Just wondering but what do ye guys think of the new look BTCC.

From what i have seen its not great.

Ford are after pulling out and the field is basically dominated by Vectra's and a few Peugeot's. Kinda boring really.

Although the cars look great. Especially the 406's.

One of the main differences is that the rear wing are regulated and made by the BTCC authorities. Supposed to cut costs.

Anyone going to Thruxton ?

I thought SuperTouring reguations are great. If they arent careful the Formula Renaults are going to be the headlining event. However BMP may be taking the smart route by trying to make the series more marketable

Ross: Are you thinking of going to any race ?

We're thinking of going up to Dublin for the race at Mondello but its only talk yet.
