So what has actually gone on at Tempus? And do Bamboo now take control of the second Lacetti too?

Sheds some light on why the Lacetti was out testing last week but was not going to be ready to take part in the WTCC at Brands!

What second Lacetti?

What second Lacetti?

I never thought they had a 2nd Lacetti to begin with, if they did, they probably would'nt ave bothered racing against time to reshell the Croft car

There were two Lacettis. I have read since my earlier post that it was the "spare" one that was out testing last week

Not this again?

Tempus never had their 'second' Lacetti. The spare car you speak off was the car they were going to have but RML are running Nash in it.

And if they had a second car, why would they be carrying on with the car that was so extensively damaged at Croft?

Then how did they ever hope to be running a 2 car team as origionally planned?

They only ever hoped to run a 2 car team, but never had the funds (or need) to purchase the second one from RML. Subsequently however, events at RML mean that there isn't an option for a second Lacetti as Nash is driving it. However I believe Harry has his 2006 Lacettis still tho?

Correct. RML are running Nash in it!

Apparently the difference between a 08/09 Lacetti and the 06 cars are vast and can not be applied.
