The less-fancied Mr Pye was more than a match for him at times during 2016.

Do Holden really have the cash to splash, particularly on a car Australians simply don't want?

I'd say it's more about keeping people interested and passionate about the brand, rather than trying to sell the car itself. Subsidising parts from 888 perhaps?

If it's WAU surely it has to be Camaro

But if HSV are gonna convert it, it won't sell like Mustang is.

And it has a bluff front end like the Stang

If they could potentially make it fit the chassis better than Ford managed, they'll be in front to an extent in terms of popularity.

Sadly I am convinced the aesthetic issues are purely aggression for aero, and not directly caused by the chassis constraints.

But they can't say we made it ugly so it will be faster.

I just can't get over the nose next to the road car. It's munted.

RE: 2019 - Predicting DJRTP to win this years' championship in a 'gallop'.

2018 = 1988 championship
2019 = 1989 championship

History may indeed repeat.

Scott won Ford's 17th championship driving the 17 Car.

If you're into numbers, if Scott repeats this year, then Car 17 will Ford's 18th Championship in 2019 by a driver born in 1993 when Glenn Seton won his first Championship title

Michael has been out of the Supercar for quite some time. Most likely Jonno will once again be suiting up for Bathurst/Sandown/Gold Coast

A part time crew is obviously less expensive to operate, yet isn't likely as effective as a full time squad... focusing solely on how to get the most out of Mr Le Brocq and his ZB...

Interesting that 888 are looking to relinquish a GT car in Asia with Mr Van Gisbergen driving. Might have thought Mr Lowndes would run to keep the miles up...

Raises a couple of questions:

Are 888 getting a head start on where they think Supercars might eventually be heading?

Have they got the MB brake issue sorted out now?

I'm lead to believe the car belongs to the royals that purchased a pair of VF COTF chassis off them.

Brake issue was apparently a setup philosophy that relied too much on the ABS...
