Chaz would have to a safe bet.
Even if not out of contract, he would surely have a performance clause?
The alleged BMW / WAU deal seems dead too.
SCA now at 888...

I'd say either Mostert or Waters will be favourites or maybe Heimgartner.

Another one for Todd Hazelwood. I'd like to see what he could do in top line machinery.

T8 dont go for safe bets, they go for potential winners. I Like Hazelwood as a person but does he have the mongrel in him when it counts.
I remember watching JW and SVG banging doors at Surfers (before they were team mates), JW could have settled for second in the race to protect his championship but he wanted to win that race. That is the commitment that T8 look for.

The #88 car in 2005 might possibly have been an exception...

Under 30, eh? Well it has to be Waters then.
If Heimgartner goes to 888 instead of DJR, that would quite a failure by DJR.
Fullwood would be another excellent choice. I feel like Fullwood has already surpassed Hazelwood in the pecking order of rookies. Perhaps an outside chance for Mr. Le Brocq too?

Stealing a suggestion from the BTCC thread - Ash Sutton? Might not be bad left-field shout.

As much as I'd love to see Ash Sutton in Supercars, I doubt he could join the grid, especially in a team like 888. There was not a single driver in the history who came from abroad with no prior experience in Supercars and achieved success.
