This event does not claim to be a "NZ" event anywhere I can see and it's not an official SNZ championship. It's an event created by the Palmy promotion and just happens to be the most successful every year. Much as you might like to see certain teams there the promotion will decide what is best for the event to remain successful now and into the future. LOL. Macgor, as you are an administrator for this site you might want to edit the title of this thread.  Sorry, not trying to stir the pot anymore than has been done. lol Is it not called ENZED because they are the major sponsor? |

Nothing to do with SNZ apart for the refs. I know lets start talking about them now aye.... |

And don't forget about the draw. I bet it's rigged again this year too! It's always rigged. Every year it's rigged in a different teams favor, I believe this year is Hawkes Bay's turn. Last year it was rigged in favor of Whanganui, and they made it to the final. Next year is Christchurch. (No none of that is true) |

any team can have any colour. a team can even have different coloured cars in it, as has happened in the past. In the past yes, but I think you'll find the present days rules of entry state "matching bodywork". Barry B |

I think the Palmerston North Panthers were the first to have matching body colours, but this was before the Palmy Teams Champs (I think) and I think the Bay Park Busters were the first to have matching body colours in the modern era, but I might be wrong.. I'd be interested to know who the second team to take up matching colours was, or did everyone get on board all at once?
Seems "Teams Champs Historian" has been a bit quiet on here.. perhaps he'd probably know. I am genuinely interested.

The Baypark Busters were the first in "the modern era" (1992/93 season), yes, the Stratford Scrappers being the second 12 months later. I don't know who was first back in the "good ole days", I know the Panthers were black and there was the Pall Mall team 20 odd years before The Todd & Pollock team, but of note there was racing between NZ and Australia about 20 years before that again, and the New Zealand cars were black & white with a Kiwi on the car from photos I've seen, so that's likely where it all started, back in the 1950's.

What I dont get is..why was it ok to run 13 teams whatever year it was maybe 2011..& now we have a very exciting team top drivers all ready to go and represent their track and they are being held at arms length..how do they plan & sort sponsors etc..it wasnt that long ago we struggled to get the full 12 teams it was a real last minute juggle.

While there is a precedent for 13 teams there is also precedent for a willing team to be denied entry to have 12 teams. The 12 team/4 group format is by far the best and fairest. |

Also got many voices in my head, or many opinions..............
I am an Ex gizzy boy, and still, and always have loved when Gizzy cars do well on the national stage. They battle over the odds, and often have no support, as most smaller tracks can attest to.
I am not sure if I agreed when the Rees went to Gizzy, but found it really hard not to support the " G " team in Vegas last year. Ironically it was almost a Gizzy car being overweight that could have cost them the title. Now Gizzy has their name on the trophy, regardless of their origin. Whether that is wrong or right is each to their own
With the stocks each team has the right to be there.
However with the superstocks it is all up to the palmerston promotion. I suppose he has his reasons why and I understand that. However declined entry seems the wrong decision.
Lets face it, the Rees time in Gizzy is limited. I believe their deal with the club was two seasons. Have they been there more then 5 times in a season and a half? I doubt it. Will they continue as G cars next year? I doubt it. If given a spot at Palmy will I cheer for them? Yes, especially if the race Palmy. As always I support Bay Park and any team that races Palmy/Mustangs. That there is what makes this meeting every year. Gizzy vs Baypark final will be a win win situation.
As for Bruce, why not suggest we will grant you an entry to Palmy, but you need to commit to Auckland as well. Rather than tying them into a year plus deal at Palmy suggest in the same year they turn up for the teams nationals. It has been a meeting that struggles for teams due to location, and an extra team will help. I understand that Palmy teams champs is first, and there is an option for Gizzy to say they are injured, or cars broken, but at least if it was made known that Palmy was an option so long as Gizzy do Auck then it is all in the Rees/Gizzy camp.
Either way I don't think Bruce will loose much sleep, and rightly so. He holds the golden Goose.
Number one positive for Palmy is location. Mid NZ to get as many teams as possible. Auck and now Gizzy team numbers will struggle due to location.
