Goat Boy has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Just looked it up. The company, New Zealand V8 Touring Cars Ltd was incorporated in 2002 (so nothing new there) and is 100% owned by..... Motorsport New Zealand!

Here's a list of the directors, you will notice they have all been appointed in March this year:

Ian BOOTH
Residential Address: 50 Eclipse Rise, Flagstaff, Hamilton, 3210 , New Zealand
Appointment Date: 13 Mar 2013

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ross CAMERON
Residential Address: 56 Mcmeakin Road, Abbotsford, Dunedin, 9018 , New Zealand
Appointment Date: 13 Mar 2013

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Michael John ROSS
Residential Address: 14 Rowling Place, Leamington, Cambridge, 3432 , New Zealand
Appointment Date: 18 Mar 2013

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kevin SHAW
Residential Address: 88 Buffalo Beach Road, Whitianga, Whitianga, 3510 , New Zealand
Appointment Date: 13 Mar 2013
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So what this says to me is that Motorsport New Zealand have set up another competition, despite publicly saying that they wanted ST on board, but it would seem the likes of Budd and co. have prevailed over the likes of Crunch, so we are going to continue to have a split series and will continue to have damage done to the sport. Well done, people, you certainly have your own interests at heart rather than those of motorsport (as we all knew anyway).

Will this be another Gold Star championship with 5 cars again? Good chance of getting a top three finish then...

Another point of interest, is that its registered office is with Map and Associates - our mate Mr Fine still involved, then. The more things change the more they stay the same, as the saying goes.
