Repechage. 26 cars to find 1. Some of those mentioned will not make the next 26 I wouldn't think. Barry B Hadn't realised Asher missed when I wrote that, lol. I'll let you off. It's late  Barry B |

From comments I’ve read Ron Tye took out Asher Rees and one of the Chch cars took out Peter Rees Yeah Ron took Asher out and Darrel Wallace took Pete out - or so I read  Cameras caught Ron on Asher, after Asher pointed Ron to the concrete exiting turn 4. Well times hit into turn 1. Didn't see the second hit mentioned. Cameras missed that one I think. Other than a few cross-over issues to the pits - The Pits interviewers in the pits - was that the cameras outside of the track, particularly on the action-packed turns 1 & 2, became focus-locked onto the extra high Wanganui catch fencing in the foreground, instead of the cars in the background, it appeared their fences were just too high to shoot over the top of. The venue looked superb, and let's just hope the wind drops so they can prepare a more racey track for the finals. Barry B |

Just got home after the Top 25 presentations and grid draw in the Clubrooms. Sleep is urgently needed, but after an awesome night's racing, the brain has to slow down first. I will post up the finals field with Heat One grids later in the morning.

Should make for decent repecharge tommorow, couple of Rees, few red waka cars too, plus a 371k maybe, that’s if he’s read the rule book by then and hasn’t been trailered 😂. Not sure what happened to 19c, running 3rd In heat 3 with a lap to go and finished 10th, maybe spun or got spun? 2NZ got hit hard in turn 2 by 557c which prevented 2NZ from qualifying. 19c got attacked by 85p which prevented 19c from qualifying. 126k got hit in turn 2 by 599p which prevented 126k from qualifying. A horrendously blustery windy night, but great racing and the action built up as the night went on. Congratulations to the qualifyiers and those who made the repecharge, commiserations to those who's night didn't pan out well. |

Didn't get to see the hits put in on the stream but it sounded like hitting a stationary 599P a couple of times which would have involved backing up

Seems he didnt learn anything from the teams meeting in Huntly.... I'm sure he got done for reversing and driving into a car multiple times up there as well.

Nope that was Sneddon in Huntly, for driving the wrong direction to roll Horse. Atleast the teams consistent tho 😉🤣 Seems he didnt learn anything from the teams meeting in Huntly....

Now that the event is gone and dusted, having followed the build up to , during the event and post event comments, Wanganui club and personal need to be high on the list in many sections for the 020 SNZ awards.
It has been a pleasure reading nothing but positive feedback and hopefully SNZ awards night you reap the benefits for your efforts.
