Just to clear the rule on reversing in teams racing. You may only reverse if your way is impeded or you are going in race direction, as the HB car was impeded against the wall he was allowed to reverse to get clear track, the gissy car that was holding him had clear track in front so was not allowed to reverse, in the first movement after the hb car reversed,the gissy car then had to wait, he can not reverse to better his position in which he did on several occasions.Hope this helps you all understand the ruling. It's ironic that the above incident I was talking about re getting it wrong was against the alleycats in Palmy even with a Protest SNZ got it wrong & it was Noel H who missed out on the points. Mate I don't envy the job of being a ref in these situations. I thought the blocking car was facing the concrete so he was quite within his rights to back up too. but I was sitting back a ways. Totally respect your call and interpretation. have fun tonight. |

Gisborne were the surprise package,and full credit to them. Watching Carlos was just magic. Rotorua went really well ,but against Palmy ,were simply outfoxed .Teams racing once again proved to be unpredictable at Huntly last night. Excellent format ,top racing and well organised meeting.

Go Auckland !!! ;D Without a doubt Carlos was king last nite and the two hits in the last race of the nite were amazing. I think everyone in the crowd looked at each other and thought flippin heck or similar ! ;D With a little help from their Palmy cohorts I can only see the palmy/manawatu/auckland team winning with Wanganui as the other finalist. If Billy and Carlos are in the Auckland team in Wgtn then bring it on !  |

Just realized that Palmy cant meet Wangas in the finals as they are racing against each other in the semis  ,thanks to reading gregobros exellent review and analysis on the nites racing on the notice board. As Greg said this meeting continues to get better and is certainly gaining a following ( who would miss tonite after going last nite ! ). He gave the meeting a 7 out of 10 but I would have to say that it was a 8 - 8.5 in our book. Given the nature of this meeting it would have been good to have a nicer and more commerorative programme than the std black and white. There could certainly be some great stories/profiles and photos to include particularly given the golden oldies and teams involved. Maybe for next season a Teams tshirt also ?, I am sure they would sell well. I know we would buy them ! Just a few minor quibbles in what was a excellent nites teams racing was the support classes as Greg alluded to ( maybe only two given the time it took to get through the nite ). For me drop the TQs as they take a while to get going and the first race took absolutely ages to finish last nite. The other was the commentators. When they are talking about racing they are excellent, informative and entertaining. When the chatter between them seemed to be continuosly about cold cups of coffee then I am left hoping someone can hand me a remote so I can push the mute button ! Gentleman, please stick to the racing and the banter can be around that. You certainly do that well. Like I say minor quibbles and if last nite is anything to go by then bring on tonite. Cant wait !  |

Finals waikato v rotorua Manawatu v Wanganui Gisborne had a car relegated fron the result for a couple of illegals teams racing incidents, it was a fair call and one the referees thought long and hard about. That allowed Rotorua to qualify. Boooooo. any tips on what the illeagle move was??? Gizzy the stars on the night. A hue upset, tho still not as big as 3 Kihikii kings beating 4 panthers in auckland. Just a reminder to the minor few that constantly rubbish me on here the three Kings were MadMarty 29K Grant Mytton 28K and Tony Wootton 27K. The stars at Huntly though are every member of every team 100 percent committment, and the least favoured team Gizzy very good showing . As I said the other day all teams looked good and thats the case. |
