That was possible with last year's 13 team format.......highly improbable, virtually impossible one would have thought, but HB managed to achieve it....... Let's do it on the terracotta, Barry B probable but I was incorrect barry I was looking at wildcats opponent not the hawkeyes but the wildcats do have the same 2 opponents from last year I was talking about winning 4 races and not being on the podium, NOT who drew whom in the draw Let's do it on the terracotta, Barry B |

seeded teams get longer breaks.... them the royalties of finishing top 4 the year before... its always been like that nothings changed  OK, not really an even playing field thou, seems the rich get richer. Come up with a better option and I guarantee it will be looked at - there's your challenge beachboy Let's do it on the terracotta, Barry B |

LOL some people... OMG Tonga have been in the all blacks group at the world cup 2003, 2011, and 2015  that nutss rigged please keep on topic this is about the draw for the superstock teams champs Was the Teams champs draw done the way most big sporting events are done with the county/team name written on the piece of paper that gets pulled out or was it still done the dodgy way of numbers pulled out of a hat and that number corresponds to..to to .... hang on! who will we make team number 5 that races against that team? |

I cant see any way that the draw looks dodgy ..
All fairly evenly matched I rekon .
I guess old BeachBall just doesn't have any confidence of his chosen team to beat anyone lol..

Hahah….so easy to manipulate the draw that way huh. It looks pretty good though with very even groups. It wouldn't of mattered who drew who this year as all teams good and well organised by the sounds of it. One of the most open camps in a while. Have to win races to win overall.
Some intriguing individual match ups and team match ups also. Mustangs, Wanganui, Chch group be interesting. Ngatai vs his nth island contracted club. Pearson and Humphrey vs the mustangs.
Nelson and Rotorua are always good races, one team will have to completely stop the other to win this race and UK could surprise if not shown enough respect.
Panthers will have to work well to beat Hb and how good is it going to be to see Hemi race the panthers. The side that snubbed him and no longer needed his services. Awesome.
Baypark have been talked up for a while now and won't find scrappers or auckland easy in a very even group. Akl vs Stratty race could be awesome. Guildford vs old team. A win by good points in this group could decide the winner as i can see each team picking up a win
All group winners are going to deserve their spots in the semis, thats a safe bet

Beachie himself could do the draw and he would find a conspiracy in that as well - lol ! |

That won't stop people from complaining that their team won both races but still didn't top the group. mate on this format only 4 teams can be unbeaten on night 1 at the most You don't have to be unbeaten to top your group, win both races but only pick up first place in each leaves you with just 200 points. All it then takes is for one of the other teams to have a big win and pick up enough minor places in their other race to get more points. thats what i was saying, winning both races doesnt mean you will top the group |

100 (win only) + 100 (win only) = 200 points
95 (2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th) + 185 (first 4 home) = 280 points
Let's do it on the terracotta,

Yes, there are quite a few scenarios whereby a team with two wins can get beaten. A team needs to win at least one to progress, but if you can't win the first one a narrow loss can keep you in contention. A win with a couple of other cars in the points in R2 will often still get you through.

This is why HB ended out of the top 4.
Didn't get the cars over the line to score after winning.
