What If Scenarios?
Okay what happens in Virgin Supercar land after the race 3 debacle at Symmons Plains,
1. With Will Davison out for today's race, and if the car was repairable could they put another driver in for today's race? 2. Could Ricky Kelly takeover another team members car for today's race? 3. Can another team hire in a car from another team for today's race? |

2. In theory yes but unlikely 3. Yes but DVS teams would want big money to miss out on a championship points race |

1. Yes, and there is precedent
2. No, drivers have to run the cars they brought & entered Unless you recall Owen Kelly/David Besnard at Bathurst with Glenn Seton **Cough****Cough****Cough** 3. No, refer #2 |

Rick moving to the Paul Dumbrell car at Bathurst in 2008 after his own car was badly damaged with Paul Radisich driving was in the era when teams could pair full time drivers. Also teams could change their driver pairings up until close of play Friday, Glenn Seton did it in 1995 sending Allan Grice to join Alan Jones and bringing in David Parsons.

rules on scenario 1
Supp rules for tassie 2.1.4 No change of Drivers will be accepted later than 1700 (AEST) on Thursday 6th April 2017 unless exceptional circumstances, as determined by the Stewards, warrant a change after that time. main rules D8.3 Multiple Drivers 8.3.1 Save for Rule D8.3.2, and where an additional Driver is permitted in practice, only 1 Driver per Car is permitted to compete in any Event. (8.3.2 covers enduro races) Pretty much a driver is locked in to a car for the event, changes have occurred before races , but never once a race has started Thus i would believe that no change would have been allowed overnight in this case |

A driver change occurred in a sprint race in 1988. Anyone care to have a guess at who the drivers were?

A driver change occurred in Tasmania back in '09/'10-ish, where Mr McConville stepped in for Mr Bright after he sustained an injury during one of the races that weekend.
