Awesome reply Hornet...Murray & Jason have done amazing things for Hawkeye's & Meeanee...there's obviously plenty going on behind the scenes here. Big lost to the Bay big gain to the Giants.

So how do you feel about that one HB Hornets , a Bay registered car heading to race for Gisborne.. Neither here or there. He isnt deflecting for money. So not bothered. After all they have done for the Hawke eyes. When you achieve what you set out to achieve. What is there left to achieve? I tip my hat to the man. Stand out Reply HbHhornet Good on ya mate

Exactly right there , father and son have been great for Hawkes Bay . As said a valuable cog in the Hawkeyes wheel lost and a bonus to the Giants . At the end of the day its no different to anyone else jumping ship ....

Any issues within the Bay Team, or just wants to help another team win. Seems strange, but I am happy with that from a Gizzy point. He will boost the team heaps.

I Was in the Grandstand last year when they won And there was some Off the cuff comments on track about Who was doing a lap of honor Or something to that effect <anyway they were not that happy, but bottom line its about the make up of the team. i do know the two people involved but to be fair to the Champs its there Busisness

Yeah the Long comment is a bit of a slap down ,there is more to it than that?? I have to agree there is nothing on the Giants FB page about cryed for help so you have made yourself look silly stating that go29 Sorry my bad it's on the Rees Race Cars page. God I look so silly. www.facebook.com/reesracecars/?ref=ts&fref=ts

I tip my hat to the man. if that was the criteria for moving teams then Hemi, Bengston and Joblins would have moved teams years ago and what of Scott Miers ? the chance of a threepeat was not enough of a lure ? its one thing to fill in for a team that is short on numbers, its another to (according to Rees) actively seek out another team. i would suggest the team with the most plastic makeup this year has a G on the side. Its great having these guys at the event and it will add heaps of spice especially if they draw the Bay (rigged draw please Bruce - lol !) but if ever there is an example of the influence of track politics in speedway the Giants is it.

I see Nelson a looking for sponsors/money to help with their expenses for this event. I have also heard of other teams requesting funds as well. Why don't all the teams get together and go to the Palmy Promoter and request for extra funding to participate in this meeting. After all the gate taking would be in excess of 1 1/2 million and if the teams didn't turn up their wouldn't be any event. It is the Palmy Promoter that is making the big $$ out of this and the teams should all be paid enough to cover their expenses and some extra as well.

It will be interesting to see if Long is a Giant only for Palmy or will stay on for Teams Nationals in Auckland where the Giants are the raining champs. Hes a great addition to the team & reads a Teams race very well.

I thought V was looking good to field a team, with Shaun Pearson, Scooter, Dion Money and half a dozen other regular racers in the class. Why would A be struggling? Dean Mulholland, Bryce Marx, Scott Tennant and Brad Ridland have always seemed to be more about teams than individual racing, must have been at least 8 others racing that could fill a spot. If the current owner of the Silver Bullet isn't sure on the All Stars one could suggest the car has been in so many teams races in may take the driver along with a will of its own Hold your horses until the start of next week. There's a lot of work going on behind the scenes to get the Warriors back to Teams Champs. hiya is there any update at all on the warriors team

There's a lot of work going on behind the scenes to get the Warriors back to Teams Champs. hiya is there any update at all on the warriors team It was said on the Oceanview facebook page today that Friday night would be running Supers as a support class and that by then there would be news about the Warriors. My guess that would be classed as someone's 1 meeting befor teams champs. ie 54V Bevan Humphrey? my guess is 6V Dion Mooney, 22V Scooter, 112V Shaun Pearson and 54V
