Skaife to announce retirement Wednesday.
T and R Kelly to set up their own team with Red Bull money next year after Rick has a big falling out iwth Walkingshaw.

Its funny that Todd and Rick Kelly are going to set up their own team when Rick is already in his own team.
Not having a go at you Fitz and probably the wrong forum to continue discussion.
Currently HSVDT consists of the HSV Sponsored car for Rick Kelly and the Autobahn Sponsored car for Paul Dumbrell supposedly owned by Rick's parents with engineering support from Walkinshaw. If there has been a big falling out with Uncle Tom why do they need to go off and set up their own team, surely they just tell Tom to piss off and go it alone.
OR as it is fairly common knowledge amongst most within the V8 fraternity (well the non-Walkinshaw side) the Kelly's only ever owned a peice of paper (I wonder if Skaife got his own peice of paper or is it just a photocopy) which is now worth nothing.
I think the wash up of this and the Skaife sacking retirement will be interesting and the explanation of ownership even more intriguing.
I look forward to the Mark Skaife book titled Mark Noes Everything coming out in the near future.
if he set up his own team he will still be using walkinshaw engine like every other holden

Kelly Racing
Rick Kelly - Red Bull Racing
Todd Kelly - Jack Daniels Racing
Some cross promotion for the cars also
Not sure what is going to happen to Perkins with his Jack Daniels sponsorship, but with Price out of the car maybe it will go to a single car for Jack but Price does bring money, so if he has enough he maybe go around again.
HRT - Garth Tander, Will Davison (I still hope not) & Paul Dumbrell
Marcus Marshall to start his own team with the PWR License

Surely Todd could get some Vodka sponsorship instead of JD. The Red Bull and Vodka team would work marketing wonders
