Here's a selection of Graham Meiklejohn's favorite snaps from the past season.
[EDIT: Tangi/Funeral details at end of post]
It's with much sadness that we have learned that Pete 'Black Pete' Gullery, the friendly, smiling face in the pre-stage lanes for many years at Masterton Motorplex, has passed away following a brief illness.
Pete was a long-time hot rodder; a member of Street Cruisers in the mid-'80's, then later of Union Streeters, with a bunch of rides including his brown and black '56 F100, '56 Customline, and of course his well-known black roadster.
He was also a long-time helper and supporter of Masterton Motorplex for over two decades, starting out at the Hood Aerodrome with set-up and tear-down of the track, then with the timing gear, and then with running the pre-stage, along with his awesome daughter, Marina 'Subby' Carn.
Pete was a staunch, loyal, and dedicated man, who was considered a great friend to many, and he will be sorely missed. The Masterton Motorplex Board would like to pass on their sincere condolences to Pete's friends and family, and especially to his bestie and daughter, Marina Carn. RIP Pete, godspeed brother.

If you get the chance to see Trash 2 Dash go see it. Awesome kiwi made doco/film about a jet powered dragster that broke the kiwi land speed record in 2020.
Going.... UP!Wheels up wednesday kicks off with this insane image by Jarod Carruthers Photography of the aftermath of a broken wheeliebar on Brent Whittingham’s Camaro.
We have lots of talented photographers at any given race meeting, but it's not too often we get to show you what's happening down at the 'deep end'. One of Masterton Motorplex's hard-working volunteers, Marc, is a keen photographer, with a difference; he shoots using old-school 35mm slide and Ektar Chrome film, which produces really vivid and unique shots. It's not uncommon to see Marc at full speed going between packing parachutes and snapping some quality images with a difference. We hope you like this selection. Thanks Marc!
