This is crazy! He was a fulltimer last year, he's on the pace at Bathurst, a former winner, what's the problem? Have I missed something here?

Did he burn bridges? I'm hardly a Bargs fan but surely this is a massive oversight, can someone shed some light?
I would have put Bargs one of the top 5 or so picks having had 13 seasons in the category full time. A season out of the category did him no harm in 2008 when he was comfortably quicker than Tony D'Alberto in the RNR car.

Not many memorable results in recent years and a fair few scrapes, but that comes with driving an underfunded car. He is certainly would have been a better bet than some of the underwhelming announcements by teams which consider themselves contenders. Unless he has priced himself out of the market?

He probably would be a good fit at WP, co-driving #66 and if Percat moves to this car, could reunite with Tander in 2013.
