however discussion in the above says BJ of BJR is part owner of said REC. Does this in the bottom line mean Notso is paying for his drive, or maybe receiving $$ from Team Karl, and part of the REC in turn goes to BJ??
The story on Speedcafe invites as many questions as it answers.

The 'Britek' REC allegedly changed holding company not long ago, to a company named Jobri Holdings P/L. Popular wisdom at the time suggested the REC was being held in Josie Bright's (Jason's mum..) care (hence JoBri..).. But this is a new twist...

Fair Dinkum Sheds arrived at BJR after Tasman's closure. Funnily enough, until sponsorship on the #14 was confirmed, Mr Bargwanna was wearing a Fair Dinkum Sheds racesuit from his daus at Tasman, unrelated to the BJR sponsorship.

At times, Mr Reindler has brought support onto his car from a variety of personal backers, including Wilson Security, Thomson Aviation and various commercial partners related to the mining industry...

Presumably the 3rd BJR brings a positive financial contribution to the overall team, such that it could be argued that this has assisted Mr Bright in attaining his current ride.. Personal performance levels would likely need to be at a high enough level to keep Mr Bright there. No announcement about that did you notice? Or about Mr Ingall. Or a possible new pilot for the 3rd car..

We shall see
