto Show.

The redesigned Optima topped Road & Travel Magazine’s list of 10 improved models which were announced at the show which finished on Sunday (January 27).

Magazine editor Courtney Caldwell said the Optima rose to the top of the list as “the most emotionally compelling vehicle” above all others.

“Its functional yet sleek design as well as advanced features intertwines effortlessly with consumer lifestyles on many levels, qualities we look for when considering contenders for the ICOTY awards.”

Completely redesigned for the 2011 model year, the Optima’s stunning design combined with space, comfort and impressive specification propelled the mid-size sedan to becoming the top-selling Kia vehicle in the US market in 2012.

BRZ ‘Best Buy’

Subaru’s all new sports coupe BRZ has become a multiple award winner worldwide with success in Australia, North America, Japan and Europe – with the latest acclaim

coming from Australian automotive website themotorreport.com.au.

The BRZ was named the Best Buy for 2012 by the motorreport.com.au, stating that after tens of thousands of kilometres behind the wheels of the latest models it was a clear winner. The award was shared with its Toyota 86 “twin” – which are both made by Subaru at its Gunma factory near Tokyo.

“In making this choice, we've assessed each contender on a balance of purchase price against quality, excellence in execution, and how well each succeeds in its intended function.

“Sporting style, rapier handling, superb balance; the Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 embody all that each promises to be, and at a price for the young driver.”

Kias’ new three-door sport

Kia is introducing a 3-door Sport model to spice up its Rio small car range in New Zealand, but numbers are limited to a one-off shipment of 50.

Kia Motors New Zealand general manager Todd McDonald has been developed especially for the New Zealand market based on the European model.
