WRC - Ireland, Norway and Portugal all in for 2007. Cyprus, Turkey and Australia missing from the WRC calendar. Can Chris Atkinson stay in the series without Subaru Australia support next year?

ARC - Rally of Canberra looking shaky for next year; ACT Tourism Minister Andrew Barr doesn't think it attracts enough tourism to justify support. Meanwhile, Octagon is complaining the Safari Rally isn't garnering enough local support.

Marcos Ambrose - Ambrose scores a 3rd place in Kansas, the best result for a rookie driver so far this year. Thanks to TruckSeries.com for the audio grab.

V8 Supercars - Craig Lowndes and 888 Racing score their second round win of the year in Darwin. The Toll-HSV team put in another strong performance. And Jason Bright decides to leave FPR at the end of the season to drive for his own team, Britek.
