Sheep Stations should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Ahh, yes you can when you engage AGT in the event prematurely as the promoter did. Only way he'll get sufficient numbers on the grid.

Huglin has NZ company connections, problem solved with entering the 2010 Lamborghini. He hates AGT after they blanked his car anyway.

The qualifying thing is a worry. Don't expect a Simonsen/Baird style shoot-out in qualifying as showing your cards will result in some back-of-a-napkin style parity being placed on the car for the race. We will see race laps several seconds faster than any qualifying.

And I can't see two pro drivers together in any case. With the budget to run a championship GT car for this event being $100-150k, pro drivers don't write cheques so owners will be seeking capable drivers with funds.
