i wouldn't advise heading over to fb or the rees fb page. its pretty vile over there. they have achieved the desired effect that they knew would happen with announcing with suppression on the situation. this place is angelic in comparison! if not a bit cloudy........... At the risk of having the post removed - apprently, the fact that Kerry refused to step down from the Mustangs played a part. I really hope that the Rees' are better than that. And in all honesty, why the heck should Kerry stand down or be stood down? - it's not like either of the Ree's are angels - do we all remember when Pete Ree's carved all four wheels through the grass to pick up Glen Drabble, fire him into the wall, on his roof and on fire during the teams champs a good 4 or 5 years back? Sure he was excluded from that race, but it didn't go any further than that as I recall. I wonder what Glen's repair bill was - and did he have "the best engine builder in the country" then "fix and replaced the parts on the motor within 12 hours throwing all their resources at it"... (those quotes via A.R.Motorsport FB page) |

I believe also that there is more to it than the incident on Saturday night . After watching the Rees race over the years, incidents will be dealt with on the track. So I do not think they are throwing their toys out but are protesting about something else. Which I hope will be defused quickly

This is just crazy.... With all due respect to Pete Rees the show will go on with out him and will be just as good if not better.. Pete is one of the nice. Guys of the sport who would be the first to help anyone out if need be.. Me and Pete have had our battles over the yeas but off track he's still the same helpful nice guy. It's a pity that things have come to this.. Asher I believe needs to pull his head In and realise he's new to the sport earn some respect, and stop living off his dads fear and name.. Making comments like he did he deserves to be attacked. And if it is the Kerry drama that's brought all this on well how many times has Pete or the Rees boys cut the grass to hit someone?? Or done illegal shots?? I've seen a few so it seem like now that they are getting back what they have done for years they don't like it. I also heard Ethan tryed to punch Kerry in the pits. Are they just pissed off cause Kevin Roberts layed down for them but Kerry won't.. Good on Kerry I say many said they didn't see the flag. Even Bruce told me on Saturday that he is certain Kerry wouldn't have seen flag.. I too believe snz is responsible for some of this for the joke way they treated the Asher On Kerry incident... If they had of given a deserved penalty for that hit then it may have made a difference but instead they give a tiny fine.. (A joke really). Scott joblin is capable of doing anything Rees can do so it's not a loss to the panthers..

The protest by Asher on the night could/should have imposed an additional peanlty - M7-2-2 Report a competitor within seven days of the date of the offence to the Directors, for further possible penalty. This would've taken out any in house bias and left it in the powers that be. Who knows what would have transpired then.
Can't we all just get along

pretty sad when off track politics and ego,s get in the way of good old fashion teams racing! Social media has alot to answer for!! Im suprised that the rees camp have gone this way about it.... Peter has never been a fan of posting on any internet site... so i cant help but think the younger generation of driver need to pull their heads in and realise its a hobby and meant to be fun?  ? Threats of intent to harm just aint cool.. from ANYBODY!! perhaps its a case of a boy in a mans world?? |

Finally... superford and alleycat are actually (factually) talking sense!! The problem being it's speculation as to why they aren't racing. Once again another thread heading for the bin. People let's just wait for an explanation and then react to that. I understand the frustration though. |

Initially reading this thread I thought World War III had started. Then I thought the world was about to end given some of the postings.
Now I realise it's just two Superstock drivers not driving at one meeting for personal reasons.
Is this really worth an 8 page thread?
The show will go on, the Teams Champs will be a great meeting and the Panthers will probably still win.
