That'll be appealed also.
Forum whore
they will have to appeal both decisions to the sports tribunal,
Forum whore
if the points were posted wrong at taupo then why didn't anyone pick it up, especially those with a vested interest?
Ta
I'm sure that's a valid question.
But it's moot now.
MNZ rules are fucken retarded. MNZ stewards are fucking useless.
This situation shouldn't be possible.
Ta
Yes. If that's what is required.
Low personal B.M.E.P.
I see the ad on TV describing Sloan as "NZ Superbike Champion" did not have a "subject to official confirmation" line on it.
IF Tony is confirmed Champ, I wonder if MNZ will have the balls to fine Suzuki NZ ?
Have to wait and see...
on the up
Jesus, this whole thing's a clusterfuck.
I wouldn't like to be around Sloan today. He'll hardly be pleased.
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

i'm not sure if the sports tribunal has ever over turned a MNZ decision,
i can think of a couple of times they have not over ruled them, i know of one last year over a team selection, another over a superbike title a few number of years back,
Ta
Perhaps not. But that doesn't matter either does it?
Forum whore
as a road racer you need to bear some of that on your shoulders, you are entitled to make the rules, and altar the rules, as is choppa, and the guy in development class.
it entertains me that teams at this level simply don't know the rules, all that time, money and effort into racing and can't pick up a little book and learn it's contents, not even one person in some teams.
Forum whore
Yes, especially the last sentence.
As a rider, we are also all responsible for calling errors in points.
Forum whore
in a way no, but it does tend to show that at appeal level, MNZ tends to get it right, even if the stewards and other officals don't always on the day,
to win at the sports tribunal, you would have to prove that the appeal panel did not rule on the rules correctly, and i dont know enough about the Taupo incident to comment, but with the Hampton downs rerun, the way the appeals committee ruled with the 1/4 points is the way i think the rules are written as well,
Forum whore
agree totally, and its not just road racing, a number of distributor backed teams at the motocross nationals did not know the rules either, and dont even carry a copy of the rule book,
