HRO Driver Turnaround!!

[Scott75]

Just browsing through the new HRT 2003 catalog where I believe that it gives good evidence about where the drivers are heading. Firstly Bright is not going to Team Brock, in fact he is going to Kmart. The reason for me to say this is if you check Brights personal shirt it's in the colours of Kmart racing. Secondly Greg Murphy is going to Team Brock as his shirt is Gold and Black (same colours of Team Brock at Bathurst.
Todd Kelly I'm not sure as to where he is going as he doesn't fit into any team color, maybe Kmart as his shirt is Blue and White. I think Rick Kelly will be at HRT, not sure though. If anyone wants to check all this out go to www.hsv.com.au and then go to the Lions Den. Go to the 2003 catalog. See what you all think of my predictions, I could be completely wrong.

Are they paying your to advertise for HSV's Lions Den?

Hi All

Don't know if their clothing ranges give much of a hint to what teams they will be with, as Murphs has been black, orange and white for last 2 years, and Brights was blue last year.

Is the stuff in the 2003 catalog different to what is in the 2002 range on the HSV website? Can't find any 2003 drivers gear on there?

How did you get sent a catalog through the mail - do you have to be a club 1 member?

[Scott75]

Hello Tracy, No I'm not a Club 1 member so this is just me guessing. All I did was follow the prompts with the 2003 catalog and went to the drivers sections. Like i said when I orginally posted this that I could be wrong, which I am more often than not. Just thought it seemed odd that the drivers had these colors which matched the teams livery, I thought they would suit each team that they drove for. PS howz NZ these days?

[Tracy]

Hi All

Hmmm....if you click on the NZ location on the Lions Den page, you can't see the 2003 merchandise at all, so we have to pretend to be Aussies to see it

Scott - NZ is good (although I'm feeling grumpy that there is no motorsport on TV until the aussie grand prix because of the Americas cup yachting!). BTW do you guys get coverage of the V8's at the grand prix meeting on TV? I don't think we are getting any here?

Will it still be called Team Brock, On the V8 Supercar site at the very bottom of the team lists where the three TWR/ HRO teams are listed - Driverless, it has Paul Weel Racing listed.
As they are using Kees Weels Franchise maybe this will be its name instead of Team Come Back Man.

Tracy - We do get the V8 coverage at the Grand Prix, as yet the TV deal hasn't been announced but expect channel 10 to cover it. If you don't get any tv coverage of the V8's at the AGP, let me know as I will be taping it so if you want a copy to be sent to you let me know.

Scott - thanks for the offer - it would be great We get the Grand Prix live, but there has been no mention of the V8's, yet the same channel here covers both types of racing.

If anyone wants any NZ racing sometime, just let me know.

Tracey - Just let me know before hand and I will tape you a copy. Thanx also for your offer too.
