[dave37b]

my name is David, I am 35yrs old or young. My home track is Meeanee, & I live in Napier. I have been involved in speedway for quite a number of years. I have written for NZDTR, Motorsport Central & the Meeanee Speedway Club. I have crewed for a few different people. I find I get the most enjoyment out of the crewing side. I have raced dwarf cars,(refer www.hbspeedway.co.nz for info). I am currently peddling a Holden Commodore streetstock, which I am having some real good fun in. but just to be part of the big speedway family is great.

Guess i might as well add to the thread..

My name is matt and i have just bought myself a std stock.

At the moment it is still being put together but i will be running a 3.8l buick v6 througha hq gearbox to a toyota diff.

Am having a few problems being that i have never done this before but i am sure i will get there. I am registered as of today at baypark as 13m.

Gidday, My name is Pete Muckle.
Started in speedway in 1982 crewing on an Ex Jago VW saloon car.Got the taste for racing by driving on a club day and got roped in as part of the original 6 TQs to start running out of Nelson.
Have run 2 Stockcars,3 Modifieds(Had the first ever Nelson registered Mod) and just finished some more seasons in a TQ since then.
Am a bit daunted and jaded with Speedway at present but the inspiration comes from this board as I know there are heaps of people who adore the sport.
GOOD ON YA!!!!!!!!!

Thank you,thank you very much...........Pete has now left the building!!!

[Yaz (NZ Stockcar Crazy!!)]

Cool idea, thumbs up to the person who came up with this idea! ;D It's good to be able to read about other members of the board.

I'm Yaz, better known as NZ Stockcar Crazy!! I'm 19, and live in Auckland. My home track is Waikaraka Park, however I have been known to venture around the country to various meetings, and this season has seen my Dad and I do some travelling!

Most of you will know me for my site, NZ Stockcar Crazy!!, as well as NZSC, I also do the Waikaraka Park website which I took over this season, as well as the following driver websites: A.M.B.S Racing - Minisprints 27A & 76K, Danny Bell Motorsport - Stockcar 69R, and Reece Salmon - Production Saloon 89H.

I went to my first meeting when I was 6mths old, but started going regularly to speedway with my Dad when I was 5! I started NZSC when I was 13 (NZSC turns 6 years old next week).

Since then I have also pit crewed for Stockcars 19A Shane Bessant and also 32A Grant King. I have occasionally pit crewed for others since then, washing the odd car here 'n' there!

These days however, I pretty much do my websites and you can usually spot me somewhere at a track, camera in hand! ;D
