2010 - The Silly Season thread.

[Carby650]

Well the season is over and we have 3 months of no V8's

I know there have been threads around Will leaving HRT and Courtney possibly going to HRT.

So lets start on the possibilities and speculation.

So far we know.

Will Davidson to FPR

Smashney to HRT = bugger :vpo:

I also think that Steven Richards might find himself a team BOC if Jason Richards is unable to recover from his tradgic illness in time.

So what about Murph? Will he get a full time drive next year.
With the shit going down a DJR will Steve Johnson find himself out of a drive?

Let the discussion begin

I think that you will find that Murph will be an endurance driver for Team Vodafone or HRT.

A lot of people have a go at Murph but he is one of the few drivers that has brand loyalty which is a breath of fresh air in this day and age.

Brand loyalty went out the window when they started this project blueprint crap. But thats a rant for another thread.

nothings set in stone but im sure they'll playing the media hype and something will be set in stone come the next day or two.


I hope murphy gets a drive and i reckon S.R could be the replacement for Rcihards till his back on track.

[Carby650]

Yep from all the talk I've heard he is going to HRT.
It looks like it migh be a reasonably quiet "trade" period this year.
Really the WD to FPV and JC to HRT are the only moves of any note that I know of.

I think Holdsworth could do better in a gun team..... maybe HRT ?

There was a brief rumour of Brighty to Ford - it would make sense he always changes when he starts to look competitive.

Bright is staying with BJR.

I like the GRM team and I think they can become competitive with the 2 drivers they have currently, GRM is great for up and coming drivers and Garry Rogers himself is a hoot. We need more in pitlane like him.

Couldn't agree more. Loved it last year when he dressed up like a grid girl because both drivers got into the top ten in qualifying.

That's not the reason why I like him (Well it is, but not the main reason). I've always liked him, because he's always been out spoken, honest, and rather colourful.

It wont be the same without him, so I hope he has found an enduro drive. I'm hoping with it's with HRT though.

FOON- I like GRM too, but I think they would be a bigger force with more funding from Holden. They've always had promise, but a bit hit, and miss. They were excellent in 2000, but haven't really been that consistent since those days.

[Carby650]

OK so it looks like Bargs has gone to BJR.

Vacancy at Kelly Racing.
Rumour is Murph to Kelly Racing. Almost like a team reunion really.

Dalberto to sell VE001 and switch to a FPR chassis.
