Quite possible given their close ties over the last few years.

Haven't yet seen anything from Tekno declaring their continuation in the series post SVG?

Would save T8 building a car(s) for SVG that with such a limited life span.

I did read somewhere on Saturday that Johno Webb is staying on and will be looking for a driver in 2016.

VAN GISBERGEN TO JOIN THREE-CAR TRIPLE EIGHT IN 2016

Quote:
While Triple Eight is yet to reveal which Racing Entitlements Contract it will utilise to run Van Gisbergen, Tekno Autosports owner Jonathon Webb confirmed that his team will continue to field its entry with another driver.
“Obviously we are sorry to be losing Shane at the end of the year; we have shared a lot of success over the past two years and we are looking forward to another fantastic year together in 2015,” said Webb.
“I have had a long relationship with Roland and Triple Eight Race Engineering and we look forward to working together into the foreseeable future with a new face behind the wheel of our race car.”

Could we see a full grid next year?

DJR TP is thinking of going 2 cars, 888 will be 3, Tekno could expand to back to 2?

With Charlie once thinking of selling his #18 REC last year, got me thinking of who owns which contract for the cars at Walkinshaw? Is car #47 owned by Walkinshaw himself or not? As with the possibility of a Ford Dealer Team coming up, (either from FPR....I mean Prodrive Australia or DJR-Penske) could we see the old HSV Dealer Team resurface from the ashes of the Kelly-Walkinshaw split of 2009?

I'm guessing he will pair up with the Tekno car in the pits (presumably driven by Mr Webb or someone with shitloads of cash)

And finished ahead of a lot of bigger names.

But it shouldn't be a surprise, we all know Mark can drive, don't we?

So its believable, and the release was dated yesterday, but it is April 1st.

Why would he be working on the "number 4 iseek entry"? Last i heard #4 was run by Ash Walsh for Erebus. Why would they need approval from "Ford America"?
