Drivers you did not mention who have been confirmed as driving - who with TBC:

Scott Pruett
Alex Tagliani
Mark Blundell
Christian Fittipaldi

Some guys I reckon would be good to have as co-drivers (I don't know about date clashes with these guys:)

Max Wilson
Alain Menu
Andy Priaulx
Marcos Ambrose (date clash this year)
Alan Simonsen
Jason Plato

Some other guys who have some experiance (once again not sure about date clashes)

James Thompson
Fabrizio Giovanardi
Marc Hynes
Boris Said
Matt Neal

Finally some blokes who have either expressed interest in coming, or have had teams express interest of having them come.

Jenson Button (date Clash)
Lewis Hamilton (date clash)

Plus then there is the guys you've already mentioned.

Simonsen will be ruled out of the Supercarnivale as he isnt an "international". Thats what it says in V8X

Boris Said could be a strong possibility as he is doing a limited schedule in Nascar as is Robby Gordon.

Maybe we could see a few more US Circuit racing stars like Ron Fellows and Max Papis

Some others I forgot to mention;

Troy Bayliss
Ben Collins
Gabriele Tarquini
Tom Kristensen
Chad Reed

Something else I was wondering about...

Can blokes from the Kiwi V8 Series join in?

E.G. Angus Fogg and those blokes...

Kayne Scott and Chris Pither would probably be ruled out, as that's like classifying Murph as an international.

They must not be allowed, surely?

i reckon that they would be the first people would go to but they havent. i only care about people who have been invited or people who have been confirmed at this point.

Former Ferrari F1 driver, Gianni Morbidelli, has signed to drive with Dean Fiore. May also be known from the Euro Superstars series, in which he is a multiple champion. Sounds like a good pickup.

You can add Gianni Morbidelli to that list as he has been confirmed.

What will probably end up happening is half the drivers we think are confirmed won't come because everything is coming from all different sources.

Chad Reed would be good to have at Surfers Paradise but that might all depend on his AMA commitments.

There are quite a few good steerers over in the US and A/ North America region. Maybe we could see a few drivers like Michael Jourdain Jr., Ron Fellows, etc.

Im suprised that a few international drivers that have popped up on the enduros arent on that list.
