Sunday morning, I started toward the back.
Steve Elliott was on pole and with his magic starts he was odds on to take it,
Unfortunately ,as you can see, his car stranded between turn 3 and 4 the man upstairs said - another day Steve,its tough. Anthony Tenkate had his turn at winning this one.
I am running with Shane Wilson- ex kiwi from Wellington, after that its John English in Alwyn Bishops car

I would like to say a huge thanks to all the Historic Muscle Cars and Australian Trans-Am racers who wore our Muscle Car Digital Magazine stickers on their cars at the 2015 NZFMR. We really appreciate the gesture.

I'd also like to say a huge thanks to Steve Elliott for printing the stickers up and handing them out to the HMC/ATA guys. You're awesome Steve, and a true friend.

Thanks to everyone involved with HMC for making us Aussies feel so welcome at the Festival over both weekends. I was flat out getting everything ready to leave Sunday afternoon that I didn't have much of a chance to go around to many of you. If you have any footage from Races 8 or 9 (Sunday, Weekend 2) and would like to be seen n the TV3 highlights show, could you please email me at mailto:?subject=&body= to discuss further.
I will post some photos/wrap-up etc soon but I still have plenty of work to do in the meantime.
Cheers

Check this out guys. A brilliant video put together by Dewi Jones of the Historic Muscle Car/Australian Trans-Am action at the first weekend of the 2015 NZFMR. Its about 15 minutes long, and includes racing and driver interviews. Its an excellent job. Turn the sound up.
