HRO/TWR ownership?

Im interested to know the latest with HRO/TWR ownership. People still seem to be obsessed with it being a HRT ownership problem, but its not; HRT, KRT and TB are all in strife.

Correct me if im wrong but TEGA's beef is with the fact that they don't want 6 cars being run out of clayton, am I right?

HRT being owned by GMH is just a temporary fix. Names like Skaife, Brock, Morris, Weel and corporate ex-TWR staff for example need only to be signed in name to fix that problem, no money needs to be exchanged.

But the 6 cars out of clayton is the problem, what are they going to do?

Whats the latest?

We done use HRO or that ghastly TWR name any more... the entity should be referred to as "Symbol", the race team formerly known as TWRA

The argument is 2 fold, Holden own HRT's franchise, and the 6 "Symbol" cars are based out of the same industrial park.

No word officially from anywhere, but I suspect one of them will move across the road to one of the up-for-lease buildings to build some artificial walls between them

K&J Radiator Industries operates out of Bendix Drive in Clayton, while the other 2 teams are inside the Clayton Business Park on Centre Rd Clayton.

The repairs to the Weel car are taking place as I understand it, inside the inner sanctum at HRT

If the "Symbol" team or one of them at least will not be allowed to run at Adelaide, how many lawyers will be on hand ready for action. I have heard that at least on Team will have some on hand awaiting developements.

Maybe there will be a new 'King' at the main "Symbol" team. I think something will be announced soon. I think there will only be one actual team ownership change though.

Any truth in the rumour that a Yellow and Silver car was seen being unloaded into the HRT workshop on the Friday arvo of the GP. Hope AVESCO didn't get a picture of that one?

I bet if the "Symbol" team reverted to my ownership, there would already be enough drivers contracted

Having said that of course, there would be nothing stopping a 6 car "GTRMagic REI" Konica team would there???
