Not saying I didn't like them, in fact I think they are an awesome car that can hold their own against any other car in the world give or take a few Million $$ cars.
I'm just saying V8 SC are committed to rear drive V8 vehicles. They are the fastest growing Motor Racing category in the world and are very well receive right around the world. I think they have a winning formula at the moment. Their drivers are clean cut young men, and family men who generally only hit the headlines for all the right reasons (although there was that incident in Texas last year), not for defecating in hotel hallways, drug taking, illegal betting, game fixing, bashing the christ out of their wives/girlfriends or the average punter on the street.
But for the main part they are a great advertisement for their sport, their teams and they manufactures they represent. Sponsors are falling over themselves to get on a panel or race suit.
I think there are enough rear drive vehicles produced in the world to maintain the formula for years to come. If rear drives did dry up they could just easily adopt the NASCAR formula and just convert the front drives into rear drives ie Toyota and Ford. Up until a few weeks ago I wasn't aware that Hyundai had a family size rear drive sedan which is to be sold here in Aus. In the states the car comes with a V8 as well so it wouldn't be a giant leap for them to enter the contest.
Just my opinion.
