The forum credits Peter Neame, but I'm pretty sure it was taken by Dan Petterson of the Manawatu Standard. Would have to be one of the most frequently flogged copyright speedway photos of all time -- turns up in all sorts of places! Love the dude in the blue shirt, above the Boss and a few rows back  |

Is that wing legal??
I thought they had to be within the confines of the body of the car? Looks to me like its outside of them in those pics.

you must remember 1 of boote,s titles was a soft title in huntly where it was one of those weak 25 lapper format with almost zero action & all racing to decide the outcome not like evans/free/podjursky etc who had to race in the much tougher format of 3 heat finals. Weak win it may have been but remember who was in front of him and what was the grid start he had and all bets WERE NOT on him to win the deal but yet after 25 laps there he was. Format or not,he won it!!! All I know that its great have his type back in the Superstocks as it wont be long and that class is going to be struggling to find real sparkle and true heros if todays economics keep spiralling outwards like they are!! Just remember this is just my humble opinion here!!!   PS: As for Dave Evans,you must remember that his 2nd Title at Rotovegas was where the previous years title holder had AUTOMATIC qualification into the Finals the next season so in a way that "softens" his exploits too eh??? Whatever really,whichever way a title is decided,the winner deserves it no matter how you look at it!!! . . . . . . and Paul Grant moved over and let Dave Evans through to win  |

Watched him race at Nelson last season, 9 years out of the car, climbs back in behind the wheel, wins the second race! Is there any truth to the rumour he has a new car ordered?

The counter rumour is that that plan was scrapped in oder to get the current car up and running properly for this season, including some engine work. We all hope a new car will arrive to replace the Hot Rod when it is retired. |
