Karrots Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 https://www.facebook.com/HarnessedInformant/videos/185727273059011/ Does anyone have any infamous times drivers have spoken to 1 another to share. Funny, fun or just infamous. Saw this the other day, but at time didn’t take notice of what was being said. Quite clear now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, fun Hahaha gee Karrots , I've seen an endless list of drivel from drivers mouths .John McMullen Jnr is by far the best. He had funny things to say after and during every race. (Dad of current QLD champ driver Pete and also his 3 daughters win at every meeting too, incredible family) Junior would come out with things like . "What were you thinking?. Wait on, thinking would be a new experience for you?" lol "I'm taking the lead, or you're tasting the track" ( as he takes you on up front of field) "If you do that again , I'll put you that wide you can buy an ice-cream in the grandstand!" " If you had a brain, it might fill your helmet , so it sits on your head better and you don't drive blind all the time" " I'll win this by so far, I'll organise a search party to look for you guys when I go back to scale afterwards" 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always wonder what they are saying. Re-watched the whole race re McCaffery & nothing untoward happened during running, so suspect he is just being a (Cheeky Monkey). Going by what you say, sounds like banter lol is quite common place on the track, well Oz at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always wonder what they are saying. Most races the drivers have a fair idea who the leader will be. (horses with gate speed /and/or Good draw are easy to work out. You can talk before going on track or around at the start. BETTER if some opponents know what you are doing to AVOID confusion. In NZ occasionally you'll see 2 duelling for the lead, (obviously didn't communicate before race) and usually bring your horses unstuck doing that (gassing them early) Most races everyone jumps into 'formation' quickly. GREAT TACTICS by Telfers Stable runners again last night !, in a couple of races , leaving Barry Purdons in deathseat both times. Your example above, my guess would be the inside driver would be saying " Geez you're a f.......,I told you I was leading tonight....." lol..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word is that they both saying something what was said was something along the lines of: Sizzle, sizzle, you are going a bit slow aren’t you. Karrots finds this a bit hard to believe, based on the mouth work, but guess you never know. Edited March 13, 2021 by Karrots 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well waiting from A Harrison, J Teaz, A Fitzgerald. You have nothing to be afraid of from replying Karrots will fend any attackers off. This is the story that is going around isn't it. I know you all read this. So is this what you heard too? Edited March 13, 2021 by Karrots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
