We could have a group meeting, you know the type, where you stand up and say "My name is Paul and I'm a Magoraholic"

Going 2 get smashed here, but have almost tired of chasing superstocks around. They don't hit enuff for my liking and the last few world 240's I have attended have failed to inmpress. May attend on Sat just in case, but not holding out much hope Kia ora, Hmmm... Lots of paybacks due from the NZ champs. Smaller track to do it on even though the cars do over 120khph. English team that has to practice team tactics and blocking. Two years ago was the best final in history with at least 4 cars circulating slowly on the prowl. 1NZ, 2NZ and 3NZ there this year all from South Island. No North Island cars on the podium for the NZ Champs. Hmmm... No stay at home because there might not be any seats available for you anyway. Especially stay home on Saturday night because that's the only night I can make it and I'd hate to lose a seat to someone who didn't really want to be there. Perhaps you could ask Stan for a ride in the two seater to see what the smashing you are talking about feels like for drivers and then you may have more appreciation of why it does not happen as frequently as people like yourself would want it to happen, let alone the expenses involved. Is that a good enough smashing for you Sonic?? You said you were expecting it so I would hate to see a fellow Mac gorian disappointed. On the other side of the coin I hope you change your mind and go both nights cause it is shaping up to be a great one!! Green flags and green lights

Thanks Ngahihi.
I know my opinion differs to most in the I love super stocks club, I am not asking for cars to be wound off the end. I just think sum could use their bumpers more to change the out come of a meeting.
I would love a ride with Stan. If you could arrange that I would be there in a flash.

Kia ora Sonic 33 Believe me I would love to oblige and organise a ride in the two seater for you. I would even have a word to Stan to give you the teams racing version. However unfortunately for you I am too busy trying to save my hard earned money to live the dream and one day drive a superstock of my own - to pay for other peoples joy rides! Nice try though! Green flags and green lights one day - but only if I save for it.

Well, I'll be up bleary eyed at 5.30am to enjoy the show 12,000 miles away. C'mon the Brits!! I hope we have a little 'trial' teaming at Rotovegas and bring the 240 back to the UK again.

I'm really looking forward to this event
A full field of Superstocks at Paradise Valley is always worth the trip but it's the support programme that has me salivating. The meeting is absolutely jam packed with entertainment and variety.
Hopefully the TAB get some odds out soon...
