If the #9 RPM deal was to fall through due to lack of sponcer $ and Ambrose was to decide on V8SC what team to we think would be at the top of his list?
FPR or SBR or Neither? |

Marcos has racked up winnings of $US2.47m this season, but its stretching things to suggest a comparison with a wage paid to a V8 pilot. Last edited by cavvy; 31 Jul 2010 at 00:46. |

No doubt here that Jeff Gordon thinks Ambrose's car isn't too flash. I'd be really surprised if he doesn't land a decent ride for next year in NASCAR. |

With a cardigan as a race suit? And plenty of storage for the spare balaclava?

To me it sound like it could go either way (staying or returning to Australia).

No you guys are way off the mark, Marcos will be returning to the Apple Isle and taking up a drive of a Tassie AMCA car at Carrick Speedway for the usual Boxing Night meeting.

No chance, if the phone is ringing as much as he says....
He's just bought himself out of the JTG contract, so he's gonna end up massively out of pocket if he doesn't get a new NASCAR deal. Pretty gutsy move. If it works, he'll be in a much better position to win and probably a lot wealthier! |

Mr Stone & Mr Stone are right now winging their way to the US... as part of an Irwin Tools promotion at Bristol Motor Speedway
Wouldnt it be nice if they also caught up with that Tasmanian bloke without a gig, with all the Irwin people who write the cheques in attendance, and sign him to the Irwin branded #4 car for season 2011 and beyond? Fact, fallacy, fantasy? |
