In all honesty, I believe this is just another way of stirring up controversy to bring in spectators. The ever so soon Joon Maeng press release on his website hasnt happened yet and if you look at it from the sponsors pov it doesnt make sense to drop midway through the season, especially with Chelsea. Unless there was some big confrontation between the two things just dont add up. And seeing how comfortable and how much r&d Chelsea has put into the m3 over the years to perfect it and then to just throw it all away for a completely new platform is just ridculous.
I can understand him maybe bringing a Miata into play because it was only just a few years ago when he was tearing up the fairgrounds in his little red Miata. The only way will know for sure what is going down is going to be around the end of next week. So all in all i'd say Chelsea has the remainder of this week to finish up whatever he is doing before packing up and making his way over to Monroe, WA.
