The Most Hyped Presser In The History of Mankind
Massive announcement at Norwell tomorrow at 12, supposed to be secret squirrel. Press have all been invited, and apparently some big stakeholders will be present.

Hyperbole? New team owner? New series owner? New driver signing? New sponsor? Calendar announcement? Return of TC? |

The release itself, or at least the document from which I nicked that paragraph from anyway, has a series championship and Repco logo on it.
It is headlined as a Supercar announcement yet talks to ‘key competitors’ in that series. Designed to be purposely vague no doubt as it is devoid of any team or sponsor branding. Presumably it will become known in 18 hours or so, if not before. |

So is Morris buying Erebus?
Morris buying DJR? Norwell sponsoring DJR through Kostecki? Surely today’s press call is more than just a driver confirmation? |

Hmmmmm......
So, Norwell is neutral territory. Have Morris, Dane, and co bought the Supercars business from RACE? Has Morris bought the SCT licence from the Smiths? Have the Ralphs offloaded DJR and Betty offloaded Erebus to create PAdderton 4-car Boost Supercar SuperSquad? Is Norwell going to host a 500 km endruance race? Has The Pope become Anglican? |

Especially when the management calls it a ‘statement of intent’ despite not outlining plans for increasing the engineering firepower nor the commercial sensibilities of new partners being brought to the show.

Much ado about nothing. For all the hints and gossip nothing to make a fuss about or out of the blue.

Weird. They could have done something for their other champion the year before. They could have all gone to the airport and waved to SVG as his plane takes off on its way to the USA. Imagine the theatre... Or maybe not.
Who is telling Paul Morris he's not the new owner of a Supercars team? |

When BK leaves DJR in the future, they could do it like a cold war spy swap. With a bridge and everything. I'm not sure what Dick would look like in a black suit? It will have to be black.

Speedcafe reporting that Engineer Commins is off DJR as well.
Wonder if Barry will follow Brodie to DJR as well? |
