And yet... the bloke driving the Alfa was rejected from a Porsche junior scholarship, and largely nowhere on a regular basis in his Super2 efforts... and is running second in the TCR championship...

While the winner seems to also have a propensity to chuck his Supercar rides into the scenery more often than not...

It is little wonder the imported fellows, including 'Frog on the Grog' make merriment with that field...

O'Keefe is a strange one - was a few years in Porsche Cup and was toweled up by Jaxon Evans, had 2 chances with Porsche and for one reason or the other didn't get through - he doesn't seem to be polished enough on camera etc...judged against his peers. I would like to see him stay in TCR and give it a shot overseas - I think he is our best TCR driver so far this year.

Up and down a bit but has been impressive but not as consistent as Will Brown. Alfa seems to have lost a bit of pace in latest rounds . Veterans Bright and Tander have impressed occasionally with a couple of wins and ingall has been OK.

One is brand new, so perhaps a Veloster is on it's way?

So another team has "taken control" of the Subarus from Kelly Racing according to TCR Australia.

So Kelly's never owned them then despite how it was presented.

All the original cars, bar two of the Walden Hyundais (of which only one was raced at SMP and the other has yet to be seen) and Jason Bright's Golfs, were purchased/owned by ARG IIRC.

Since then, there has has been one more HPO I30N, an Audi RS3, a Civic, an Alfa, 2 Cupras and maybe one more RS3 purchased by teams I think.

Now the Subarus have been transferred to a new team we should see them out for 2020 - hopefully sorted or even better re-homologated. I see the Astras going the same way - with KR being FORD orientated now - if what went on at Tickford was at the manufacturer's request.

MPC owns the Golf and the black Audi.

All the Hyundais are privately owned as far as I know.

Thanks - stand corrected. I thought Cameron's MPC golf was supplied with the two RS3s in the first batch from ARG - so that is not the case then I see.

Subarus have been overhauled, prepped and tested for the Bend by Milldun.

They claim to have sorted issues and feel they will be more reliable.

Drivers TBA.

Does anyone know many cars are entered for the bend?

Over 20.

Yet three Hyundais lay dormant.
