I KNOW RACING IS RACING BUT. AT PAEROA TONY REES AND LANCE LOWE COLLIDED AND WENT DOWN, IF YOU SAW THIS ON TV OR WITNESSED IT LIVE WHO WOULD YOU SAY WAS AT FAULT?

Didn't see any of it but I hear half of the people saying Tony cut him off and the other half reckon Lance went in too hot and did a rolling stoppie into Tony's rear end. :spudwhat:

brian bernard was right behind them and he told me lance lowe mucked up. on the TV it looks like tony turned in on him (surely he wouldnt have done that if he had seen him).

however the answer to me is simple, and even tho im a tony rees fan (lance lowe is damn cool too) he passed him on the straight on that lap, why did he not block him from coming down there? still looks like a racing incident to me but i reckon tony coulda stopped him goin up the inside.

I like Tony but this time he turned in on Lance.. WHY?? dunno.
Tony's bad this time around. Thats racing.

Lance has been an almost ran for so many years it's not funny. A lot of racers don't give him the respect he deserves because he's somewhat of a wildman. What they don't realise, is he's also extremely talented.

To see him running at the front is a buzz for me and to see his effort at Wanganui when his steering damper bolt fell off on the siting lap, that was just phenominal and testament to the guys grit.

My oppinion only.

Its pretty bloody simple really.

It is never the fault of the person in front. If you can see something in front of you it's your obligation not to hit it.

It's racing. Either go past by going around on the inside or outside, or get in line for the corner.

Correct.

However, when you're racing, and you're aware of another racer on the inside and slightly behind you, it's poor form to simply "shut him down" when unnessecary. It's also fucken dangerous, regardless of whether you were in front or not.
