Chris “crispy” Smith with more than 25 years as a professional riding coach Chris has got more brains than Kurt Cobain’s garage walls when it comes to riding. One of the friendliest guys in the pits Chris will give you the shirt off his back and his pants and his undies and probably his bike. Whilst Chris isn’t riding this season he will be there to offer his time to anyone that needs it. Actions like this is why he has won the "Spirit of the Cup" award multiple years in a row, oh also he rides ok, ex cup champ or something
Hey all I’m Ben, Benny, Cookie #10
I have been involved in the CCMS / Hyosung Cup for 11 years. I have competed in both Hyosung 250’s & Ninja 400 classes. During my time in the cup I have had race wins, a lap record at Taupo, one of 5 people to crack 1:21’s at Hamptons on a Hyo, and podiumed in both classes. I approach my race days in a prepared calm manner and prefer sipping tea over spinning spanners on race day. I have been known to take cake bribes for tips on set up and tyre pressures. Unfortunately never a cup championship winner only runner up, but I’m planning to take the top spot this year on a 250, and prove it can be done on a budget! Looking forward to sharing some knowledge and paint at the track with you all.
With undoubtedly the most luscious hair on the grid Justin brings a touch of majesty to the track - if not his seat.
While his riding may not be as smooth as his locks he has competed in both the Hyosung and Ninja Cup classes and has at times led each championship. Granted, he has crashed out of contention each time but there's been some fleeting semblance of speed. Some say the crashes were a protest of not being allowed titanium components on the bike, so he had them installed in himself. Others say he's just sh*t at riding. Either way Justin brings with him a working knowledge of pain killers and can help you navigate the pros and cons of ibuprofen vs Voltaren, paracetamol vs tramadol and how to pass off a mid-life crisis as a simple desire to dress up in leather and ride around in circles.
