At least Larko didnt punt Bargs to keep his own driving career alive, that speaks volumes for Larko's character I would have thought

Larko's character is impeccable...that's why he owns two older GT's (XW&XA).

An interesting arrangement Larko has secured is the engine supply contract he has put together for 2004.
It now seems that SBR will supply Ford powerplants on a lease basis to the LMS team, at or near their own current specification, for cars #10 and #20 for the season. A quick and easy way to get a 10% horsepower gain without going thru the long, tedious and expensive path of developing your own technology in this area. |

No need nor budget to go Konica racing at the moment for them.
I presume if you wanted their 2003 championship winning AU, or the other shell that can easily be built up into a racer, the line forms at the transporter at Eastern Creek this weekend |

Has he ruled out a return to the long distance events like LP?

No, but I dont think he will get the miles during the year, and will accumulate rust like LP managed only a year out of the saddle
