Was interesting to see Shane Mellsop (7B) running around with his face painted in Tigers colours and carrying a Tigers flag both nights yelling smash the Hawkeyes... will we see a nice welcome home party in a couple of weeks at Meeanee ;D

I hope so that would be really worth watching... ;D All in good faith i would say. I thought this year was lacking in hype (especially on the first night) however that South African horn is the most annoying noise out there!!! But all in all great!!!!

What about the noisey guys and kids going around with faces painted,flags and horns?! I Saw them around the shops in the morning with there faces done both Friday and Saturday what a noisey bunch they were. But good on them getting behind there team. ;D

We had a lady sitting down from us proudly wearing her nelson colours and was all go when they won the race, ofcourse upon relegation she dissapeared and re appeared with a newly brought shirt of some superstock nature.
It was all in good banter as she took it back off, made for a good laugh.

So you cant go for another team if you live in the Bay? We live in the Bay and we were going for Rotorua! Is a crime to go for another team.
I actually saw a number of Bay people going for other teams - dont see them being named on here
Grow up Marty!

I actually saw Shane dressed in his tigers gear and thought Good on him - he's enjoying his night.
Just because you might live in the Bay doesnt mean you have to go for them.
I was going for Rotorua and Manawatu simply because I was backing people I know in there!

Myself my wife and friends were sitting behind mr Mellsop both nights
And I never heard or saw him say anything along those lines marty
He explained to us why he went for Nelson because he is very good
Friends with Shane Harwood, Brett Nicholls and Blair Cunningham, he
Also said he had spend all week helping Gary foley fabricate some wheel
Guards, I didn't know mr Mellsop at all before the weekend but now have
The up most respect for him as a person and racer he new who was
Leading races when I didn't have a clue and him and my wife both enjoyed cheering for Nelson. Shane also said he wasn't in the hawkes bay team as they had alot of problems with his car prior to the team being named. So good on ya Shane look forward to speaking at the north islands in palmy

P.s. Shane Kevin Roberts was scammed against Nelson haha

Good on him...let him support who he likes.
Guy had a good time

I'd be more worried about why Hawkes Bay leave one of there best drivers out of there team and have to get a car from Palmy to make up your numbers.
