Pelican (and Turner Motorsport) were purchased by the holding company that owns ECS last summer. So far the crappy ECS customer service doesn't seem to have affected Pelican.... yet.

Wayne was last seen hi-jacking the Tesla that was shot to Mars. Although he believed the 918 Spyder to be a far superior space ride, there was no time to prep one for arduous mission.

He has a little wordpress site at Dempsey Motorsports – Historic race cars sales and service but it doesn't look 100% completed yet.
Whatever he decides to do, I'm sure he'll be successful at it. I liked what he did with this place at any rate.

Many still do not realize as it was a fairly seamless transition. This took place in September 2017 so going on close to a year and a half.
