Good win that. A prestigious race and plenty of fame for Scotty to live off for a while (not to mention the bucks!)

What a classic......you're spot on Andy, the guy is a Banana Bender!

Born in Queensland, Australia to New Zealand parents, Dixon moved to Auckland, New Zealand at a very young age. With the encouragement of his motorsport-enthusiast parents, Dixon began racing karts before the age of 10.

GO YOU AUSSIES!

Sorry - still counting..
Phar Lap
Pavlova
Split Enz
Dragon
Russell Crowe
Karmichael Hunt
Robbie Deans
and now Scott Dixon

what next The Kiwi?

Fortunately you'll never be able to claim the Super 14 or Bledisloe Trophies - you need class rather than cheek to get at those!

We'll take Dragon, you can have the rest back ;)

I would say for Dixon is a New Zealander regardless of birthplace. No one regards Nicole Kidman as an American because she was born in Hawaii.

and crowded house are better than split enz anyway.

crowded house = australian band
split enz = kiwi band

therefore, australia is better than nz.

simple.

Using your logic, I'm a Victorian and don't have to own up to being born in Adelaide SA!. Both my parents were Victorian and I have lived 98% of my life here in Vic!
