Don't know what Supercars do if Ford is to pull out but certainly can't see any manufacturer rushing to help and prevent the category from collapsing. Ford withdrew from Supercars once, perhaps this would be managed this time as well. Would Supercars try and bring other manufacturers? In such a scenario probably yes but Walkinshaw's been trying for a couple of years and nothing's come of it.
So, either Mustangs carry on without Ford's backing or Supercars becomes a Chevrolet Camaro Cup - which would be terrible and unworthy of the Supercars name.
