Obviously can’t happen with every meeting, but what a huge step forward it is for the referee to have instant access to a replay of an incident to help get to the correct decision. The Pits do a fantastic job

Bursons shoulder cleared of any break, but still in hospital as one side of his body is numb which could be as simple as a pinched nerve or potentially a fracture in his back

Hypermac does it again. Shows what confident drivers can do with their cars. Well done to all drivers that finished the feature. Hard luck to those that didn't make the feature.

My thoughts on the weekend - Bouquets to Woodford Glen club, all the drivers, Dan Corrin for sportsmanship and mostly to the grader driver who gave all the chance to put on a great show.
Brickbat to 98m who was way out of his depth and did lots of damage. Kevin Moore may have been slow but at least he held his line. Someone is going to get seriously hurt if we don't address the speed differential issue. I accept the right for all to compete but not when it compromises competitor safety.

Secondly 98m wrecked alot of other peoples gear. Surely there is a rule to exclude a driver who causes multiple accidents.

Agree the black flag could have been used in just about every race he competed in. I wish we could have black flagged the weather also. Everything else great. So impressed with so much 3 wide passing awesome. The winner was also the track preparation crew they deserve a medal ( gold to the grader driver).

The Pits do a fantastic job Did they?? Didnt pick up on Dan Corrin he had to stop as they were making the wrong call. Also missed a couple of other calls. Could see a few (lots) red shirts in the middle and in the crowd plus with instant replays should not have been any mistakes.

It caught the 6c spinning, but not the contact by 124m. If the ref didn't see it live, there' was no way you could ping the 124m from the replay. There was some distance between the two cars when the 124m went out of shot. It appeared as if 6c spun up all by himself. Barry B

Congrats to Woodford Glen, DEBBIE WEBSTER and The Pits TV. Taking the plunge on the big screen was a huge success on Friday and Sunday night for obvious reasons with showing interviews and pit damage etc. Interviews to the crowd via audio are good but when you can see who the person is and can see them talking it's another level of entertainment but the repocharge interview with Bill Clarkson Jr was the big one for me. Explained clearly there and then for all the fans to see and hear. This stuff should be the benchmark for championship meetings in the future so congratulations to everyone who made it happen. Not sure about everyone else but if my ticket went from $35 to $40 but I knew there was a big screen with live interviews I would be more than happy to part with the extra $5 for top class super saloon racing and the experience the big screen brings
