Well that came out of nowhere. Be interesting to see who fills that seat.

I initially thought fabs but then there has been a lot of rumbling that Erebus aren’t happy with Reynolds and he wants out so maybe he will move to Kelly racing potentially with Penrite backing.

[Mr Ree]

Didnt DR sign a multi multi multi 21 year deal last year, though?

I havent heard anything about that relationship changing, but he certainly hasnt been as happy this year, so I guess anything is possible.

[FLI355]

He signed a 10 year deal. But any contract like that would have 1 zillion get out clauses for both parties. I’ve heard it quite a bit that the relationship between the two (Reynolds and the owners) has significantly soured this year. Apparently his mrs isn’t even allowed to visit the garage cause they deemed it a distraction.

[Mr Ree]

Interesting. I wonder what the catalyst was for the team making those changes, as she was always allowed around previously.

His dimeanour has been very unlike it was for the past few years before, so something has happened.

This could mean an entirely new lineup there if Anton goes to DJR, and DR leaves.

Many cards still to fall, it seems...

[Bob Vegana.]

W. Brown and B. Kostecki at Errorbus, if Reynolds leaves.

I see what you did there

[StupidFlanders]

On the latest Below the Bonnet AVL mentioned someone who is currently under contract could be moving so Reynolds is a possibility. He wouldn’t mention names.

[willsy01]

Rick Kelly has retired from full time driving.

[FLI355]

Barry Ryan said this morning he wants to finalize if both the current drivers will be there next year ASAP. That's a big sign both are going I reckon.
