On an aside, perhaps whoever sold the team the car has provided them with the data to go with it...

perhaps they have provided some data.

welcome moose.

With all due respect GTR, how is Walden any different to Thexton, with exception the lad may have some talent?

Or 3/4 of the field. If Thexton or anyone has the funding or sponsorship then so be it let them race if they can get a franchise. I don't know how may people have tried to secure $ for motorsport...trust me it isn't easy.

Mr Thexton purchased his franchise licence slot outright, approved by TEGA, and no black cloud over whether the transaction was within the spirit or application of the rules.

Mr Thexton's team had a full strength paid professional team, a current model car with an enormous complement of spare parts, a new dedicated workshop for the operation.

The majority of technical and financial elements were in place in the Thexton operation. The only question was over the speed of the driver.

Nope, the car painted red for Bathurst with a "Dont tax our Clubs" or similar branding was AU DJR9, the chassis run this season by Tim Monte for SST&B. It met an early end to its race, against a fence if memory serves me correctly...

Yes, it came to grief on the entry to the Dipper, which signalled the end of the AU in the 1000.

This red Elliot/Sydney Star AU was IIRC, the famous #18 bullet from 1999, and also the 4th place getter in the 2000 and 2001 Bathurst 1000s..............

Was the white Walden car ex-FPR, ex-GSR?

**GTRMagic** · 31 Dec 2006, 05:07 (Ref:1802056)

The white car is GSR's (in)famous "Silver Streak"... run by Mr Besnard in 2003.. after being codriven by him at Bathurst in 2002...

marcus · 31 Dec 2006, 06:11 (Ref:1802066)

I have found 3 Liveries for the car (the AU)

then this Blue version (which isnt a very good pic)

http://www.motorsport.com/photos/sel...=Garth_Walden#

and then of course the red one that Ran at bathurst

http://www.nmd.com.au/images/drivers...rst1000013.jpg

and amazingly none of them are the livery I remember , then again I could have the wrong car altogether in mind

All 3 of them have kissed the concrete at least once this past season...

Team banana is go!!!

Pro Racer · 3 Jan 2007, 10:54 (Ref:1804626)

they are old, had more hits than elvis (as Jason Richards would say), slow, loose and hard to fine tune because of the age and hits they have had, one of the Perkins cars that he has for sale would of been better IMO, but i supose you have to go where your budget is i supose.
