That wasn't an attack, it was constructive criticism, big difference. Feel free to post rumours, but if those same rumours are constantly changed and then posted, proved wrong so new rumours are then posted, it makes very monotonous reading page after page, and somewhat fantasy, as alluded to by others.

Perhaps the crotchety old timers should cut the newbie some slack.

Im enjoying the rumours and there seems to be some basis for them
Sorry I didn't get the memo on what can and cannot be included. Maybe we need to have a service that will review and edit our posts first before being published. Any takers?

The Quinns (Darrell Lea) only backed the team because SvG was there. They stayed on an extra year in good faith.

Not much else to it, really.

word in the lunch room today is that J Moff had to call his people to find out how water tight his contract is - seems that GRM might have 1 to many drivers

Despite rumours that LDM was going to release information today, I think that is false. Going on what LDM have said they never planned anything for today after sharing an article from yesterday saying news was coming today, then blew it apart by saying that their schedule has been different. Is LDM pulling a stunt or is someone feeding wrong information because a lot of it has been spread

Tekno unveils Woodstock sponsorship:
http://www.supercars.com/news/champi.../?sf54054665=1

Quote:
The Will Davison driven Holden will sport Woodstock colours at the Clipsal 500, Townsville 400, Sandown 500, Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 and the Gold Coast 600.
So obviously Asahi don't feel people who aspire to drink Woodstock have Foxtel!

The be fair. LDM was an assumed link. (due to being the only team with spare seats) Bruce oaklands was the one making an announcement today, although even he wasnt positive of todays date.

Will be intresting to see what happens here

Matts sponsor Bruce Oaklands said it would be today obviously this is another example of LDM's poor organisational skills

Maybe the car will carry Asahi branding?

Certainly a better drink, compared to Woodstock

So a big company such as Woodstock/Asashi decides that only FIVE of FOURTEEN rounds of this series are worth being involved with.

This must surely be a worry for the Supercars mob....

I wonder if Oaklands is running his own team. They have a green VF done up, could this mean LDM with one car and Oaklands racing with one car

No Oaklands has said he's only sponoring Matt at Clipsal and funding the SMP Test Day that's all at this moment in time

Why would that worry them? Tekno already had the majority of the sponsorships for other rounds filled bar a few which are 90% completed anyway
