I'm not entirely sure how too read that. Is it referring to single racing or teams racing? After palmy teams when we headed up to Auckland I was told that I was going to be targeted every race. I'm ok with that and I know this season will be no different in teams. The other team members made it so easy for me to get around the track by blocking the other cars so all the credit should be directed that way! We worked as a team which is all you can ask for in my opinion, we all got on and even the crews got on and if any car needed more people they were more than happy to jump over.
We won't be doing as much individual racing this year as we are very limited on what $$ we have in the wallet.
Cheers

So with Scotty doin just super who will fill the gap in the alleycats? The boys in the City Sinnerz did pretty well against the hawks, and do we need someone with abit of mongrel/aggresion (but not ott) in the team?

It means you are not just one of the numbers making up the field, it means you have shown your ability so that people take notice when you are on the track - individual or teams. Hope you can get to the Big ones ie NZs, 240s etc |

First off I'd just like to agree with what carl said. Last years team was awsome and the fact everyone got on made it even better. I'm very proud to say I was an allstar.. Now my plans?? Yes car has been sold to Alec Wilson in palmy. After a very good season with the team and winning all clubs points and a 3rd at king of the park and a 3rd at Auckland champs in my first season, it was sad to see the car go. Especially as my whole life I'd dreamed about driving a superstock one day. And teams racin is what I love the most. But that's the way the cookie crumbles when you don't own the car ya self. I have a couple of options on the table at the moment. Another superstock or maybe another year with the alleycats, I still undecided what I want to do. At the moment I'm just enjoying being a new dad and not being in the shed every spare chance I have. After 15 years straight racing I'm getting near the end of my time anyway so we will play things by ear, but I'd say il do 1 more year ( hopefully in a superstock) before I hang the helmet up..
