2016 Dunlop V8 Supercar Development Series

Dunlop Series Not Going To Clipsal In 2016

Again?

Are they looking for owners to go cap in hand? Again. Like this year?

Bloody stupid.

Or is the Dunlop series headed back to Wakefield Park?

Stupid decision and one I would imagine is not preferable for Dunlop series sponsors - Clipsal is too big an event to miss it

Car looks great.

Don't have a 2016 thread but no Dunlop series at Clipsal next year

http://www.speedcafe.com/2015/10/07/...-500-adelaide/

I just can't see the sense in it. They say in the name of "variety". Aussie racing cars over Dunlops.

Am I correct in saying that the Adelaide round isn't promoted by V8SC (like most of the other rounds are)? Maybe just trying to get something from them, and this is part of the negotiations. Wasn't the DVS race at clipsal for this year meant to be canned, before it made it's way back on to the calendar ?

Correct and Correct

the ferrari challenge dropped out and Dunlop was back in

Its a costly openerat Clipsal, first race in and rookies are between the walls and going around tricky turn 8

I'm guessing we will be in exactly the same position next year, no Dunlop at clipsal, then 4 weeks later, Dunlops at clipsal

Interesting that the two main test tracks, Winton and QR, are not on there.

And more surprising that about half of the tracks are street circuits. Some of the these guys run on shoestring budgets and street circuits are famous for being car-crunchers.

Seems Prodrive are expanding to two cars. And one driver is being lined up for one of their cars

If you are paying the bills as a sponsor, you would certainly hope that is the case

Male or female, a cashcow's ability will always be questioned.

Mine isnt a sledge as to gender. Just dont consider that the driver in question is the most on-track competitive option available. Might help make the books balance however.

Happy to be proven wrong, but history is not kind in this instance..
