With so much under one roof it won't be long until they make a decision someone likes and then they become the enemy

I am pulling for ARG to succeed but see a lot of similarities to Ross Palmer/Procar which is worrying. |

Are they fan-driven, or competitor-driven?

No interest from Nine.
Probably no surprise, but at one time they telecast Formula Holden live. 1990? |

7 head of Sport has left the building.

Supercars claim IP infringements by TA2
In a new angle to try and stop TA2 from being at Adelaide, Supercars now claim the TA2 series is encroaching on an IP issue. Seamer says: “It’s a bit hard to talk about IP and commercial discussions with manufacturers. I am not stonewalling you. There is a category that runs Mustangs and Camaros that needs to get their IP approvals.” |

BS.
How does the likes of Sports Sedans get by this? Simple; there's no hand out, waiting on money for the privilege. |

Auto Action is about two weeks behind in reporting that. Matt Braid is/was apparently not concerned about it.

Until you hear Ford or Holden (or Dodge for that matter) complaining about this, it is entirely fabricated. How does Seamster know that there isnt a deal between Ford and the people that built the TA2 cars?

These TA2 cars have been around for a bit. If Chev/Ford/Dodge had a problem with them then it would’ve happened five seconds after the first car hit the track

IP approval?
Is that why the (Supercars) Mustang looks the way it does? To avoid this issue? |

Are Supercars drivers banned from talking about categories (or some categories) on the ARG programs? Interview with GT after practice today where he said he is not rusty because he has been racing in GT cars "and some other racing".

He knows what side is bread is buttered on. The crew is Supercars TV after all and TCR isn't going to give Garth his next job...
