Larkham gone. Gee that relationship lasted a long time. I didn't expect Craig Gore to be able to take a back seat for too long.

I wonder what happened to Mr Larkham's "equity position" mentioned when the teams initially "merged"?

I guess Gore could only blame the drivers for so long.

Would Mr Larkham be useful to another team, with his breadth of experience in motorsport?

Going on the wording of the press release it would seem Mr Larkham may have to sit out for a while.

Mark Larkham gave the team some credibility. I would seem that will disappear again.

I guess that with poor Mark falling victim, the workshop sweepstake is alive well again. Glad I'm not playing the game of "Who's Neck's Next".....
....Restructuring is such a vague word and it smells of more sweeping to come...based on the previous track record of such occasions |

I do wonder what Jason Bargwanna's long term future with the team will be.

Strange as 2006 was the first year WPS actually seemed to improve and look at least a little racey at times during the year. I don't doubt that Larko had a fair bit to do with the improvment.
I wonder if Gore will ever figure out that stability within a race team helps breed success. Instead of re-organising for the future every year or two. |

I think the gun chassis engineer helped enormously, and his departure from the team mid-season was not a good step....

More stories to come from this team with rumours of chassis upgrades in the middle of the year. Seems this customer chassis business is reaky taking off.

So WPS is moving to Holden?
No other explanation makes sense to upgrade a Ford sometime midyear that will be obsolete by Christmas

Chanel 7 could do a lot worse then picking up Larko for something, he has always been interesting to listen to.
Would be a shame to see the two nice guy owner/drivers Larko & Seto out of the sport. |

Larko dropped from WPS Racing
Well it seems Larko has been dropped from WPS Racing.. Got the PR in me inbox the other day.. Apparently it was part of a restructure that Gorey was doing...
One suggests to me that possibly Larko and Gorey had a fallout? |
