248 Global challenge Palmerston North

With Shane Penn driving the car tonight as John Lund 9 times world champion driving the Silver Bullet it was going to be a good night to learn. Heat 1 Shane was on grid 4 the green flag dropped and first corner Shane hit the lead and 15 laps later he took the win good first race in a familiar car.

Heat 1 Superstock Global Challenge. Shane got a good start and made his was up to 3^rd Royden Collingwood decided he wanted that place more so half spun Shane but unable to finish the job off Shane got away again but with a flat left front tyre. Shane Penn still managed to keep good pace and finished 7^th. Heat 2 Shane somewhere near the back of the pack was going at a steady pace and picking off cars until he got passed 85H Jarrod Wade and Wade decided he didn’t like that and spun Shane out in pit corner. Shane trying to get the car going but she just wouldn’t fire at least 15 cars managed to dodge Shane just that 85H managed to hit Shane and do abit of damage. So red lights and we are taken off. When the car gets back to the pits we find damage and a lot of it. R/h side wheelguard, Diff pan arm bar bent front axle had seen better days and no brakes. Shane Penn decides that’s enough damage for the night and we load up. We would like to congratulate 66p Kelvin Gray taking the 2008 Global challenge in an immaculately presented car or Steve Hampton. Frankie Wainman Jnr and Stuart Smith for taking 2^nd and 3^rd respectively these guys can sure drive.

We would like to Thank Bryce, Shane, Gary Penn, Robbie, Peter and their families for their help and support

Thanks Superstock 7B team
