Mindspin13B should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Lizards, AMG, 2010?

As I was walking through the paddock this weekend I caught the tail end of a conversation as I was walking along. Didnt catch much, basically the key words are "Lizards, AMG, 2010"

Anyone else hear anything on this?

Lizards = Flying Lizard Motorsport, 3 car works supported Porsche team.

AMG = Mercedes tuning arm.

Can't see any connection.

2010 is a while away, FL's Porsche connection is not guaranteed beyond Laguna, we know that at some point they will consider their GT2 Porsche goals achieved, and Porsche works teams are rarely ultra-long-term. Outside the realm of possibility? Hardly. There is never any connection until there's a connection.

That'd be interesting. New CL55 perhaps? Would be a very welcome addition to the field.

I heard Mario Andrettis name and Porsche mentioned for 2010, so i just assumed that they were talking about Mario running the new Porsche P1 multi car team next year...

Lizards like basking in the sun, Germans like going to the Mediterranean to bask in the sun on their holidays.

Clear as day connection!

I hope they have that in triplicate and have balanced their budgets about 8 times over, because with the financial state of the world these days and the fact that they already are receiving a lot of support for 2 cars, I would not be holding my breath for more in their position.

On the other hand, P2 for Lizards in '09 would be stepping up support...rumour-mongering ahoy.

That was to give Salo the impression he was doing well while the Lizards cruised to both GT2 drivers and team titles?

All I can say is if the Lizards drop Porsche or vice versa, Badger and Dario911 will drop a load right on the spot!

It's also a good example of a rumor that a certain bear chose to ignore as not worthy of "print."
