Don't upset SNZ by letting them in on this secret. The Mad Butcher who is sponsering the event wants 200 cars at the Demolition Derby at Waikaraka Park scheduled for 27th March 1999. One race, 200 starters, but don't tell the powers that be, they were not happy with the way the club ran the 130 car derby on the 6th February.
As people who know me will vouch I never make mistakes or tell lies. I just give opinions and make predictions that are immediately proved wrong!
The following will be confirmed on Friday 19th.
The teams at Palmerston North will be grouped thus;
Waikato, Palmerston North, Christchurch.
Manawatu Masters, Blenheim, Bay of Plenty.
Wellington, Nelson, Auckland All Stars.
Stratford, Rotorua, Hawkes Bay.
