    Hmm... we could field a team for all the major endurance races!

    All we need is a full ride from Ultimatecarpage.com.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Why wouldnt they be worth all that much??? Arent they ex 00 cars? I dont recall WPS ever building a chassis. And as for a lack of results, I dont ever recall them ever having decent drivers either, so, maybe, like Paul Morris Motorsport cars, all they need is a decent driver to have gotten them up the grid.

    IIRC they had one in-house chassis before Gore sold up shop, but all their other chassis were hand-me-down from either 00 or FPR IIRC.

    You could certainly find much faster ex V8 supercars. Theyre probably hoping to sell to a development series team or somebody else running them in one of the other categories that allow them. For $220K though, considering its record and that there'll be a fair few BF's sold off for next year, theres probably a few better deals out there.

    I want that starion.....and that girl with the staff t-shirts number!

    Bargs and max could preform well (both have had podiums and bargs has a bathurst win) but at a guess id say the cars they had where ordinary and it would be a great effort to steer them to a top 10 in the konicas....
