That's really good news, Ritter is a great driver and I'm sure he will do quite well given his track record.

I don't know about money but someone (read Geoff P) has realised how good Ritter is and wants him to drive more before he gets the pips and someone on the darkside grabs him.

More like DJR's quid pro quo for having Russell Ingall in their driver line-up next year!
