Wait on, GTR. Mr McKay's regular column appeared in the Sun-Herald yesterday, so what gives? On the Paddy's Markets ad during the F1 race last night, they said 13 drivers would be present, while giving six 'prominent' driver's names out. Question is, has another driver been added to the lineup, for the SMH says 14?

On a similar subject, Ford is holding one of its V8 Superstar Superbreakfasts in Newcastle on Aug 12 (Wests Leagues Club). Tickets are $85 apiece, according to a story in Saturday's Drive section of the Newcastle Herald.
Who's going? BTW, GTR, what's this about Peter Mackay? His column was in yesterday's Sun Herald. |

In the "Mixed Grille" section of the Saturday SMH, Mr McKay announced that after 18 years, he was not continuing with this column... presumably also including other motorsport works as well...

For those who are interested, my local rag suggests 15 drivers will be in attendance at Paddys Markets, with the extra inclusion to GTR Magics list being Jason Bargwanna.
