Could be - particularly when the lawyer quoted in the Speedcafe article was a full time employee of Mr Gore's and travelled with the race team to all race meetings.
Do seem to recall the card livery on the safety / course cars being removed pretty suddenly due to payment default so that does sound familiar. |

Its kinda like if you win some money on the horses/pokies/lotto
You find so many new friends and relatives you dont remember last speaking to you, but they are your mates because they think you have money that you might be encouraged to share. V8Supercard was a flawed concept, relying on more than the 20,000 cardholders mentioned to make the thing fly. How do you compete against credit cards with rewards programs? With only 20,000 people using the thing, most likely paying balances in full each month, the short answer is.. you don't! But why let commercial reality get in the way of what seems may be a frivolous lawsuit... I wonder if VESA might spend a penny to make this go away? |

I thought Gore and Cochrane were BFF? Maybe there's trouble in paradise.
