This is the bullshit thaty needs to stop , the suits aren't losing any money this week are they . Exactly! No bloody accountability at all. If 90% of the people posting here could see that the grass was too long then why couldn’t the track manager? I actually commented to my mate when watching the interview with the track manager that given the length of the grass and the “light rain” (which according to Balcomb came out of left field ) they may have issues. Depressingly this just gives the northern focussed NZTR another reason to shift CD Group races. nomates, Ragamuffin, chevy86 and 3 others 4 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomates 4,967 Report post Posted September 28 I wonder what they are going to do with this meeting , they really should move the whole remaining card , but where and when , Te Rapa or Otaki are the only 2 real obvious choices but I can't see the northerners travel to Otaki , going to be interesting .
