Formula Three saw an upset at the last round, when local Palmerston North rider Glen Williams (Suzuki), clinched the title for the second year, but following some technical checks, he and second placed fellow Suzuki pilot, New Plymouth’s Terry Fitzgerald, lost their points for the round and will now need to contest the final round to put their championship positions beyond doubt

What's the story there? Anyone know what reason they were dq'd for?

[steveyb]

Is that someone jumping the gun?
There was a protest on some technical grounds but everyone thought that it affected neither Glen nor Terry.
More murkiness in the MNZ closet?

What's the haps?

The matter is under official appeal.

The matter is under official appeal.

Good Luck- What ever you do, DO not take MNZ to court over it mate, you may get called a money hungry bugger like a certain man a few years ago did when he challenged a ruling!

[Shaun]

The matter is under official appeal.

YO- Is this the rule issue that is in question re your bike/s dude?

.
Additionally these machines must retain the standard OEMair box, air filter element and
carburettor (with the exception of removable jets or throttle body, including injector).

Wow mate, just read the amazing email floating around about 2 of our best most established riders in this country, the writer needs to sit down and pull his head in big time

[Shaun]

I actually think it would be great to Publish his letter! It is so dam funny

[Bren_chch]

so dont leave us waiting!

[Shaun]

so dont leave us waiting!

I have asked some one else to publish it mate, it is NOT my place to do it really!!!!

But basically, some one has attacked Glen and Terry F by calling them blatant deffinate cheating scum bags,( The writer himself is rather unusall in life also)

Now that really is a slanderish thing to say about these 2 men

The way the RULE in question is written- those guys were NOT using ILLEGAL bikes, they were using the rule book to there adantage, and have both built LEGAL bikes!!!!! Bloody simple, the real problem lies in the way the rule book is written

It leaves GREY area;s where people with healthy brains, can work it to there advantage.

I have asked for over 7 years to be responsible of proof reading the rule book, to word it so there are NO grey area's in wording, but have not gotten to do it yet.

Yip,Bloody amazing innit.Easy to shoot your mouth off when youre bikes not out there to be scrutinised.Especially when the writers bike was as fast as it was a couple of years ago and thats the funniest part.The writer is busy overstating the facts,I mean ram air system,Get a grip!and when he was riding his bike was heaps faster than Terrys.Its one thing to lodge a protest,Which by the way NOBODY had the guts to do,But its another thing to send slanderous full of shit emails out when MNZ finally after 3 years make a decision and decide the riders had misinterpreted the rules,Even though those riders had questioned whether what they were doing was legal.But then I forgot.All the cheating that goes on in NZ roadracing happens in the North Island BWAHAHAHAHA!About now 3 or 4 250 proddy champs would be ducking for cover
