The final heat of the Lone Star - Speights Roller Racing has seen the leaders board have a serious shake up with three new teams placing themselves at the top of the table. The large supportive crowd were treated to a highly competitive night of racing from beginning to end.
The first up team, Fonterra spent the night nervously waiting to see if their scorching time of 1:43.105 would be toppled by the remaining six teams. But it was proven to be not only the fastest of the night but also the outright fastest of all the teams involved in the competition. Second fastest team was AWS Legal (1:46.862) while NZ Fire Service 1 completed the top 3 with a time of 1:47.155.
With some outstanding times being produced in both the men's and women's finals things are certainly shaping up to be a tight battle for honors for the finals next Wednesday at the Lonestar.
