Congrats to Scotty Lane, well done, good solid performance from foxy as well with the new car... the models racing were quite a laugh.... it was only practice laps when 1 ended up on the lid!!!

yep. i picked scotty lane from the start to win it and he flew. in between races 2 and 3 he even had to send crew to his workshop in takanini to pick up his spare wing as something went wrong with the one he had despite winning race 2. also very dissapointing to see everybodys idol steve williams throw a tanty during prizegiving saying something along the lines of 'ill never be back to race in auckland again'. he got 2nd in the auckland champs and i could happily be proven wrong (and apologies if i am) but i believe it had something to do with roy walker who got 3rd. i know people believe hes a saint and all and yes he does do a lot for snz in general but in my opinion that was one of the worst cases of 'sore loser' i have ever seen. i may cop a bit of flack for this post but again if people prove my thoughts to be wrong i will gladly apologise for this 'outburst'

Racing was good. Good Turn Up of Cars in all classes:
Super Stocks had 9 Locals and 4 visitors from Huntly Saloons had about 17 or 18 Stockcars had about 15 or so Ministocks had 26 Modifieds had 13
A good nights Racing
Auckland Saloon Champs:
1st Phil Towgood, 2nd Steve Williams, 3rd Roy Walker
Auckland Modified Champs
1st Scott Lane, 2nd Brian Jesson, 3rd Jamie Fox
Sidecars WON by the Palmerston North Bike with BLUE WIG on Swinger ;D
A good end to 2008 roll on 2009 with January 17 first meeting with Auckland Stockcar Champs.
.......... and yes Steve Williams did say that in the club rooms, which was very dissapointing as it was SNZ not ASSCC who held up results. I hope that Steve has a change of Heart and does return to the City of Sails this season.

I hope that Steve has a change of Heart and does return to the City of Sails this season. thanks aaron for clearing that up. so he was moaning just because of help up results? i think its better to hold them up and make sure they are correct than rush around with uncertainty. still really unimpressed with his behavior though

When she lost control by the pit gate I think she simply forgot to take her foot off the accelerator. For someone who probably has never been in a stock car before thats not an easy task when things start to go wrong. It certainly was a fair whack into the wall.
Does anyone know why she wasn't allowed back out? The announcer said SNZ wouldn't let her out .

well lets get back on topic !
I wasn't there as I have said the same thing as steve "I won't go back to wp"
but what upset you the fact that a driver showed he was pissed off and said "he won't be back" or the fact that that driver was steve williams. who people seem to think that is different than the rest of us,
"steve just another bare bum in the shower"
