QUOTE(Thumpin' 8 @ Jul 18 2008, 07:26 AM) [snapback]1282622306[/snapback] Ask centre management if you can put whatshisname and somebloke's car from sports compact in the centre for some advertising and they are gonna say "who"???? Then ask to put Victor and Ben Brays cars in there and they are gonna say "Gladly".... There was no educating. The cars were on display, no-one was there when I walked past except a TV playing some local racing so there was no education going on, except they were here and Night of Thunder was on. Same whinge, same story, different day. just asking a question,how is that whinging? at least im willing to stand up and ask to see a change,i find that hardly whinging. as for the centre management they let the PC boys in,so why wouldnt they let some sportcompact boys in? anywayz...im over bashing my head against a brick,will just fly south to see the racing,and let the president of the hidden valley v8 drag racing association bring up the same acts each year. cheers |

What an awesome night of racing at the Southern Cross Television Night of Thunder! A packed crowd witnessed Ben Brays first ever run at HV in his Monaro crack the track record at a 6.62 @ 191 mph! Laura Kuss out run Ben on his next run, Local Matt Abel beat Victor in a spine raising run. |

Do you not know Tony Wedlock? You should came from your side of the sport and switched fields. Meh what ever was a good night pitty we did not get to see the biggest name do a full pass. I spoke to alot of people that said it was a let down and alot of people that said the night did not move along quick enough massive waits between races. But that is their opinions i am sure others had different ones. I for one thought it was good and loved seeing the Local guys comeout on top. Got some good video. Bring on NT titles. Brad and Ken will be great to watch i reckon. Well if Ken would man up and put the T04z on it with bigger injectors fuel pump and the 250 shot of Gas. We say bye bye most other street cars in Darwin. |

Now on to more important things about THE EVENT. What did people think of other aspects of the night and what can be improved on? Things like was there enough food outlets, were the kids rides well received, were there any incidents or things to fix for next time.....or better yet, were there any things you loved that we should DEFINATELY do again can you do the no oil downs part again??  overall it was a good night, pitty the weather couldnt be cooler, it almost became a true night of thunder at about 2pm with the rain clouds hangin about. You already know about the sign (not on list) i want on the top gate!! Need to have the same kinda night for titles and it would just top the year off nicely!! |
