GRAND PRIX DECISION DOWN TO THE WIRE

[Parnelli]

When it’s being contested by ‘Toyota ‘ go carts , who gives a sh-- where it’s held ! Given the size of grids that we get for F5000’s then wouldn’t it be more honorable to the esteem names on the trophy to run it for a class that will attract paying spectators ? I for one, would travel to any track in the country to see a NZ Grand Prix for F5000’s.

Nice one,yes these-go carts as you have called them dont do it for me,thinking back did they not run f fords one year down south a race that had part one and part two in it because they had to stop for fuel.

Amen to that! Guaranteed full grid, plenty of noise and an equally large sized field failing to qualify = two grids! Second group running for the NZ plate!
Brilliant Parnelli.
