If I may ask, from where did you develop such an inaccurate assumption about the chassis of a GT4 car? I ask because I'm pretty certain you've confused it with another class(there are several you could have mixed up) and I'd like to more accurately clear this up for you. Rich07 already did a good job of simplistically detailing the differences from GT4 and Supercars, but I'd like to make sure the basis for your initial assumption is cleared up as well.

Supercars is a racing car made to look like a road car, which bears no relationship to the road car apart from the external shape. |

I would love it if the Supercars Mustang looked like the car in question, though, but the regs will prevent that. Quote:

Talking about the Camaro, I did up a quick list of current Holden teams and basically split them down the middle between the ZB and Camaro.
ZB - 888 Tekno Erebus GRM Camaro - BJR Preston Hire WAU It worked out 8 ZB's to 6 Camaro's. If you wanted it even and have 7 either side, you could bring Tekno to the Camaro side and maybe join the other single car there Car 18, which would suit number wise when i realized Tekno is 19....but ultimately ZB is still very new and the has had plenty of money spent to develop it. |

Errebus would aide with WAU, and Tekno is a full customer 888 operation so those two would be unlikely to be placed like that. I just don't see who is coughing up the dough to homologate it, even if WAU has capability.

What do we think may happen with car 18? read a story recently about the disadvantage of not being able to share data with another car. Could they team up with BJR make 4 car team?

How has this Camaro talk gotten this far?
The car is not sold in Australia. HSV offering it for sale later this year will not make it eligible for Supercars without GM approval. GM have thrown their lot in with Triple 8 who have spent a motza getting the ZB program up and running and will want to make their money back. There will be no Camaro Supercar until the end of the ZB program. The 18 car was in a 4-car setup and left to set up their own operation. Would seem like a waste of time if they moved back into another's team's setup |

Team 18, Tekno, and BJR, are likely to do whatever Triple Eight does.
The rest could go either way. But as said, we're all jumping at shadows here. |

Remember the survey about the Camaro was "do you want to see one" not "do you expect to see one". Big difference.
(and the answer from me-1.Yes, 2.No) |
