HCM today had to make some tuff calls today to let some of there drivers know that they won't be needed for the rest of the season. With the Globel Credit Crunch kicking in HCM has had to down size its operations and have just named 3 cars at next weekends meeting and also with that comes a new line up, Gone are Jack Perkins, Tim Slade and Jason Bright and the #444 car sold to Rick Kelly to help him reach the front this year and Joining Coulthard is Dumbrell and Caruso, We hope that this is a turn around for us and sees us back up the pointy end.

#111 - F. Coulthard - $800,000
#222 - P. Dumbrell - $600,000
#333 - M. Caruso - $600,000

We can also finally announce our new sponsorship deals for this season.

Team details are now as follows :

NAME: Rombles Racing
SPONSORS: Arbitrations and Mediations Pty Ltd, Elite Cranes
DRIVERS:
Todd Kelly
Michael Caruso
Jack Perkins
Dale Wood
MANUFACTURER: Holden (still!)

OK, I have given them time to shine, but unfortunately circumstances require further changes to the lineup for Rombles Racing. As of Townsville, we will be dropping Todd, Jack and Dale, and replacing them with Rick and Dave. Todd will be put to work as team engineer, as we believe he has lots to offer in that area, and we see his move as an unfortunate consequence of mechanical unreliability. Jack and Dale can take it in turns making coffee for the rest of the team, as part of our deal with additional sponsors, DeLonghi and Jasper Caffeine Dealers.

NAME: Rombles Racing
SPONSORS: Arbitrations and Mediations Pty Ltd, Elite Cranes, DeLonghi and Jasper Caffeine Dealers

Jose Motorsport would like to announce its final driver changes for season 2009 after relaising that having 3 drivers is just not logical,and it hinders our chances at winning the championship considerably

so Out of Jose Motorsport is
#111 Fabian Coulthard ($800,000)

and in is
#34 Michael Caruso ($600,000)
#23 Jack Perkins ($200,000)

So Jose Motorsport Driver lineup for the remainder of season 2009 is

#23 Jack Perkins ($200,000)
#24 David Renoylds ($200,000)
#33 Lee Holdsworth ($1,000,000)

Hissy fits and last minute changes ar Brendon Engineering Motorsport!!!

Motorsport Fiction can exclusivly reveal that Paul Dumbrell & David Besnard have walked out on Brendon Engineering Motorsport on the eve of the L&H 500 at Philip Island. We believe the split occurred late last night after both driver's met with team Owner/Manager Brendon. We hear that both driver's have got drive's lined up at Toll Holden Racing Team for Dumbrell and Garry Rogers Motorsport for Besnard. "No comment" was Brendon's reply when Motorsport Fiction asked Brendon this morning about the reason behind the split, Both driver's offered the same answer.

The team moved quickly to secure replacements for the departing duo in Cameron McConville and Craig Baird. Brendon was more forthcoming when asked about his late signings "yes thats right we signed them (McConvile & Baird). "Cam has had a solid year and he always goes well in the enduro's and i would like to thank Brad, Kim and the BJR team for letting Cam jump ship for these races at late notice. Brendon was also praising Kiwi enduro specialist Baird "Bairdo has proven himself in this form of racing so many times so i'm pleased to have him on board". "This is a great oppertunity for me and i must thank BJR for letting me come over". said Cameron McConville. Craig Bairds phone went to message bank when Motorsport fiction tried to contact him.

Motorsport Fiction also quizzed Brendon on the effects these late changes will have on the teams chances of winning the L&H 500 "It's not ideal mate but we are a professional outfit with professional driver's, we'll move forward this weekend and give it a red hot go".

Brendon Engineering Motorsport and the rest of the Ten Tenths V8 Supercar Fantasy Championship will be ontrack tomorrow when practice for the L&H 500 kicks off the season of endurance.

New driver line-up:
#8 - Cameron McConville ($600,000)/Michael Caruso ($600,000) - VE Commodore
#18 - Warren Luff ($400,000)/Craig Baird ($400,000) - VE Commodore
