If Whiskas doesn't get on board this car, they're missing a wonderful opportunity.

Their last foray into the DVS was with a very speedy Wayne Wakefield, in a very low-budget team. Tough act to follow.

His wagon was never referred to as the Pussy Wagon though...

AA this weeks reckoned that Todd Hazelwood was on the cusp of being signed to lead the PRA Dunlop series program for 2016, in a CotF FGX..
The story goes that Mr Mostert's Bathurst shunt means there is a scarcity of chassis, and a new one will need to be built for Mr Mostert's return, freeing up the current #6 stand in to Dunlop series duties. So the price went up. Apparently. |

AA also implies that LDM is looking to run a CotF chassis in the Dunlop series. No pilot named, no budget announced... just discussing a desire to increase cash flow for the main game squad.
Maybe... |

He hasn't hinted as much in his media activites, but isn't slowing down on generating new backing, that's for sure.
Shame he couldn't hang onto a global brand in Tecalemit. |

I had heard that there was interest from the Rullo family to run both boys in the series out of LDM

Were they the family who bought a pair of Triple Eight chassis?

Can't he give Tim Edwards some snags and call it even? . In all seriousness that's sad to hear that Hazelwood was close to a good deal which appears to have gone pear shaped. |

Could go either way.
They've been a formidable combination. |

Meanwhile, there's rumbling that Ms Gracie is linked to some sort of Holden-badged deal for next season.

Some chatter doing the rounds that V8SC will soon clarify which versions of the CotF shapes will be eligible next year. I would hazard a guess that it will be as per 2013 homolgation, so no FG-X, S60, VFII, or Altima bodywork from '14/'15.
The thought process, I suspect, being to assist the main game teams in exhausting redundant stockpiles of parts, and presumably preventing them from using their DVS programs to circumvent testing restrictions. |

If they were on the ball, they could've leased two of them out to supplement their main game budget for the other two complete cars.

Similiarly given you can reskin cars are per the CotF mantle, why use old panels like the original FG? I think they are better off just keeping the 'spec' of both series the same. |
