And I dont know why, out of benevolence, that Mr Morris should fund a $350k ride in the development series just for the fun of it.... there are currently no VZ's in the PMM shed to operate anyway |

I think you are right about that gtr, Kamal obviously drives well and I am sure if he came along with a few million dollar supercheap type deal then he would get a drive but not on the type of money he races an Aussie racer on.
It is interesting that a lot of cars have been sold while the Mandason car has not, maybe it isnt as good as the price he has on it. |

ok I will bite....
firstly, if you call KEMAL a kamal or a camel again I am certain he will pound you to within an inch of your life... spelling his name wrong once is a typo, twice is just poor form. on the mando issue, you will find it has more to do with him not willing to suck the hairy ones of a certain person. Im sure mando is enjoying working in F1, and doesn't really care either way if the car sells or not... he was fast, and the car was fast also. GTR so being the spokesperson for all things PMM and supercheap (seeing you with the team hat on the weekend) isn't racing about putting good drivers in cars? or is PMM a case of its my money and I will cry if I want to? |

So can anyone explain the commercial benefit of PMM stumping up money for someone to drive one of their cars? Last time I looked, that team werent a benevolent society, and indeed there is a commercial basis for their operating activities..... PMM actually supports a car in the series right now... the bloke that's leading the series.. |

very sorry about the spelling sunseeker you are right it is poor form and Iwill try and do better. The facts are as you put them GTR,racing costs and no one gets a drive without bringing a lot of it to the table either via a sponsor or a Dad and even our plans are on hold cause of a company finasial hickup. I heard that Ben Mcashney was offered a Carera Cup drive but he couldnt come up with the 500 grand to do it and there aint a sponsor who would cause it is not good comercial value unless you are Opus Prime and tearing up someone elses money.

I meant to ask if anyone knows why Richie Rappa didnt practise and qualify at Wakefield, he started race 1 from the back as well which seems weird after he did so well at the Grande Prix.

Rappa had to work on Friday, couldnt get the time off. Goes to show that he has talent considering how he went. Maybe he developed some skill in ARC.

I have not heard what Ingall is doing but I did hear that kim Jones is considering running a car. He was a pretty good peddler in his day as well and Brad Jones might drive as well if he gets the chance.

why cant anyone discuss motorsport with out you being negative and bombastic mr x? what are you trying to achieve????????? anyway back on topic, it would be great to see the jones brothers racing in the arc. i would be good to see ingall back again, a bit more time in the seat could lead to interesting results.

Pretty sick puppy that Mr "no name", he is the same on every thread so I wouldnt worry aussieracer, i think he has a bit of an identity crisis. As it happens I read about kim Jones on E news so I guess the world would know about it not just phil.

I wonder which CAMS officials Wardy is going to get at Oran Park? Just curious really, given that he gets along with them at Oran Park so well.
