RED CENTRENATS 12 PRO BURNOUT UPDATE:

After the Pro Burnout awards at Red CentreNATS were announced it was brought to our attention that the winner Ryan Pearson in HOLDON may have contacted the wall.

We now know this to be true because Ryan is the one who alerted us and we thank him for his honesty.

The new top five is:

1st Robert Cottrell - 4DH8RS - $30,000
2nd Jake Myers - S1CKO - $10,000
3rd Jono Kelly - 3FIVE5 - $5,000
4th Pete Thomsen - MY80XD - $3000
5th Britt Kilby - HAMMERD - $2000

All competitors will be awarded full prize money for their standings.

The incident happened in a place where the judges could not see it. It wasn't clear on the video - which was watched by the judges before finalising results.

This decision is not because people disagree with the judging. It's because Ryan told us he hit the wall.

Don't blame the judges - they judge fairly, and can only judge what they see, and they totally support the decision. by @red_centrenats
