I agree with you Rally Power. TMG is plan A for the car.

I had another look at the TMR website yesterday, it is still advertising the same jobs it was a month ago. If I was Tommi I would say "yes please TMG build me a car", he can then test it, drive it play with it and develop his team. Give himself the necessary time it takes to build a solid structure in time for 2017 and not worry about the car development at the moment. But I have the feeling he has a fairly large ego...

The other thing that puzzles me, in a normal business world company's have budgets. These budgets are based on forecast costs and typically are based on a business plan or business case. For TMG which is a subsidiary of Toyota, they would need to submit their budget for funding to Toyota. Which then means someone in Japan is supporting the development and ongoing commitment to the TMG car - as they are paying for it.

The more I look at this the more it feels like Tommi is a sideshow..
