experince is one part of it. reading a race is another part. i would perfur the later over the first one. so for that reason i'll say hawkeyes have a chance. and mustangs will finish higher than the panthers this year.

wow you really discount a whole 5 other teams! Would that be because i left your belovered tigers out? I think their team make up is wrong, Having both Gray and Cunningham on track forces Harwood to run which isnt his best role imho although interested to see how Taylor goes on the big stage. I left 5 out who i think will struggle to challenge for the title but for completeness sake Christchurch has the potential to upset or fall apart dramatically, unsure which way they will go GB have pace but still feel they struggle to read and adapt to the situation Stratford is an interesting proposition who i think will lose close races Rotorua has a changing of the guard and needs time to gell So Buster what are your thoughts? and not just your blindly one eyed tiger ones |

Here my logic which im sure teams will disprove  Panthers - someone needs to stand up and replace Scott Miers in the blocking role. Most likely Bengston or Jack Miers Giants - Strong team hard to go past. Gav blocking could be most crucial member Mustangs - Lots of experience but cant see them winning, no real established blocker. Jordan to step up and be best on track for them Busters - Experience with a few but Hunt is a worry. Will miss Mike Mac this season Hawkeyes - Good cars but 3 rookies to Palmy teams champs is a concern. Feel hopes lie with Mac and Long Wildcats - Proven stockcar teams experience but will that correspond over. Warriors - Team of big name hitters but feel cars wont last for them to have a real crack at the title Its all draw dependent but my head says the winner will come from Gissy Panthers with HB my outsider. Heart says Baypark HB final better finish what he started lol rebels - gone away from a team with down and out pace, to a very hard hit man team, this team looks to be a dark horse no body is talking about. wouldnt write them off just yet. some smart big hits could see them get a long way. tigers - a great mix of block and runners and guys that can do both. with alot of experince. this is a very good team. will the draw be more favourable this year to them? lions - aint afriad to use the bumper. know how to hit. will they balance hitting with running this year. as ever always out do there expecations. great list of drivers this year as well. eagles - lot of interputions. but will leave everything out on track. doesnt look as strong as some of the other teams. but to field a team shows heart. wolnt die wondering thats for sure. scrappers - gonna be honest proably the weakest team team here this weekend. i dont think they have a chance. but are a pround team and will try. just dont think it will be enough. sorry scrapper fans. just not this year. hope they prove me wrong. |

na i disagree the 2004 hawkeyes were the best team in there history. [b excuse my ignorance but who was it that team? And why didvthey not win? cant name all 5, but can name four shane penn, paul demasnor, murry long, shane warner. or was it the 05 team. that had both bryce penn and shane penn in it. why didnt they win? beaten by a better team. proably the best team to ever take the track. |
