Speedcafe reporting that Gisbergen has had some surgery, after a mountain bike accident.
Hopefully he won’t miss the Sandown round. |

Barry goes off again
According to AA article. Barry claims the previous engineers and drivers don't work as a team and they all had big egos. ( Barry was the other engineer with the absence of Mr McV.)
Translation - Nobody would listen to me and it is my way or the highway. |

What a very very immature statement. My thoughts of the EX Penrite racing team are now diminishing. |

![]() All that had to be done was build two more Falcons, put the various stickers on and go racing up the front with van Gisbergen or Engel, plus Slade and Holdsworth... Yet now Matt Stone Racing is effectively the continuation of the Queensland team and Erebus is an unrelated team in Melbourne. It's all very odd! |

Can you explain whose fault it is then? I am of the understanding that Betty owns the team, does the hiring, and generally has things done to her satisfaction. Not sure who else could be blamed for taking a front-running championship team and moving it straight to the other end of the grid the very next season, and never really recovering from it.

It's a shame what has happened to the team since he took over, but yes they were in worse shape before he took over. He certainly bought in the money that was absolutely necessary. At least they now have the money to keep the team going, even if they have lost a lot of personnel. But he needs to find a way to keep enough people in the team, otherwise there is no point

Last year though, would've been a challenge for many - I know it would've been for me - as everyone lived under "one roof" for months on end, without any real "Barry breaks". I had a flatmate like that once. It got to a point that I either had to move out, or I was going to be growing giant-sized potatoes in the vege garden. |

I think T888 came to the 1/4 party by announcing Whincup and Dane were going to swap roles next year... JW as principal (as we already knew) and RD driving the #88 |

Motorsport.com are reporting an Engine tweak for the Holden teams this year, but Supercars say there is NO increase in engine Power. We will see.
