19 starters confirmed. Will be officially on Wacky Park site soon.

1nz, 3nz, 4s, 4h, 5w, 6a, 6w, 7a, 8s, 10s, 11a, 29a, 36a, 55s, 56a, 64a, 77s, 78a and 121s.

All but 5 are!

All except 4h, 7a, 10s, 29a and 78a.

21a is heading down as well as 114w so possibly 16 cars heading down in total

Why doesn't that surprise me!

I really wish that one day a club will have the balls to say "sorry, cut-off date was X and you have missed it!" Teach these buggers a lesson!

No excuse for it really.

Great field good to see, should be an awesome nite. Hey can anyone tell me when 21a will be racing, I figured he wouldn't be racing this weekend as it is an official snz championship and he has run no meetings this year. It's cutting it fine before the New Zealand's as well. Come on Gazzer, get that hotrod out there. As for the entries, that is so typical. Agree with Jamo. Cut of date is cut of date. Still hope they all go down though. Roll on the 19th.
Ardy.
