Seeing as they would have only been able to run in the 12hr and seemingly nowhere else at the moment, why would you bother bringing any out here?
An international team might have been interested, but there's no point in a local team buying one at the moment.

The article in AA suggested to me that the TCR rules in Australia had been licenced to Supercars?

In emails obtained by Auto Action the reasons for Hammond’s inability to run TCR was due to the naming rights to the words ‘Touring Car’ and that Supercars hold the rights to the technical regulations as much as the name, which in turn disallows CAMS to ‘award these rights to any other promoter.’

Not sure why running a TCR series on the Shannons Nationals calendar would be bizarre? It's exactly what the Shannons calendar was designed for wasn't it?
