STEALTHY should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Holdens cutting back to 1 shift

So, nights have gone, now arvo's will be aswell.


People wont lost their jobs as such, just half their pay.

Will be changing to 1 shift, with 2 crews. 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off (alternating obviously)

Beginning of the end, or just to get by through this crisis, you decide.




Was going to put this in parcferm, but i figured its directly related to our sport! No more commodore means no more V8s.....

Only sort of, and Parc Ferme is wrong as well. Road Car, on the other hand, since that's what they're buiding...

Stealthy I think it is because they didn't cut production enough before now. I can't remember the number but I did see they have thousands of unsold cars "in the system" and even more by proportion of sales of the Pontiac G8. Unfortunately nothing seems likely to spike sales soon, except perhaps there might be a rush by businesses to take advantage of the rebate they can get by the end of June.

Can you take a business that has been around for several decades and turn it into a financial basket case with the fall of a couple of major banks??

If so, send your application to:
