Out of control, unprofessional child.

Just like the Craig Gore and other big money idiots who were only ever interested in themselves. They throw their weight around and leave.

I'm just glad he was never considered to be a part owner of the category.

If he is looking for advertising only, then look no further than sponsorship of a AFL Team, more TV coverage than anything

It is an odd thing for Mr Nettlefold to do... but then he probably shouldnt be in the middle of a sponsor activity anyway..

The Black Wiggle knew which side his bread was buttered... maybe the RACE people still need to discover this

It sounds like amateur hour to me and he just cost the series a sponsor. Looking into my murky crystal ball I would be surprised if the ownership of SC has not changed within 12 months.

Adderton is a damaging, unstable idiot and the sport is better off without him.

He quit once before already and prematurely ended the career of Garth Tander as well as being directly responsible for the shutdown of GRM as a Supercar team.

Just an absolute petulant child.

Actually, PAYCE is a property developer and that sector at the moment is in crisis with massive delays and cost increases, and a number of players going to the wall.

I'd suggest Mr Boyd just needs cash for his business.

To be honest when anybody invests millions in a business or commercial venture they are in it for themselves to make more money. Thats how they got to be so rich in the first place. They arent a charity.

but im no fan of this man or his company and his way of treating people

There's not many people in Supercars actually making a profit. Most of them will commercially get into it for commercial gain. But those like Gore and Adderton are different. Ruthless and selfish in equal measure and throw their weight around disproportionately to their importance.

For reference this is the last time Peter Adderton quit, taking GRM with him - end of 2019.

https://www.foxsports.com.au/motorsp...54ec73233633ef

He sponsored GRM for one year, killed Garth Tander's career, and ended GRM's participation in Supercars totally.

Wow!

Anyway, who will take over major sponsorship of the Erebus cars?

I'm surprised no one puts ATO stickers on their car as a thank you for the attributable tax losses

Adderton outlines plan for his team:
https://www.v8sleuth.com.au/adderton...percars-entry/

Are we ready for the whining should the last TRC be awarded to one of the existing teams, or if Team Boost is not immediately competitive?

Nothing stopping any other eligible potential of current entrant for also communicating with RACE and requesting a similar hearing to Mr Adderton

Perhaps Mr Blanchard will look to expand the squad? Or Mr Chahda finds the backing (other than Caltex who seem to have rumoured to land at Erebus next year) to step up. It likely wouldn’t suit BJR to own a 4th when it might displace a paying customer. Is MSR ready for a 3rd slot?

I would not presume that this is a walk up start…
