Radisich and TKR

Guss · 12 Jun 2005, 07:39 (Ref:1326114)

Congrads and great effort for the smallest team in the v8 supercar paddock (TKR)

Great pit stop and great driving from Paul, ( he was also sick with food poisoning onSunday) great effort

**GTRMagic** · 12 Jun 2005, 07:46 (Ref:1326118)

Just wait till they get the new-spec PMM engine

Guss · 12 Jun 2005, 07:57 (Ref:1326125)

I believe Radisich is back to the competitive level and TKR,
credit is due ( thank you) awesome

Bring on The Alan Drader engines, next round hopefully

Evomike · 12 Jun 2005, 21:41 (Ref:1326777)

That was an awesome effort and all the more so considering the food poisoning. The car was clearly down on power down the straights, but in the twisty bits it was quick.
To Paul, David, Martin, Bernie, Mike & Gene and the rest of the team including the volunteers who help make this team. Well done we can tick another achievement of the "To do list".

Fantastic job from all at TKR.
It's great to see Paul Radisich competitive at the sharp end - not long ago there was a serious danger his career was fading. Now, even with a case of the Rat poison...

blimmin beautiful.
Good stuff TKR; great to see The Rat chargin' again

I think TKR signing Radisich is one of the best driver signings in recent years.

Well done to everyone at TKR.

Razor · 16 Jun 2005, 03:53 (Ref:1330040)

All I can say about Paul and TKR is: That's Gold.

Timu · 17 Jun 2005, 02:01 (Ref:1331214)

A brilliant effort by the boys, Allans engine will be a huge improvement in the top end power too.

Three years ago if you had of said Radisich was on the podium, in a Holden, for Team Kiwi, at a place called Shanghai, I would have chuckled.... Brilliant effort to everyone involved.

Uncle Cranker · 17 Jun 2005, 02:44 (Ref:1331224)

A huge congrats to Paul, but especially to TKR.

There is a lot of water under the bridge since Jason Richards,

a) creamed a seagull into T1
and b) hit the wall at Southern loop during a testing day at Phillip Island, 2 weeks prior to the 2001 SCS.

Oh & Angus Fogg had to ride back to Melbourne in the transporter too, after not getting a lap in the car.

[btw Greg Ritter was testing the Imrie road rocket, that day too]

Then failing to record a lap in V8SC 'pre-qualifying', would have had people doing some soul searching. http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/re...3/2001.PHIL.P8

Some interesting names in the pre-qual group for the round....

flyingduck · 17 Jun 2005, 03:12 (Ref:1331228)

Have to add in my congrats to the boys now only two more positions to move up go the rat.

It was good with Paul grabbing 3rd in China. The bad part about TKR is it's number, #021. It should go back to #14.

What is it bad?

Because it can get confusing. Brad Jones races under #21 while TKR is #021. I know people who get confused by those numbers.

Antrodemus · 23 Jun 2005, 02:10 (Ref:1337866)

Is Vodafone still associated with the team? If not, keeping 021 makes no sense, apart from continuity.

Rombles1 · 23 Jun 2005, 04:02 (Ref:1337908)

While not necessarily supporting the idea of them changing their number, 69 (which has to be the coolest number out there) would fit with their stable-mate Mr Morris, with 67.....

Hi All

Yes, Vodafone are still associated with the team as seen here .

Antrodemus · 23 Jun 2005, 04:14 (Ref:1337915)

Or if they want to merge the Vodafone link with the Morris link, they could use 77 (they did run 777 for a while)

Maybe Brad Jones should change his number, his isn't sponsor related.

**GTRMagic** · 23 Jun 2005, 10:12 (Ref:1338143)

BJR apparently tried to get #11 to go with their #12 earlier this year, but someone in a red, white and green team seemed to have a difference of opinion on that.

Maybe next year when TPR needs some CPR...

God damm Richo and Perkins. Should have got new numbers, instead of still using #11. Should have gone to #24 for Dumbrell and #42 for Richards. I think that Autobarn might replace Castrol. Or some other random company might get the main sponsorship.

Razor · 26 Jun 2005, 05:58 (Ref:1340227)

With TKR's driver, Paul Radisich, has never driven a Holden until the beginning of this year when he joined TKR. He has driven for the Blue Oval 78 times and has had 3 round victories and 2 poles in his V8 career.
