HRO/TWR ownership?
Im interested to know the latest with HRO/TWR ownership. People still seem to be obsessed with it being a HRT ownership problem, but its not; HRT, KRT and TB are all in strife.
Correct me if im wrong but TEGA's beef is with the fact that they don't want 6 cars being run out of clayton, am I right? HRT being owned by GMH is just a temporary fix. Names like Skaife, Brock, Morris, Weel and corporate ex-TWR staff for example need only to be signed in name to fix that problem, no money needs to be exchanged. But the 6 cars out of clayton is the problem, what are they going to do? Whats the latest? |

We done use HRO or that ghastly TWR name any more... the entity should be referred to as "Symbol", the race team formerly known as TWRA
The argument is 2 fold, Holden own HRT's franchise, and the 6 "Symbol" cars are based out of the same industrial park. No word officially from anywhere, but I suspect one of them will move across the road to one of the up-for-lease buildings to build some artificial walls between them |

K&J Radiator Industries operates out of Bendix Drive in Clayton, while the other 2 teams are inside the Clayton Business Park on Centre Rd Clayton.
The repairs to the Weel car are taking place as I understand it, inside the inner sanctum at HRT |

If the "Symbol" team or one of them at least will not be allowed to run at Adelaide, how many lawyers will be on hand ready for action. I have heard that at least on Team will have some on hand awaiting developements.

Maybe there will be a new 'King' at the main "Symbol" team. I think something will be announced soon. I think there will only be one actual team ownership change though.

Any truth in the rumour that a Yellow and Silver car was seen being unloaded into the HRT workshop on the Friday arvo of the GP. Hope AVESCO didn't get a picture of that one?

I bet if the "Symbol" team reverted to my ownership, there would already be enough drivers contracted
Having said that of course, there would be nothing stopping a 6 car "GTRMagic REI" Konica team would there??? |
