As one of the first to question the Puma's selections, it behooves me to be one of first to compliment how well those selected did in representing their club.
Each and every member worked as a team and conducted themselves well on and off the track.
The newer drivers showed themselves worthy of their place in the team. Two stand-outs for me were Bevin Humphries who ran with wisdom as well as speed and Darrel Wallace who publicly displayed such good sportsmanship.
This group of drivers while not a team of champions yet, certainly have the makings of a champion team.
Hold heads up high Puma's.

Agreed knownotmuch, they came oh-so-close and proved the naysayers wrong.
Closest team to Wellington, and only team over the two nights that faced them and looked like they could've beaten them.
Great stuff!

The Pumas were awesome and should be a huge force to reackon with in the next few seasons. This is a young team with a master of teams racin in Pete rees at the helm to guide this team.
The team should hold their heads very high for an awesome effort
Well done guys

I agree, I was down on Puma faith leading up to the event. After last year's dissapointment & the earlier lack of form from the Teams invasion I was hoping they could restore some pride to the region.
They did that and more.. At the end of the day they chose the 6 best drivers for the team, and they were a championship performing team.
Its funny listning to some young gun supporters at the track after the race and they are screaming domination, sure they Young guns were too good, but hell only by the skin of there teeth. It was a puma mis-read that saw Dale get the lead back, making Pete rush in his desision's going round the outside, had they picked Dale out the 4 good chances they had, the title would be back home. Aside from that I thought the final was the best final in years!!!

I dont think it was their best team they could of selected(Pumas) but the team that was selected was for a specific way for them to race by parkes and they did a far better job than i thought they would the young guns though didn't panic kept their cool heads and turned the race around, experience won that final and a lttle luck as sometimes happens.
