Hopefully we see the likes of Reiter and a few Mercedes (Black Falcon?) teams down here too.
Is it Marc VDS or VDS Racing Adventures (or are they one in the same?)

I know Marc van der Stretton is Count Rudi's grandson(?), but Marc VDS originally started out as "Belgian Racing" running the Gillet Vertigo in FIA GT's in the mid 90s.... is VDS Racing Adventures a decendant of the famous VDS Racing that Rudi ran? Getting pedantic i know...

Ofcourse VDS Racing does have history in Australia, taking Warwick Brown to the 1977 and 1978 Rothmans International F5000 Series victories
