80k engine? Who told you that. alright i may be exaggerating,but still there is a gap  Talk to Randy T and Regan O'brien about budgets. It certainly wasn't $$ that won the title this weekend. |

sitting next to a group of ashburton fans,one said to me p or g will win it,they have the quickest drivers,i said to him they have the most $$$$,he said but in that last race both teams were running a toyota,yet one driver was way quicker than the other,i said one driver has got say a $30,000.00 motor the other $80,000.00,that is the difference,it,s not talent that makes you inferior,money does,the response was, is that right know all,ah ah aaah   my summary, teams with the most expensive machinery will always win the teams,they expect to be @ the top, or on podium,where as some teams with a lot less cash are happy to come away with a race win  80k engine? Who told you that. Its a fact that there are superstock motors out there with that sort of money invested in them. |

It's not money that won the teams... Its able to read the track, and see where your opponents are. 557c for instance left himself vulnerable to that hit.
Experience counts, not $$$.

In my opinion you need three things to win teams.
1. Experience both drivers and crew
2. Reliable gear
3. About 80 percent luck

It certainly wasn't $$ that won the title this weekend. not money just bad luck for the giants that won the Hawkeyes the title Yes the Hawkeyes only won because the Giants had bad luck in their Semi and raced their final a race early. A bit like the Hawkeyes last year.. went into the final a bit second hand. |

Oh beachy, I know of at least 2 recent former racers that easily spent $100k+, so no doubt others out there likewise. One teamed raced. Both used the same builder. |

there goes the theory that tri rails hurt drivers and the Rees chassis are a lot softer on drivers. Hamilton doesn't run a rees chassis. His is a leech motorsport built car built as a tank they were a better ride but the spanks are a totally different car |
