Re: O MY GOD! THOMMO RETURNS!
Looks like a possible three car assault soon though if Shedders can find the budget.
Shame as he was up for two wins at Thruxton last year but for punctures. See what happens eh?

Money. Pinkney's probably payed a hell of a lot more than Shedden for that drive.
I'm thinking this arrangement has been in place for a while, given Shedden's late recall before media day. Thommo's probably not had the pennies in order for the drive in time, so Steve Neal has recalled Shedden, who is struggling for sponsorship following the loss of Clydesdale Bank backing, in order to make sure he has two cars on track for the season, one of which being driven by a front-runner (Shedden).
Thommo gets his funding together, goes back to Neal, and Shedden gets dropped. Really not amused. I hope Shedden will be back in the third car, but I think it's time to move on to another team for him - Plato and Shedden in the RML cars would be awesome.

Re: O MY GOD! THOMMO RETURNS!
Yeah, I wouldn't want to go back to a team who were quick enough to get rid of me just cause someone else has more money.
Re: O MY GOD! THOMMO RETURNS!
Its all money these days aint it. Onslow-cole aint got not sponsorship so he lost his seat at Vauxhall while Jordan is backed by Pirtek to run that car for him. I agree with Richy should of got rid of Pinkney cos he will never win a race.

Re: O MY GOD! THOMMO RETURNS!
There's probably still sponsorship to be had around. I doubt we've lost Shedders for long. I'd expect to see him back in a third Honda quite soon. (hopefully with the silver flames!)
It is a shame about Tom O-C. He did well for Triple Eight and has been dealt a poor hand this year. Can see him in the Tempus team or maybe alongside Plato if RML get serious.
Dont forget the mumblings about WSR's third Bee Em.....
