they made the right call. believe nicholls is a more effective driver in both rolls either running or blocking. imho

Think that its the right call also. Great team all round.

If you ask me, any tigers team is a good team. Would have liked to have seen Petersen there again, guess he hasn't got a car this season.

Maybe Cunningham wanted to be 6th driver??
Seems a shame if he did want to be in the top 5 tho after being a big part of helping them win in 2010.

Even though Higgy is a good driver, he didn't "trial" last night, as Dale Ewers said at the start of the night, none of the drivers get in automatically, so how come Higgy is in the team?

Think Dale McKenzie should be there as well

I would assume that Higgy is there on past proven performance. Seems highly logical.
It might not be an 'automatic' selection, but one that the selectors deem appropriate given his rather impressive career.

Some how i don't think the selectors had to think about that for to long!

Yeah, seems logical don't it!

[magem]

Well what would we be saying if one of the all time greats was not picked because he didn't race in Nelson on the 22nd Jan!
He said on TV today he was racing the car till sold so lets just hope no one buys it in the next 10 or so years! ;D ;D ;D

[stanly graham]

Lets face it Dale,Higgens,Harwood were in and it was only the other 3 spots up for grabs.Think Clayworth would make the best 6th driver,Been there done that before,got 2nd place in palmy in 91 with the tigers

[magem]

Not sure if the right decision has been made or not? Must have been hard to leave Clayworth out, but I can't see that any of the 6 don't deserve to be there either.

[eaglesfan11]

Higgins, Ewers would be first choice in any team.

omg!!!
are you for real
you must be the only person in nz that would question having higgy in "any" team.
there are few automatic choices, and higg is one.
would love to hear from anyone that disagrees.

p.s
last sat was the "final" trial not the only trial.

I've only just got around to checking up on a few things and I find ' shakenbake' is a second membership for someone so it's bye bye to the shakenbake persona.

[Schaaby]

I like the make up of this team and Brett proved a couple of years ago at Palmy in the semis that he is more then capable of changing a race.
Looking forward to the Tigers putting on a good show.

[Wildcat]

You would have to be mad to leave Higgy out ,hes the man ,tough as old boots /gumboots Only person ive seen give Rees and his gumboots a good heave ho up the wall at Parmy few years back A scene very rarely witnessed , ;D
