Who would they welcome?

and besides isnt he really just replacing a Holden team,

did they say thanks for the good times PMM?

and be confident that if FB was around when Lowndes jumped ship, they would have welcomed him "Guess who got a new Ford for Christmas"

Half right... he's ditched his single Ford for two Holdens. One being new and never raced. Be interesting to see where the other 888 Holden chassis goes now... LDM? Or keep it to run Owen?

currently PMM 2 holdens Webb 1 ford
next year Webb 2 holdens DJR 1 Ford

result , no real change

although 2013 might be more interesting in the split

Reminds me of an old joke.

What do you get when you mix an agnostic dyslexic with an insomniac ?

Someone who sits up all night & wonders if there's a dog

Thats OK GTR, as Garry Rogers says he doesn't need to settle on a driver until March

Maybe some of the other stuff is a bit more important though....

Experienced crew who have shown over the last couple of years that they are totally incapable of extracting any speed out of a Triple Eight chassis, I don't know that I'd be rushing out to hire ex-PMM guys if I was running Tekno

Powder room whispers have DJR with 4 cars next year. No word on who yet but it would seem the other Morris licence and car(ex Tecno) could be heading there

Don't know anything about "powder rooms" but that speculation came to
light some 4 or 5 weeks ago and has been discussed here previously.
Perhaps the "powder rooms" on some sort of delay???
