Team Australia moving to NASCAR

UPDATE This rumor is upgraded to 'fact' today. AutoRacing1.com spoke to Team Australia co-owner Craig Gore who confirmed that Team Australia is moving into Nextel Cup in 2007 with Aussie Vineyards. We asked him if that means the end of their Champ Car program and he said confidently, "No we should be able to continue with that too."

08/27/06 According to AutoRacing1.com sources, Aussie Vineyards, the sponsor of Team Australia wants to move their sponsor to NASCAR and create a Team Australia concept over there. If true, it is unclear whether Team Australia will continue in Champ Car, and will probably depend on a replacement sponsor. We also hear driver Alex Tagliani is looking elsewhere for 2007.
