Yeah I saw that also GTR. Haven't heard anything about the project he's involved in since early 2015 so figured it was dead.

A multi car team with AMG assistance should be strong..

Maybe they can run from the Erebus shed Mr Hackett built when they are finished with it

Just a thought, is Hacketts car part of the rumoured AGT program to involve Rusty French and a couple of AMG GT's?

***AMG has yet to disclose how many of its new cars have been sold, although no fewer than eight Mercedes-AMG GT3s are set to be delivered this month. Four are bound for Australia, with two to Japan and a pair of cars to the U.S., for the new Weistec Engineering team in Pirelli World Challenge.

If Hackett ran anything with Erebus I'd be highly surprised considering how they parted ways.

But then again HTP are now running Mercedes again in Europe after they switched to Bentley in anger after being passed over for a shot at DTM so any things possible.

Erebus doesn't have exclusivity with connection to AMG Customer Sports.

Mr Hackett built the initial infrastructure for Erebus GT to go racing, so with the right patronage, would likely easily be able to replicate that... perhaps even better the second time round...

Can the Trophy Series be likened to a Dev V8 Series?

I'd say so. I think it provides a good avenue for guys looking to step up from state level Production Sports Cars, rather than having to step straight into the GT Championship.

I'd love to see Erebus to run two New Callaway GT3's here. One would think thats on the cards as Corvette meant to be sold in Aus at some point in the future.

Sounds like a good money spinner, I guess Betty isn't buying the new AMG but has decided to run others instead.
