If its a three way teams race like last year it will be entertaining for the crowd, and a hell of a lot of action for the drivers. 15 cars on the track all dishing out bellringers makes for a hang of a lot of action Look like some strong teams right there, though i had heard a whisper that Rees might have ministock commitments on the night in PN since both boys are now out there in that class, which will probably scupper his appearance. The Titans look dangerous again this year, with the same group of drivers who made the semifinal at the big event - it will be interesting to see how the new boy Tom Alexander goes - I'm assuming he is the next brother in the list after Tim and Scott

Cant have a three-way teams race with 4 teams obby ??
As mentioned above Nelson will be there and as far as I am aware it is a draw for a knockout race, then 2 winning teams contest the final and the two losing teams race off against each other.

hehe Sorry about that G daddy. Must have been the lack of names under the Tasman Thunders list? I guess who survives the opening meeting will help with that decision. I must say a shame the Greymouth Grizzlies missed out this year, but great to see more south island teams up there to get some good experiance against some hard chargers. Will be a great meeting, one not worth missing - hopefully there are a few amatuer video-o-graphers who download some of the teams races onto youtube so we can see some of the action if we can't make the meeting. Good luck to all drivers, and once we hear whose in the thunder team I look foward to hearing some predictions on whose going to win the meeting!

No room in Petes truck for the Superstock. He'll have the 3NZ and 31P Stockcars on board

I was informed last night from Blenheim that the South Island stockcar teams champs are on the 27th Feb at the Eastern States track. Be good to see how all the new and now not so new teams will go.

Do you think you could put some grammer in you speels bonez... it like one long dribble sentence, leave Pistolknight alone, he does extremely well commenting about meetings and whats happening from his armchair at home, even the 2nd rate ones...
Poor karen, being hounded by both of the glens most infamous keyboard dribble tappers.. as per "the nelson best pairs thread"....
crushers and thunder will have their work cut out with a 7 day turnaround from teams racing.... looks like eve of destruction may become an annual event. good place to run it, very central.

And fair enough too ...
Contenders might have been the quick cars of Caleb Russ and Ben Keys, if they wanted to teams race, but don't fix what ain't broke (sorry Adam, that doesn't include your right front wheel)....
