Chahda Stays With LDM

Is that a big f-u to the powers that be?

It is also curious that a pilot who acknowledges he ran a low budget program these past few years appears to have the command over a budget that can almost seamlessly switch to the Dunlop series if needed.

Odd..

Anyone else find it funny that Kurt Kostecki is being linked with the seat in this article. But it looks like Chahda is doing the right thing here hopefully he steps into the DVS

Confirmation the LDM seat is now looking like a three horse race between Kurt Kostecki, Aaron Russell and Andre Heimgartner
Wasn't Kostecki's efforts as fill-in a catalyst for bringing in the Superlicense?

It's a test day they won't release liveries until closer to Clipsal. Also Matt seems to be testing as part of Super2 preparations by the articles flying around not Supercars

Super2 teams have been invited to enter wildcards for the Winton, Barbagallo, Hidden Valley and Queensland Raceway championship events.

The program, which has already received strong interest from several teams running cars in Super2, is designed to give youngsters experience in the main series before graduating full-time.

If Andrew Jones can not run as a wildcard entry This would also rule out Jack Perkins in the rumoured Walkinshaw Racing backed Dragon / Image Racing wildcard entry to get extra seat time for the enduros along with his drive for Dragon / Image in the Dunlop Super2 Series.

Absolutely. They're both 2015 builds, plus both lads are in the tools at Triple Eight, and have some race day help from the Triple Eight boffins.

You wouldn't get that sort of luxury at LDM.

Seems a bit weird to have Mega Fuels on the Bottle O car.. and still supported by Castrol (which is really BP) as shown on the team's merchandise...

I'm a fan and hoping for the best. But this stuff coming out of the Kelly's is pretty much the equivalent of David Coulthards 'I'm ready to challenge for the championship this year' during the entire Schumacher era

New Erebus liveries are amazing. Dale wood will be running #99 not the usual #4 for Erebus. Also confirmation the Luke Youlden #9 and Chris Pither #4 will be the codrivers
