Where are the RECs coming from?

Or are they just talking up another attempt at DVS?

Is Dragon the Australian version of Team Kiwi Racing of a few years ago? Grand plans and big dreams, but no money to back them up?

Sounds to me like they are running a DVS campaign in cahoots with a main game team.

With Peckstar's experience in running a race team perhaps he can enlighten us to what costs there might be that aren't immediately obvious.

How very true. it is amazing the number of race cars that sit idle because the costs to race and maintain them them are not understood before they were bought. I doubt anyone who has not raced can even begin to comprehend the costs associated with running a car.

I never said i ran a v8 team, how would I know. Don't be a DH!

However anyone can spend as much as they can afford on a race team, and they don't have to worry about the opinions of moron key board warriors who don't have the balls to do it themselves

As per rumours a few months back.

The no-Volvo thing is understandable, when they're struggling to keep things like engines alive as it is.

She should do quite well.

Third seat? I'm under the impression there were only two seats.

Good to hear, that young lady is underrated.

The only noise I've heard is two cars.

Whether she's done a cut-price deal to run the VE Mr Golding used this year, while he steps up to the CotF VF, we won't know yet. I wouldn't be paying a whole lot of attention to the Dragon press releases on where their cars are being utilised.

Also, it's been suggested that Ms Angelo's gig is self-funded to an admirable degree.
