BE THE BLACK SHEEP!
Black Sheep Construction Ltd have generously put up a massive $5,000 for one deserving driver to take home!
There will be three judges and across the two day event every driver will be encouraged to use their bumper to gain the attention of these judges. Each race the three judges will independently award the top three stirrers based on a points system (biggest stirrer- 3 points, 2nd stirrer- 2 points, 3rd stirrer- 1 point). These points will be collated over the weekend and publicly shared on an accessible spreadsheet. After the second round on night two, the top 16 stirrers on the list will qualify for our final 'Black Sheep Stirrers Hit Out'. The biggest stirrer from this final race will come out $5,000 richer!
BUT WAIT, there is more! For those in the stands, there will also be a public voting system that will decide the final 4 spots in the 20-car 'Black Sheep Stirrers Hit Out'. This will run via a Facebook poll system that allows viewers to vote for the drivers they think have been the biggest stirrers of the event.
This incredible format allows for any competitor to take home a massive pay cheque, and may be attractive to those drivers who are out there for the biff rather than the flags!

👉 Neil Mccoard An ex Auckland Allstar, a Stratford Scrapper and more team racing, along with ex 3NZ! Now he spends his time building the toughest gearboxes to put up with the hits! Neil is in attendance for most major championship meetings and will have no trouble spotting who is dishing it out.
