If it is the Sandown 500...make sure you watch it as it is all action!!!!!
Rumour has it that the Ford Focus WRC team might be on its last legs...but you watch this race...they have a brand new V8Supercar Rally team being set up!!!!!
I will not give it away as to which team I mean...but it will be pretty obvious after you have watched the whole race...Which car is carrying more mud than fuel at the end of the race!!!!!!!!!!???????!!!!!! 
A bit of other news, this is out of Auto Action or similar, I am not sure if this is known over there...Team Dynamik (VY Holdens) are in a lot of trouble as they were caught secretly testing out at the Woomera Rocket range in the middle of the South Australian desert. They are only allowed to test on 6??? days a year. So far they have been fined $104,000 but it is being appealed by both sides. TEGA want to increase it....Dynamik want it reduced. They had gone to the trouble of covering all the Dynamik signs on the car and the transporter. They were only found out coz somebody went to their workshop to collect something for a Konica car (V8supercar feeder series) and noticed the transporter was missing. So an official was sent off to Woomera to look for it!!!
Dynamik have claimed they were secretly testing a brand new paint and commercial in confidence and all that stuff!!!!
Lots of Lawyers now involved I think!!!!

G'day Rob mate,long time no see,how are ya?
Great to see you haven't lost your sense of humour.
Motomk says it's a great race,(except for 1st 2nd and 3rd).Still,as I told you before,I'm a Pom so I'm not biased either way,I just love those V8 Supercars,don't care whose colours they're in.
Anyway,don't panic yet,Brighty could still win it,only a gnats c... between him and MA. No hope for your main man though.Will he still be at HRT next season?
'bye for now mate,keep your chin up.

G'Day Mick,
Yes mate I got up to watch it, was a very eventful race, both Brighty, (spun by another car) & Skaifey while leading & fastest car on the trck (Fxxd thrown sideways in front of him - nowhere to go)very unlucky. But that's how it goes sometimes hay. Shame M.A ,s car managed to get back on the track after the spin, I was praying it would get stuck in the mud !!
Talk about MUD, (Quote motomk) they have a brand new V8Supercar Rally team being set up!!!!!
Yes mate he, ( Alex Yoong) Ex F1 I think, was off the track more than on. Loved the MUD paint job.
See yas at on the Mountain (Bathurst)

Ah you got it!! the WPS Ford Rally team !!
If you fell off the road...you needed tractor tyres!!!
HRT's main man...he can't go anywhere!!! he owns the team now!!!!!
Here is some more news out of Oz in the past few weeks!
Lowndes is leaving FPR and going to 888 racing (Ford too) I guess you know that name!!!!
Seton is leaving FPR and joining DJR (Shell Fords)
FPR are rumoured to be getting Radisich.

Yes mate,
Forgot to mentin that to qldmick, that Skaifey won't be going anywhere, when he owns part of the setup. Why would he want to leane anyway !
Yes heard about Seton & Lowndes aswell. Lowndes won over 50 races with HRT, only about 4 with Fxxd. Cant he see the problem !
FPR must be desperate to sign Radisich.

Didn't actually know that Skaifey was so big at HRT but really it doesn't take a lot of working out. Problem is,what happens if(or when)they get a run of poor results and become also rans?, speaking hyperthetically of course,but in racing who knows.
Does he resign or what,what would he do?
It needn't be the Fords either. What if some of the other Holden teams suddenly find the secret of success and start beating HRT on a regular basis,or he just has a couple of seasons of bad luck.
What do you reckon mates?

None of the above will happen mate,
HSV Build the base cars, so he has ALL the nowhow first hand. So the HRT Team will always be a top running Holden Team.
As for the other brand, they still have a long way to get to HRT standards ! HRT have had a difficult year, but apart from BAD luck the team are BACK ON TRACK, Bring on Bathurst !!
