[edit] 2007 series

Thought Hangar had used a Ralt RT4 Formula Atlantic car to win the Oz Boss title. --Falcadore (talk) 03:07, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

He raced both a Reynard and a Ralt. The lastest edit has fixed that. xbgs351 6/3/08 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.243.254.204 (talk) 04:50, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] GRM Formula Holden

Which car was designed by Garry Rogers Motorsport, and what were the circumstances? That sentence now reads badly but before I ammend I'd like to know the details. --Falcadore (talk) 07:07, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

There was one for sale on my105, but it has just sold. I gather that GRM manufactured them using a March design. xbgs351 6 March 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.243.254.204 (talk) 04:52, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
That sounds unliekly to me. GRM did not acquire the manufacturing ability to support their touring cars until 1999, yet they had the ability to manufacture open wheelers ten years earlier? If you are referring to the venerable March 87B chassis that raced sporadically in F-Holden, there was a March 87B F3000 chassis imported in 1988 which was used to prove the viability of the concept of bolting the Buick V6 engine to a F3000 chassis. The car raced briefly with Chris Hocking originally before being used by Chas Talbot for several seasons, but how GRM got involved, (considering back in 1989 GRM did not really exist and did not really start becoming a professional race team until about 1993) is a little baffling. --Falcadore (talk) 08:43, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
How about rebuilt Marches then? http://forums.autosport.com/showthread.php?s=3afe09826a16fb2c8b0b3b4ce3302b35&threadid=66554 123.243.254.204 (talk) 01:13, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
Certainly wasn't by GRM though was it? I'm removing the reference. --Falcadore (talk) 03:06, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
