RaceTime should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
V8 money is certainly NOT coming back into grass root motor sport. Formula Ford have been sponsored by Ford virtually since the categories inception - at present Ford are strangling the category trying to introduce a one make category and this is have a detrimental effect on the category - no on e knows if they are Arthur or Martha at present and no one can plane 2 years down the track - that is not support!

I'm not disputing DJR support some karting venture - but is that all that can be done? That is like the Fed Govt saying they will finance an anti-drugs campaign - here's $100,000 - goodbye!

V8 Supercars are sucking up sponsorship like it is going out of style. They are alienating officials and organisation groups left right and centre by trying to centralise their control over the category.
