Just had this come back from Jamie McCarthy at Telesport.


Hey Scriv,

I don't know if you have the SKY Airtimes for Taupo. Ian was supposed to send you them but he isn't sure 100% if he did or not!

The first one was supposed to go to air yesterday, but SKY f'ed up, and it didn't play. They just rang and told me not five minutes ago. It was their fault, and they'll give it extra plays to make up for it. I'll let you know when those will air later on today hopefully.


Regards, Jamie

Yes they are.
We will send them out to the addresses that you supplied with your entry.

Unfortunately they are not what we had exactly hoped for. We were told they would be as per the Wanganui speedbox master, and have everything on it, but unfortunately this is not the case. :crybaby:

Cheers Scrivy - the dvd is pretty good (normally I just turn the commentary down and put some music on) so lack of commentary is no problem.
Great meeting, tv coverage, dvd, free meat and beer... Anyone complains they need shooting.
