Nordic should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
2009 season and the global slowdown

With the sad news that Embassy have closed thier doors and Essex have given up I wonder what team news the coming few weeks and months will bring.

The older people among us will recall the early 90's and the last time the global markets had an impact on sportscar racing. The recession then coupled with the Grp C rule changes and the massive rise in costs they brought saw still born projects from Jag and Merc and a few others leaving only Pug and Toyota to battle it out until the series died.

Are we facing a meltdown of that scale now?
