Wade Cunningham
Personally I believe that one of NZ's wasted talents as a driver, has to be Wade Cunningham.
Not sure as to the reason why, but I watched him win his 3rd Indy lights race at the Indy 500 a few years ago. Absolute zero question Wade has talent. Does he have the funding? It would appear that is not the case. But such a shame to see him doing nothing anymore. I also think he got the rough end of the stick over the Wheldon accident and many blamed him for it, when that was not the case at all. Anyway, I for one hope he has not turned his back on motorsport and walked away, and he will get back behind the wheel in something serious. |

[QUOTE=Mark Petch;3456698]Porsche and their drivers must be pretty disappointed by their hybrids performance, however, I bet Earl Bamber is very happy with his Carrera Cup Porsche, after charging from 5th on the grid at Singapore to take a dominant win and increase his points lead to 21 with two more races to go.
How long before we see Earl driving with Brendon at Le Mans, not long I am hearing, imagine that, 2 Kiwi's driving together at Le Man's in an outright contender, fingers crossed. And the last time 2 Kiwis raced together at Le Mans they won the race |

Good news for Nick, as he seemed to drop off the Formula Renault Radar recently

Bamber in Porsche #912 finished 2nd at Petit Le Mans. From a tweet so I assume that is a class position.
Dixon on the podium in the Ecoboost Riley. |

kiwi's racing overseas
Sitting here in Shanghai, watching 'Adcafe's' Bathurst blog was like Chinese torture. I haven't missed a Bathurst weekend for a very long time and not being able to do anything but listen to a keyboard announcement of the next update, sometimes as much as 5 minutes apart was shear hell! Don't get me wrong I am grateful for Speedcafe's blog but it could be soooo much better.
Reading SVG's pole run was just fantastic, lets just hope that Jonathon can back him up a little better this time. Well done to the whole Tekno team. One very proud Kiwi |

Great result for Mitch....p2 overnight at Sochi. Stanaway not so lucky with a p12, but he did start from pitlane. Mitch now in a comfortable 4th in the championship.
And then SVG on pole for today with most of the top kiwis at the pointy end |

SVG at the World Time Attack this weekend.
Warming up with the S13 - billet engine, holinger and MCA 4 way suspension. http://youtu.be/gxCbnPPKvQo EVO might have been better than putting 800hp through the rear tyres. http://new.livestream.com/accounts/1...events/3487237 Last edited by GHOGH; 16 Oct 2014 at 20:35. |

I reckon Southern Man plus a few others may know this - who has heard of Howden Ganley? I must admit to not having heard the name before.

I may have heard his name in passing but had no idea we'd had a 4th full time F1 driver. And of course, the NZFMR next year is in honour of him! Doh!

And almost Hartley. I think the distinction is full time though.
