NZ Teams Championship – Night 1

Our first race was Against Stratford. FWJ blew 3rd gear on the start, he managed to get going almost a lap down. Finn got taken to the wall almost rolling over.

Danny took some good hits but broke the 5th link ripping the prop shaft off. Neil and FWJ worked well together to get FWJ home to take the win.

Back in the pits we didn’t have a lot of time to fix the damage and all the cars were struggling with problems. We were up against against last years winners, the Bay Park Brawlers.

FWJ got blocked by 2 off their drivers which finished the gearbox off. Finn’s prop shaft died, so it left Neil and Michael in the thick of it. Both drivers put up a good fight for the rest of the race. Neil got taken out with a couple of laps to go but Michael got a few good hits in and finished the race, which qualified us through to the second tier for tonight.

A lot of work for team GB today ready for the second night.
