This was a great result in a top field including two of Australias top drivers who came over to NZ for this event.
The motor he used was my own MG66 that I gave him to use for this event, and it had already run two club meetings and a 3 day national event just prior to this event. All I did was change the rod and check the original bearings before I passed it on to him. What a sweet motor !!!!
Another top driver who runs a new GX 5 Port in his truggy was kicking butt in the Truggy final when his battery died. By the time he got back out he was just too far behind to get back up for a podium, but the motor was spectacular to watch in the truggy. The new GX 5's are very strong
Still recovering from the celebrations, but it was all worth it to see GO engines put firmly on the map as a top contender here in New Zealand.
Do you have any results or info on what happened over there for the nats in nz ? couldnt make it over from aussie sorry but definatly tried too, damn work. And what aussies went over ?
