I'm sure many of you have seen William's new car already. What are your thoughts on it? SuperSprint should be the new name

Very fast pace at Oceanview Very interesting that all 5 are Rees chassis in some form being older or newer or Petes design or Ashers. Love them or hate them they have been leading the way with multiple different drivers the last few seasons.

Yes & no..i see some very expensive Tri-Rails & other chassis with very experienced drivers not able to run the lap times these guys are doing.

It’s amazing what time can do.
Since Pete has retired from the stockcar class the superstocks just keep getting better given he has a little more head space to think creatively about what he wants to achieve.
People see the exterior but he’s doing some very interesting things ain’t his suspension to get all that HP to the ground, and around the corners as fast as possible.
Another backyard engineer who built a few cars said it was all about getting around the corner fastest.
I think Pete’s only addition is on the pole line!

Announcement from the Red Waka Team
"These's been a delay with the design & building of our new Ford V8 Superstock engines which has put us in a "hold position" but we'd rather not rush this exercise as we're along way from our engine builders and they need to be 110% perfect but they've been Dyno'd and were happy with the results (y) The good news is our engines will be touching down next week in NZ and our crews are ready to tackle the tasks sheets and have all 3 Superstocks up and running quick-smart.
We have registered to race at these events to get us on the gas and ready for the major events in Jan/Feb and don't worry, the pilots are already, ready like pitbulls on a chain.....haha!! - P/North Friday 29 Nov: King of the Arena: Best Pairs Superstocks - P/North Saturday 30 Nov: King of the Arena: Best Pairs Superstocks - Wanganui Sunday 01 Dec: Charlie Trophy - P/North Saturday 07 Dec: NZGP (Superstock) - Wanganui Sunday 08 Dec: Superstocks - P/North 14 Dec: Manawatu Superstock Champs
We'll see you trackside within the next few weeks but until then, I'll be working or at the beach!! 😝🏖"

I see 6 Nelson cars entered could be enough to start a team comeback.
