One of the three claims sounds good to me...

I did post a few days ago that there would be some news that would set this forum alight.......
Doesn't OMSE announce its drivers on Wednesday? Mark |

Bakkerud to Eriksson was the claim I meant.
However, as it is clear now that Foust has left OMSE him to VW of America (using Marklund) has a better sound again. I think I was at the right path, but got a Red Herring from someone who was in the know. And Tohill to LDM sounds also better now. |

I wish they're make an offical announcement. I'm so curious to see who ends up on what team. I have a feeling it's going to be an exciting year.

So Mark, when is the news likely to be announced which will light up the forum. Its obviously not the Foust move to VW as you were as surprised as us all he didnt feature in the OMSE line up. So any more clues as to who and when............. ?? |

I wasn't surprised by Tanner. I was surprised by Topi. I knew about Foust and also about Bakkerud, Wiman, etc. Also that Scott Speed has a ride in the GRC (not w/OMSE).
Never claimed to know about Tohill but knew Deegan was doing far fewer events in 2014. Maybe that isn't enough to light up the forum? But, as I posted in another thread this has been a fun off-season so far and am hoping a couple more moves to come to fruition. Guru - is the first ever rallycross 'silly season'?! Mark |

Defo not, but the 'most silly season ever' for me.

Sounds about right.
I guess part of it is that we're seeing multi car teams now, people like OMSE, Hansen, LD etc running multiple cars is a bit different to what we've seen in the recent past. Previously it's been a case of car+driver is the team but now we're seeing people running multi car teams but not necessarily driving themselves (it goes for SET as well I suppose). Gives us something to speculate about until the action starts again doesn't it? |

I heard a rumour that Tanner Foust is joining Andretti racing. Anyone know if it's true?
Also heard that he'd been spotted testing a VW in France. |

I got a call about sponsorship this week from Andretti on a phone number only a few people have. WOnder whose address book that came out of........
And rest assured if Best Buy come back in the US it would be with OMSE and Marcus. Never the same for me since X Games LA. Mark |

Guess I was almost right with at least 2/3 predictions - Will we get an LD announcement soon?
Any word on Derek Tohill's 2014 campaign? |
