And the winner of the ugly duckling award goes to........ 53p kevin roberts supertanker  ? na keep picking, there's uglier ducklings out there than this one.. ..looked to me like it was trying really hard to look cool at the 2011 NZ Superstock Champs recently. Kevin drives it like a tank should be driven too.  |

I don't know much about this tank or its driver but he looked like he was having fun at the 2011 NZ Superstock Champs.  |

I'd like to know more about Kevin Roberts 53p tank, how old is it, where it was built, is it Ford powered?
Any pictures of it the last time it was teams racing be great too.

This Tank was a handful for the BayPark Busters the year Mustangs won the final drove through a few of them causing massive damage before Horse finally parked it up the wall in turn 2. Any1 got any photos of that race? Was the begging of the end for the Busters i think from memory??

Will be great for Gissy to have them both out there-will make it 3 once Sams is ready ;D Been out a few times this season. Did the Classic until Brett Lloyd drove into the rear end while I was sitting in turn 4. (reason why Brett couldn't do teams) Stoved the rear in and rippled the floor . Rebuilding Harvey's old one at the mo. Peewee has supplied the Toyota axle and HRP have done the bellhousing and firewall for the Marsh Rover. Will be running auto. Things are slow at work, so may be later this season. Bishops might be back next season with Dirty Dave as pilot. Will be narrowing rear end and putting a bottom sub frame in this time. Got the front handling heaps better. |
