Ko ngā toa taumata, ko ngā Rebels o Rotorua i te Rotorua Stockcar Club , whakaporo riaka i roto i te Ariki!! Ahakoa e haere koutou i te Superstock Teams i Palmy Speedway, kāhore koutou i wehi i te kino, nā ta mea ko te patu me te taiaha o te Atua hei whakatiaki koutou katoa. E Nick, ko te rangatira o tēnei ope, ringihia tonu i te Wairua Tapu ki runga i tōu māhunga, ae, ki runga i ou koutou māhunga! Kotahi, e rua, e toru, ā, e wha ngā hoariri kua hinga i te taha koutou, kāore koutou i te hinga. E Pa, tonoa i tōu kaha me tōu mana. Ko te ingoa a Ihu Karaiti!
Amene

Uncle Google translator interpreted your fine words of wisdom to:
"The winners level, and the Rebels of Rotorua in Rotorua Stockcar Club, whakaporo strain in the Lord !! Whether you go the SUPERSTOCK Teams in Palmy Speedway, not you fear the worst, as is the club with the taiaha of God whakatiaki you all. Nick, the commander of this unit, poured out the Holy Spirit on your head, even if you are on your head! One, two, three, and four opponents have fallen by you, not you in the fall. Father, send your strength and your power. The name of Christ!
amen"
Is that about right brother?

Awesome Go Slideways! It's always challenging to translate from Māori to English and I'm always learning! Here's is my translation:
“Those superstock drivers reaching towards the pinnacle (of courage and skill) of the RSS, be strong in the Lord and His mighty power! Even though you are going to the superstock teams at Palmy speedway, fear not, for the weapons of warfare (club and spear) of God (supreme) will protect and guide you all! Nick, the commander of the group/unit, pour out (receive) the Holy Spirit on your head (for wisdom) and the heads (for wisdom) of the Rebels. One, two, three and four opponents have fallen beside you but not you in the fall! Father send your strength and your power In the name of J-esus Christ!"
I do like Uncle Google’s translation “as is the club with the taiaha of God” possibly meaning the Rebels are the taiaha (spear of warfare, showpiece, pride and joy) of the Rotorua Stockar Club! Thanks again GS and all the best at the teams event!

Update today by phone from Nick Beazley, Manager Rotorua Rebels: "The team worked well Sat night at Paradise Valley helping Steinie to win the BOP superstock champs. For the first two races the boys set up their cars, then for the third race Mark told them to block for Steinie and they did! It was a great meeting! There are many people to thank at this initial stage of our campaign (as always) the Rotorua Stockcar Club, Ian Elsworth for his awesome support and most of all the partners and wives of the Rebels drivers who work tirelessly behind the scenes including raising money through Rebels merchandise and 50/50 raffles. The boys are 110% committed and the feeling is good! Thanks for all your support”

From Nick Beazley, Manager Rotorua Rebels: "I'm super proud of the guys, it was a tough weekend for us and but i'm optimistic this Rebels team have got the making of a good team. Congratulations to the Hawkes Bay superstock team - amazing win and to the other top two placings - GB Lions and Panthers! There are many thank yous; firstly to the Robertson Holden International Speedway for putting on a fantastic show, to Rob Miers Machinery Specialists who without him we could not have gone on to night two; Rob is the simply the best host a team could ask for! As always the pit crews who were just amazing, our valuable sponsors many thanks, and finally to all our supporters who continue to believe in the Rebels cause from everyone who brought a 50-50 raffle or Rebels apparel to texts and phone calls of support - thank you! Oh Dale is resting well and bouncing back! Auckland teams champs is looking really promising!"

Rebels seem to go through a lot of drivers or some come go come back if they can keep at least a core 3 or 4 each season for a while would be in their best interests
