Exactly, Skaife whilst I follow him since owning the team or whatever he's been doing with the team he hasn't had much luck on his side, wrong place and all bad timing.

The Kelly brothers I think are the biggest reasons for me coming back to watch more and more, they are both fairly level headed and yes young which is what it's all about.

At this stage nothing on HRT or Toll HSV's web site.

Will see what I can find.

Won't happen. HRT and HSVDT will both be on the starting grid come the Clipsal 500.

There is a release on the main V8 Supercar website, saying that subject to receiving the appropriate paperwork confirming what they have been told is the case, then both teams are fine to race. I doubt that Holden will have any difficulty in providing this paperwork.

Yep heard this today, quite dissapointing.

The Touring Car Entrants Group, which licences V8 Supercar race teams, cancelled the licences of both teams over an ownership issue.

At the centre of the ban is the position of the powerful Holden personality Tom Walkinshaw.

Under TEGA rules, no two V8 teams are allowed to be owned by the same person.

Officially, HRT is owned by Mark Skaife while the Toll team is owned by the Kellys' father, John Kelly. However, the position of Walkinshaw clouds the ownership issue.

This may also mean that their positions in last years championship will be disqualified and therefore Craig Lowndes becoming the effective championship winner.
