not just the young guns but other teams as well, there was alot of cutting the pole line and last year we got fined in the titans race for doing that and this year there was so many getting away with it.You were even aloud to hit a car head on if you thought he was going to back into you, how silly is that!! I didn't see feck all cheating going on and I was situated just away from the pole line. Maybe some of the drivers shoulda known better with the moving back after a red light but other than that it was pretty clean racing.. We had some of the Auckland drivers standing near us and they were saying that they were sick of hearing complaints about the size and the numbers on their cars (and how they're 'hard to read'), but that seemed to be all they were moaning about. |

Standard Teams rules if a car is in an attacking position you can hit them i.e If a car can hit you whilst moving in the race direction (anticlockwise) either in a forward gear or in reverse gear they are fair game. This is the same rule that they have raced in Palmy and Wellington before nothing new there. And the white flag comes out when then the lead car completes the required number of laps then the checkered flag comes out the next time that car comes round, BUT if the lead car receives the white flag and then gets taken out before crossing the checkered the white flags REMAINS OUT until the next lead car completes the required number of laps. e.g Lead car receives white flag but gets taken out before finishing and the next car is 4 laps down the white flag stays out for 4 laps And what I saw of the pole line (albeit on video as I couldn't be there  ) some of the races had quite a few cars from both teams cutting the pole line on turn three so I can see one of two options for the ref to take (maybe he did maybe he didn't) 1: Fine every car that cuts the pole line (lets say $100 min fine) that would be $700 on turn three from one race and lets say about $700 from turn 1 which seems to be the other problem corner so $1400 from 1 race x 10 races $14,000 to SNZ. Now no one is going to complain about that are they  2: Basically one teams cutting pole line canceled other teams cutting pole line Thanks for the Date looks to be a bit more user friendly for me so I might make it up. Do feel for the Welly track and the bad weather they got but the original date sucked for me |

It would be good to see a change. Well done to Wellington in their successful defense, but I agree with Regan. Just a question about the Ref from Nelson. What happened there??? I understand he was sacked after the first nights racing. Correct me if i am wrong. I just had a good conversation with someone involved. Was it the one of the normal track Refs from Nelson  as both are still working at the Nelson track and we had no problems with the Teams races held in Nelson this year. And as I understand it alot of the Stockcar/Superstocks like racing in Nelson as the Referees are alot fairer then others around the country |

Rod is one of the most quietly spoken and true gentlemen you would ever hope to meet in two lifetimes. He has the respect of every stockcar driver I have ever spoken to on the matter. |
