It was 100% because he was taken out in the said local event. And you know this how ?? Did you ask the said driver himself why he changed clubs ? His choice at the end of the day .gotta love keyboard warriors who think they know everything |

There's no need to belittle any driver. They've all got more commitment and balls than 99.9% of the people on the internet, and getting to race where they want, when they want and how they want (not everybody is cut out for teams racing) is part of what they do.

The way i think about it is abit like Super Rugby, players change clubs for more game time and better oppotunitys. You only get one lifetime and you are only in the game for so long. No good being on the sidelines waiting for a shot when you could be out there doing it elsewhere. Its all very well being the one club hero but sometimes you have to put you best interests first to grow as a driver.
Some people are quick to drive the knife into your back without looking at the bigger picture

9G,144G,4K,58K,136P,85G,87G,89G just to name a few, we could go on forever.
Things changed a lot back when Palmy attracted many top drivers from all over the North Island.
Things have since had a big shift and many drivers are now contracted to Clubs that are away from where they live.
Their money, their racing Career, their choice.

Reply to Holden 65. No I am not the said driver but I am sure about the reason.
Take it for what it is worth.
Have a good day.
Obviously Roxy knows it as much as I do

That is last season, there is only ten left from that list. What happened to 141S Lance Mitchell? He was a very regular attendee then suddenly disappeared. Other than 99S/K who else is not there this season from that list? |

Im not sure who is available for the Scrappers this year but im sure the following could do us proud 28s Blair Uhlenberg 85s Brad Uhlenberg 82s Hamish Booker 33s Logan Sharpe 54s Paul Johnson 37s Shane Denham 6th Driver Bevan Phillips Am I dreaming....... I dont think so you have 6 cars so Bevan would be 7th driver. I'd pick 28s 33s 61s 82s 133s and 85s as sixth driver |
