West Coast Speedway ? Stock Car Team Race 8 November 2008
The return of The Recreation Hotel Teams Racing at Greenstone Park on Saturday was a spectacular event not to be missed. The eastern States Titians showed what teams racing was all about by having five team members finishing the event and therefore all being awarded points. The racing was brutal with many cars sitting some of the race in the infield after being forced from the track. The first stock car home was Scott McIntosh from Palmerston North and the first West Coaster was Tony Oliver in 5th place. The next round will be at Blenheim next weekend.
Results
Eastern States Titians 57 points
Palmerston Cowboys 28 points
Greenstone Grizzlies 20 points
Stock Cars
As well as the teams race there were three rounds of stock car racing with 23 cars on the tack for the first round. This was almost a rerun of the teams racing with plenty on inter track rivalry evident with some massive hits and shoving particularly into the wall.

2nd 49 P Justin Cunningham 54 points
3rd 99 GM Cleve Kokshoorn 44 points

A recent arrival from the Youth Ministock class Jayden Gerrard is dominating this class so far this season. The racing was very close on points between the first five placings. Gerrard and Chris McSherry of Westport tied for first place.

1st = 61 Y Chris McSherry 24 points
