MOTV8 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Teh TUSC is already looking shaky for next year with many prominent teams jumping ship. ESM, Turner, and of course SRT are all recent drop outs. ESM is headed to FIAWEC and Turner will be joining teh Pirelli WC series along with Mercedes and who knows who else. Teh 'silly' season has oficially started and there are only so many chairs to sit in once teh music stops....

Shifty Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Sadly, I think GM would kill teh program rather than go overseas, so I think if want there to be a Corvette Racing Team, this is teh crap we'll have to put up with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
