True Kiatoa , had the Rebels reached the final , they would still have been the weaker opposition . Panthers are a few notches above most other teams and have looked very strong this year . Overflowing with talent.
The Rebels were so close to losing to KihiKihi on Friday night remember.. Why is that there are always excuses when some teams lose . We were robbed , or The other team cheated . Why not take it on the chin and get over it. Its all history now , Palmy 1st HB 2nd ...

Even though I was on the commentary team I could not hear everything that was said from the infield, so never actually heard that mentioned. The last report I had was that it was being looked at - then the Rebels were called up for the race to decide 3rd & 4th and that was the last I heard.

It was announced after the final had been run. Was a shame as i thought even with manual lap-scoring the results should have been available after 10mins.

Hawkes Bay won fair and square and Rotorua could have won if there 135 had not of hit Jude when he was facing the wrong way, also the second infringement was 135 moved back offthe wall while under a red light. That was while the HB car of Mac had him held on the wall. Hawkes Bay did win and was confirmed by the lap scorers who had done a manuel one also. Also Mike Mac had a slipping clutch so he couldent go out in last race

If that was the case why would the announcers apoligies to both the Rebels and the public and announce that infact the Rebels had won the race. I do understand the race was bloody close but never believed the 97R was a lap down, when he crossed the line with 33B they were side by side but with 97R having his nose in front.

Because the announcers in typical Waikaraka (and Palmerston North) fashion mouth off before they have the facts. They twitter on and on about stuff that isn't correct until they convince themselves it is. They could do with taking some lessons from BB, who will always state if something is so, or if it needs to be checked.

Ill think youll find that the apoligie was for stuffing up the laps not who won or not. How did 97r not go alap down is what im asking you?? as Ive watch the video quite afew times and what I got out of it was Horse unlapping him self as 33B crosses the line.....

Its not hard to manual lap score just write down the number of every car that passes the flagman and count them up when your finished OR write all cars competing down the page and give each car a tick every time they pass the flagman

May work okay (sometimes) with 8 cars (if they all did 12 laps hehe), certainly wouldn't work with 30 under any circumstances. Give your theory a try next time you're at the track. Try it at the World of Stocks at Rotorua this weekend........

Try it at the World of Stocks at Rotorua this weekend........ Have done it for different classes including Superstocks,Midgets and TQ's among others over the years to text people results and am usually about 95% right so it can be done for 30 cars. Back to the teams racing in my view Horse was a lap down and unlapped himself as the Bay car crossed the finish line.

Did you think the result was right Barry? Not sure/ It's very VERY hard to lapscore from the infield (so much stuff can happen behind you, vehicles blocking the view etc). Was an action packed race for sure, and many people were lost early on (down in the middle at least). I've spoken to people sitting virtually next to each other in the stand who saw it differently, so I just don't know........
