A good turn out of cars today, 10 streetstocks and all local! 8 Stockcars, and 4 touring cars.
The streetstocks were out to play. Mike was back out in the hq wagon, and had it going good! Rangi went for a wild ride getting rolled by Hazel and Slick. Slick was back with reliable machinery for a change. Ryan and Swanie are improving all the time. Jono had a shocker, a day I think he would rather forget with little niggly problems haunting his day. Callum and Pop were in the stirring mood, taking shots at anything that moved.
The stockcars were more race focused today. Buck and Ethan opting to do hot laps insted of racing (due to the NZ's being next sat). Slick was flying, the only car to get into the 5 second lap times. Hazel took a lesson in flying, getting wound off pretty hard, ending up out of the track. Callum was going good, although had a few electrical glitches. Pop was turning some good laps, and taking shots where he could. Mike was going great, had an awsome battle with Slick, with the hunter becoming the hunted. Jono once again had a horrid run, but new car, new gear, can only improve from here.
Touring cars seemed to be the Mike benefit show, winning three of the four races. Probably would have won the other race too, but forgot to plug in the transponder... DOH!! Foong took a win and three 2nds in his supercharged porsche 911. Bryce took four 3rd placings in the insane brushless Suzuki Swift, and Ethan got four 4ths.
Good luck to Slick, Hazel, Buck, Ethan and Callum for the NZ Stockcar Champs, lets bring home another "NZ" for our club!
