I think Todd kelly will step up to the number one team as he has proved himself this year..as for gary brabham..wow..is it gary or geoff you mean..if it is gary then its about time we heard of him ..last i saw of him was surfers in 94 and nothing since..not a bad driver..in fact i would like to see all 3 of the brabham boys in the ATCC one day.

I still feel lowndes will either got to FTR or a new Holden team despite the fact he lives in QLD.

will alan jones step up to the plate in a second toll car..he seems to get on well with the team ????

the rest i dont have a clue about.

ah 1. Really how well do people think Kelly went this year??

2. GARY gary gary. This here is the top secret story from a little while ago I wasn't meant to tell anyone. He was instructing at a driver training course up here, when he wispered to one of the guys there that he was going to race in V8s next season. The guy noticed he drove in in a John Briggs Jag, and asked him if he it was with the Cat team...to which he responded yes. Although saying that, John Bowe said on the coast that the team wouldn't have enough money to run two cars...who knows.

3. Does anyone like Alan Jones any more? The Toll team simply have that car as a spare, I doubt that they would have the money to run two.

Well they used to, but they will only have one V8, and a Jaguar or two in GTP NC to fill up the budget. Plus Ellery still is a privateer franchise holder, so doesn't need to run two cars. Trust me on this one

Why would Lowndesy be going to FTR, if one of the main reasons for him leaving HRT is the travel back and forawrds to Melbourne?

Mitre 10- they do have a second car there just waiting to be repaired.

Gatorade- Confirmed as a Lites team next year.

Greenfield- Cameron is now a seperate opperation to his Dad, who will be running the Salmon car in whichever series they do. Originally it was going to be SCS, but after the split, who knows now.

JFR- In his recent interview in MN he said that they had the budget in place for 1.75 cars...and Macrow would need to bring the rest if he wants the drive. Another thing I heard was that the sponsors aren't too happy there either...

John Deere- Is out, finished, kaput. Sold car to Morris, which he has been raicng of late.

CAT- Hmmm, not so sure... Gary Brabham is the best of the Brabham brothers at putting a deal together, and if he said he was going to be racing for Briggs next season, maybe he would bring a new sponsor on board.

Lowndesy will be driving for a Queensland based team next year.

Which one I hear you ask? I have insider info, but I'm sworn to secrecy. So I'll give you a hint

He is presently working on a Craig Lowndes special VX Statesman to be sold as a limited edition through a select group of Holden Dealers.

I have more to add to this when it's confirmed.

P.S. Lowndes may be fitting energy polarisers to his VX Satesman.

Gees a little sack of crystals hey? Gees...GMH didn't like that when BROCK did that back in the late 80s...

Hmm, that pair have been getting along rather chumbily of late, especially after reading AA, where Mr P.Brock advised Mr C.Lowndes to leave HRT.

And apparanently Mr P.Brock has just said some more nice things about Mr C.Lowndes on Channel Nein....Hmm...and Mobil is still rather chumbily with Mr P.Brock, will P.Brock Jr also be in this super dooper team? Also, I have a secret workshop under my garage...if they want somewhere secure they know my number... Ok David, you do live closer to C.Lowndes, but i'm sure Stafford Heights wouldn't be too far away for him to travel to work
