None, zero, zilch.
Garry Rogers has a long history or running different types of cars - the mid '90's was an especially busy time for GRM in that respect.
Kelly Racing had been established a number of years prior to taking on the Nissan project.
And Erebus was running Mercedes in GT racing before purchasing the assets of SBR. Replacing managers, staff walking out, drivers refusing to honour contracts might be symptoms of a poorly executed business plan, but it isn't wasn't s start up business (team).

So erebus was a start up in 2011 , who purchased a supercars team the next year, swapped manufactures and is now top ten in the championship.
so Charlie Schwerkolt Racing also meets the criteria then? Currently 13th (midpack) in the championship and 3rd of the single car teams
