Just bad timing coupled with the expense for some of our newer members.

At this stage, unless someone in the Nelson stockcar fraternity wins lotto, Nelson wont be sending a team. Besides, as far as i know an invite hasnt been offered anyway so it is a moot point.

Spot on AL, Alot of our guys are struggling just to get through a meeting and their heads are abuzz with what they learn each race. The class is yet to stand alone in Nelson and one teams event could seriously knock the class about for future meetings. No doubting there is some real class in the team and the whole class at present in Nelson and I dare say they would make theier presence felt but its early days yet for Nelson Stockcars and I for one never ever want a repeat performance of the Vipers disaster that was sent with the Tigers to Palmy.(Remember that wee box of bananas??)  The team needs to be well funded,well drilled and well supported before we race up against the likes of ChCh and then the NZ Stockcar Teams deal. Alot of work has already been done by Wog,Dave and Ron and this will pay off in the near future.I for one applaude what they have done.The Thunder deal needs to walk before it can run. In a perfect world,I would love to see the Tasman Thunder go to that event,win it and bring the deal to Nelson for the following season. It would be an event that even the Tigers could never do due to the Teams deal for them being stuck in palmy and Auckland.The rotation for the winners for the Stockcar deal is one that can only do great things for the class. We cant do that at present so until we can I feel the correct move has been made. When the times right,it will be right!!!  |

Shame that the Thunder aren't able to make it this time, maybe next time. When it happens it will be a good meeting & with Nelsons increasingly crowd pleasing awesome Stock Shock meeting, the Glen will be known as THE home for South Island Stockcar Teams racing!! Craig |

I do agree with you pete, our guys will just be dissapointed that they cant have some fun with your guys - the after match stuff is just as great too!!! Good bunch of guys in all teams etc. Oh & by the way, the NZ Stockcar teams will be coming to Chch before Nelson.... ;D ;D Craig |

LOL!!! ;D ;D The Teams deal in the South Island will be awesome because it wont be long that we can add Dunedin and Invers into the mix and THEN it will be a REAL South Island Teams event.One we havent had for way too long!! Besides the longer we wait for it to unfurl the bigger the car numbers get and it will give the likes of Team Woppit to get on track and into the ChCh Team. |

I guess when the new 21n moves on(Hell,could be the new 21n for 20 years yet???) I guess the old one will get worked on. The resto is spoken of often but the current 21n is pride of place at the moment. Like a fine wine it takes time!! |

Yes, we have had our small moments of contact over the very few(too short) years of my time as a Stocky pilot. Wols is one of the true gentlemen and real characters left in our sport and how he keeps enthused after all these years beats me!!  Must be something he drinks...........................  |
