Richard hart that's a great zero to hero story having a brilliant season starred at the super champs but who is he whats his background anyone know be good to know He use to race out of Stratford as 7s Stockcar I believe. Also was a late addition to the GB Lions at the Teams Champs last season as one of the original 5 named was injured at the Lions vs Allstars race at wacky park the week before. Can't say I realized that he'd raced for GB, this year seems to be his first full season running a superstock in Palmy

Was that not the Panthers team that lost to Nelson earlier this season ? Should be interesting I'd say they'll be a lot stronger come February, Jack Miers hadn't had Dale Ewers car that long when the challenge cup was contested & looks a lot more confident in it now

First season in the Superstocks and is improving with every race he's in. One to watch in the future that's for sure.

Also his mum said on his facebook page that is highly unlikely he will be in New Zealand this season as he has a lot of cars to build before the season starts in April.

Is there a genuine reason why Richard Hart left Stratford. Or is he just another one that P have grabbed. Can only have a negative effect overall. Guess Mr Robertson has too much say(and money).

I don't think the P really "grabbed" anyone. Drivers just gravitate there for better competition week in week out as much as anything else. It's like water down the plug hole though isn't it, as the more that go, the more that follow. I too would like to see more tracks be competitive in their own right on a regular Saturday night, but to blame Bruce for the situation isn't exactly fair IMHO. Barry B

Unsure if hes racing teams this year but normally when he does he lays it all on the line and the car ends up looking rather used haha
Just a thought isnt it crazy to think of the top drivers we have lost to injury or retirement from teams in just 12 months. Shane Penn, Ross(Horse)Ashby, Kyle Frazer who between them have many many titles and will be sorely missed.

Don't discount Kyle Fraser , so long as he own a car theres a chance he may slot into a team.. When guys have done it for years it must be hard to give up .. Look at Trevor Mason, we heard he had given it up and next thing hes back on the scene ...
