The fact he did it with PRA shows that triple 8 aren't invincible

HJs have featured on the Mostert machine, so perhaps increased involvement there?

Yep hungry jacks weren't revealed at the first livery unveil last year as well they were only unveiled just before Clipsal, personally I reckon they'll likely have jumped over to #55 to get some more bang for there big bucks

Unfortunately PRA have also somehow shown that they fluked the setup that year and they haven't managed to get near it since.

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
One of the last things left from SBR... losing the #4.. been there since 1998, won a Bathurst, and a championship, now thrown aside like yesterday's newspapers...

I know this team has wrecked the legacy, not so much team this year but one of the drivers saying no I don't want number 4. It has a lot of heritage in it

Yeah I'm not a fan of the #99 selection they should've kept the #4 imo but car looks amazing

They were somewhat outpaced for the most part, in the latter stages of the season. Never really recovered after the enduros in 2015.

Yum brands was formerly owned by Pepsico, but this only includes KFC in Australia.

Seems silly to not allow the likes of an Andrew Jones, or a Paul Dumbrell, or a Jack Perkins from putting together the funding to do a wildcard.

A lot had to do with what happened at Bathurst, Frosty didn't have a decent driver who was good with set ups.
