[pierceFAN]

Looks good

[Bloomerdirtking]

Give em Hell Bobby, USA 🇺🇸

[93Nelson]

Sharp looking car

[Centeroff]

Crazy looking ride. What kind of rules do they run over there? Those New Zealanders are gonna know what hit em lol

[calverton]

the New Zealanders like to slam a lot , why can't the us lates look like that

[TheJet-09]

Looks like an asphalt car. Sharp! But different.

[TackyTracker]

pretty cool looking

[a25rjr]

Imagine that! According to fb, he's already torn the quarter panel off! lol

[calverton]

Great that means he's fast

[93Nelson]

Here's a race. Not with pierce though. https://youtu.be/lLyxRy9E2u8

[TerryM]

Awesome graphics, but not a big fan of the body. Ours look much better IMO

[ClampedUp]

Would love to see those body rules adopted here for the super lates!

[93Nelson]

They used to run bodies that looked like "factory" cars but they've started using the l.m noses like this one. They don't look right at all.

[WisWildManFan]

Look like sprint car tires in the back

[Cardirt0]

Would love to see those body rules adopted here for the super lates!

Love the roof line witch they do that here...Makes the car look more like a real car...

[Cardirt0]

Look like sprint car tires in the back

Right rear is a Sprint car tire...

[Stede Bonnet]

Awesome graphics, but not a big fan of the body. Ours look much better IMO

They have late models like ours too, but in NZ they have their own thing, the Super Saloons and in Australia they have a similar car called a Super sedan. The NZ super saloons run methanol, sprint car tires on the rears and the radiator is laid flat over the rear end. They are lot less, "monkey see-monkey do" when it comes to engine and suspension also. Many different suspension setups, with sway bars, reverse "W-Link" and even turbo chargers on some.

[zyoung25]

Awesome graphics, but not a big fan of the body. Ours look much better IMO

I agree. Looks like corvette after a road warrior makeover.

Hopefully he has fun.

[calverton]

Crazy motor to weight rules

[Centeroff]

Why would he get involved with a super street with a DLM nose? Smh

[calverton]

because he can and those are not super streets far from it and they might look like one but not even close their cube to weight rule is nothing like we have here

[93Nelson]

Why would he get involved with a super street with a DLM nose? Smh

Unless your being sarcastic, why would you pass up an opportunity like this? I would in a heartbeat.

[calverton]

He's just jealous his hero is not there but then we remember the sway bar incident lmfao

[Bubstr]

Seems like a great opportunity for a young man. Visit New Zealand, a very beautiful country and very interesting people and a ride in a good car. It's a great experience if nothing else. They have great race fans over there and I'm sure they will find Bobby as fun to watch as we do here. As far as the quarter goes, your not fast till you find where the cushion ends and the wall begins.

[Bforwarned]

They look like cartoon cars but pretty cool.

[*WEAVER*]

It looks fun.. https://www.facebook.com/grant.flynn.92/videos/10210456572228265/

[Cardirt0]

Not a big Bobby fan ..But this is Got too be good for him...To race some cars that are not the same and too get his name out there... I hope he does good for the US of A .. This Kind of car should suit him well.....

[kipling]

That track doesn't look very wide

[Bigracer93]

Looks like a RC car

[smoothoperator32]

I bet it feels different to him without his dad there.

[Cardirt0]

I bet it feels different to him without his dad there.
Thats good for him, too he needs to be out there on his own ....

[Barbecueboy]

It's good to be Bobby pierce..............


How can anyone not enjoy seeing a kid having a blast doing something he loves to do?? Good for him.

[smoothoperator32]

Why would he get involved with a super street with a DLM nose? Smh

I doubt super streets run 434 cubic inch methanol injected engines

[calverton]

Super saloons are over the place for. Cubic inches to weight check out their rules

[TackyTracker]

does look pretty narrow doesn't it

[TerryM]

It's good to be Bobby pierce..............

Too much common sense in this post. That's not allowed.

[zyoung25]

After watching some videos of these things, they look like a handful to drive. Looks a mixture between mods and non wing sprints, definitely look fun.

[smoothoperator32]

[Highside Hustler25]

Started 12th, finished 2nd. Winner checked out while Bobby was coming through the field. Needed a late caution. All in all, I'd say job well done.

[TackyTracker]

[calverton]

[Highside Hustler25]

How about a link to said videos??

a video of the whole race can be found at either Bobby's facebook page or his Mom's.

[dirtdobber45]

[calverton]

[Highside Hustler25]

[Centeroff]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=J1sfAZRpIu8 Not sure if you guys have posted or not. Just found it

[calverton]

hey centeroff now are you a believer

[Centeroff]

Yea, oldfan, if he wouldn't have beat those bad as$es from New Zealand I never would have believed he could drive a racecar. He beat those guys for sure. Totally amazing!! Never knew an American could beat a 3rd world racing country in a late model. Wow, just ordered a Pierce tee shirt. Even overnight shipped it, just couldn't wait to put it on. I will probably never take the thing off. I am a believer! I feel like Benny Hinn just touched me on the 4head. Amazing feeling!

[calverton]

third world country wow you can't be that stupid , what do call those lil events like the world 100 and ns 100 weekly shows

[nuff said]

He did let 6 of them go by at the beginning to make it interesting.

[calverton]

hey centeroff you and a few others in the 36 percentile must think this way 36% of all voters think that Scott Bloomquist is gay (homosexual), 63% voted for straight (heterosexual), and 1% like to think that Scott Bloomquist is actually bisexual. i am in the 1 percent lmao

[Centeroff]

Calverton, you can't get to me tonight, my Pierce shirt will be here first thing in the morning. I never said New Zealand was a third world country. Slow down, walk slow and drink plenty of cold water and you will always stay cool. I said New Zealand was a third world racing country meaning that any decent American that would have driven that 32 car that night would have won. The best DLM drivers in the world live in the greatest country in the world. God bless America

[calverton]

Never knew an American could beat a 3rd world racing country in a late model what do you call that

[calverton]

new zealand and aussies know their racing don't be fooled you fool

[kiwi1955]

Hi Guys and Girls,As a Kiwi who actually participated in Saturday's feature which Bobby won, I ran 9th, I feel I can put a sane perspective on this thread. Firstly it was a great idea to get a driver of Bobby's calibre to take part in the BK Series. The car Bobby was driving is the 24 car normally driven by Ben Harding and is a very competitive car as are most of the car in the series, by this I mean the cars are very equal amongst themselves. Bobby is a professional driver doing 80 odd meetings a year, we struggle to make 20 meetings a year as that is about what's available. This year already we have had one rain out and one earthquake out! What the feature showed me was a extremely smooth calculated drive by a very talented driver. The reality is any top USA driver in equal equipment should get the job done because they have infinitely more seat time. Josh Richards ran here about 5 years ago in a late model at Baypark and cleaned up. Kiwis love their motorsport of any type and love getting American drivers out to compete. This has happened for many years in the midget and sprintcar classes and has certainly raised the standard here in those classes. Hopefully Bobby will return and bring other drivers with him.

That might have been Bobby's cleanest race of the year.lol The racing over here sometimes gets a little physical if you know what I mean. As you said, a well calculated race by Bobby. I was wondering when he was going to put it up top. Really enjoyed the video of the race. Good luck in the future and stay safe. Thanks for doing what you do.

[over4T]

Great run by a very talented young man in a strange car on a strange track in a strange country. Enjoy the memories you're making and 20 or 40 years ahead you'll appreciate them even more.

Thanks for the insight and congrats on a top 10 in what seems to be a very competitive field. I watch some of the Super Saloon racing on Youtube from time to time and it seems like great racing takes place over there in NZ.

Thanks,
Jeff.
