RECENT EVENTS:
Big Boys Toys - In case you missed it, Team CUNNINGSTUNTS performed at the Big Boys Toys show in Auckland, New Zealand on 14-16 November 2008. The good people from Blue Wing Honda NZ supplied 3 x brand new Honda CBR600RRs as well as 17 x brand new rear Michelin tyres which were all destroyed in smokey, rev limiting, tyre popping burnouts which the crowd went absolutely nuts for. A must see photos page from the event can be found here -

Cairns Auto Spectacular - With Sammo performing in New Zealand one weekend and Cairns with Willis the next, he had just one day at home before having to get ready for the Cairns Auto Spectacular. The boys put on a awesome show and had a great time providing plenty of action packed stunts in front a cheer crazy crowd. Pictures available at
