Interesting how they say they want all the engineering in-house. I take it their engine development program out of InnoV8 has been completed then? I wonder how that all went.

Looks like it. I'm hearing it could be Nick Percat's sponsor/look. They did the design and photoshoot for the 2013 Coastes Hire Porsche

According to a Google search ssMEDIA does work for V8 Supercar. Could it be the safety car livery?

What team would release their livery virtually on Christmas Eve?

Really. When I google it, it said "Official Graphic Artist of: - Porsche Carrera Cup Australia - Coates Hire Racing - John Bowe ... have a look at this fantastic work produced by Driven Productions."

Looks to me that Scott got well & truly 'shafted' .....

If you're NOT wanted/happy ... why 'hang around' ? (ie. 'Jumped' before he was 'pushed')

Best wishes Scotty, for whatever your future brings. Many thanks for ALL your expertise & hard work 2006-2010!!!

As in Mr Sinclair? Back to DJR?

The people responsible for designing the HRT COTF have seemingly left the building... is the job done now, or are the fingers being directed at places instead?

Well... Erebus arent strictly speaking a 'Merc team'... with their driving academy across a couple of different disciplines & categories.. they need a ladder system for their own charges to move up through to get to the SLS or to the V8Supercar program.

Lets not forget too that Erebus GT has that Peter Hackett-built shed in Moorabbin that doesnt get much use when the GTs are running overseas... if they run a ute program, it will be busy all year.. just repairing panels & chassis

Presumably they will run 2x Holdens, but I wonder if it might be a Holden & a Ford for fun

We shall see...

Betty has given that impression before.
Imagine though that there are cost saving with the same car.
Still Betty has given the impression that she likes a novel idea which would be both brands

Have they any proper outside funding for all these programs, or it all Betty?

These massive multi class programs rarely end well......

The plan as originally described some months ago had Erebus purchasing a V8Utes licence from an existing competitor who would then follow the licence, along with their sponsorship backing, to the new team.

Not sure if that's still the opportunity...

Nope,
They have a the car that Stephen White ran this year which at this point has no driver for next year and now the also have Cliffs No25 ute which was driven by Tony Longhurst this year which also has no driver for next year.
