Jim back to HRT???
I was reading in today's AA that Jim Richards will not be partnering his son Steven this year as Jim believes that Steven needs another number 1 driver to remain competitive in those races. The article also said that Mark Skaife is interested in taking him back to HRT as the lead driver to the second car at Sandown and Bathurst. The enduro line up for HRT will be revealed at the Australian Motorshow along with the livery. What do you guys reckon?

It's Tony Longhurst's turn to drive for HRT in the enduro's this year as well (2001, 2003.......2005??)
I hope they give Jason Plato another crack at it this year. |

So it will be Brock and Richards in a HDT prepared Holden Commodore VY. Sponsors will be Marlboro (special exemption because it is brock), TAA (brought back from the dead), Castrol, 3XY and 2SM.
Ha Ha Ha Ha In all seriousness, I would love to see Jim back at Bathurst again. Just not Brock, hes had enough farewells. I always wanted to see a Steven and Jim Richards Bathurst win, but time is catching up. |

The Poms should stay at home. All they do is ruin other people's races.

If they have the HQs on the supports at Bathurst, then Neal and Plato might get an invite back
Apologies, that's being rude to the HQ drivers of Australia |

As for Jim going with HRT, wouldn't he wish to drive for a leading Team?

I forgot about the FTR and CAT falcons.
Maybe it might be shorter writing a list of the cars Jim hasn;t driven. |
