Round 5 - Manfeild - Race 3

Things just haven't gone according to plan for the Dale Williams
Racing Team this weekend. After starting 9th in the Reverse Grid 3rd
Race at Manfeild he was quickly pushed back in the field. But coming
together with Haydn McKenzie, Dale's tyre was blown, rims destroyed,
and having to pit Dale was left at the back of the pack once again and
finished 1 lap down.

Round 5 - Manfeild - Race 2

After receiving a 50s Penalty from Race 1 for turning Simon Richards,
Dale started Race 2 at the back of the grid. Things didn't really get
any better for Dale during the race, and he finished up in 22nd, 1 lap
down. The team is hoping for a bit better luck in the reverse grid 3rd
race.

Driving at Manfeild this weekend, in Round 5 of the NZ V8s Championship, the Dale Williams Racing team are in to another weekend of racing at The Mad Butcher 200.

After qualifying 15th in the Top 20, and with no Top 10 shootout due to rain, Dale started Race 1 at 15th on the grid. Boxed in at the start, Dale dropped back to 19th place, but drove really well and managed to make it back up to finish in 12th place.
