No Rat In The Streets Of Adelaide??
TKR have just announced that the rat will not be at the season opener.
After testing at winton, Paul realised he wasnt quite ready physically for the demands of the street circuit. |

Kayne is flying home to NZ straight after the saturday development series race to jump in the car for races 2 and 3 of the NZV8s at Timaru on Sunday (according to the paper on Sunday).

I heard...that Pither has kept his ties with TKR close, i for one would be stoked if he chucked his helmet on for round 1.

a huge shame for Radisich really , he has been out for a while a good race meeting in a brand new car would have been perfect , but I guss thats the way it goes.
Pither seems a logical choice , other than that I dont know who would be available ?? |

Wow, that is very disappointing, I was really excited about seeing Paul back in a Falcon next weekend (had planned on buying a shirt and everything!).
I assume it is his left ankle that is still causing problems? I was unaware until recently that he usually left foot brakes............ which is another complication when considering the impact of this injury on his driving. Why shouldn't I be looking forward to seeing Paul in 2008 Chatters? |

If what I've heard is right, 2007 may be Paul's last year...
And even if it isn't, I can't see him wanting to race for much longer... |

Paul said he would not have returned this year if it wasn't for the Ford deal.
If the package is competitive, I would expect to see him for another couple of years. |

He doesnt have to be in a porker but one would think he will be, to try and put his first motor racing championship to bed. It would depend on which would be most attractive to him i would of thought as he aint getting any younger. One thing in his favour is he wouldnt have any competition as the other 2 musketeers will be at The Clipsal. Would be the best choice for DJ and his gang thats for sure.

Matt Haliday has worked with FPR cars before in the enduros I would rate a far better chance to do well over pither.
