Maybe this will mean Jimmy has to keep driving until young Clayton Richards is ready to take over. Quote:

Ellery was definately in discussion with PCR for the V8 gig, but am not sure if they had talks about the Porsche. I presume they did and when bringing money along was mentioned he walked. I have been told he will drive for Sherrin anyway. it seems reasonable enough as a friend of mine suggested he was doing quite a bit of Driver Training this year and Sherrin are heavily involved in that side of things, so it would seem a perfect fit. |

From what i have been told Ellery did not want to sit out another year only doing the enduros. He apparently had spoken to quite a few Supercar teams re getting a drive. Driving for Sherrin makes more sense than PCR as PCR's books seem to be full.

The powder room has suggested that Mr Tratt is quite busy enjoying his role as Toll's man on the ground at HSVDT.... and that last year's Bathurst shunt suggested to him that unless you are in the drivers seat full time.. its a hard old slog to come out in the enduros and play....
Mr Fernandez was required to have a seat in some series or other as part of his contract with Britek. Presumably Britek are also running the Porsche too... |

It shall be interesting to see how he adapts to the left hand drive, sequential gearbox, low COG, stiffly sprung etc Porsches............. Quite a different beast to a V8Supercar. |

Interesting to see Mr Fitzgerald is trying to source a driver for his car for the season... interested parties require '$200k+".....

Apparently Sherrin Motorsport went testing at QR yesterday with all 3 cars. Dave Russell apparently the fastest and Ellery hot on his heals. Steve's car suffered some sort of mechanical problems during the day hindering his test and limiting his track time. Shaun Juniper also continued to improve.
This is the teams last test before Adelaide from what I have been told. |
