Touring Cars

[Nick]

Anyone watching the touring car ?

Just saw Some homo Clip ivan muller's (VXR) rear corner which sent him sideways

in true Vauxhall Style he just drifted the whole corner sideways and regained control and came out of straight. Classic grade A touring car action.

Yeh I watched it, totally broadside, infact more sideways than I have got my Sierra for a while lol

mullers a ice racer aswell so he's used to getting the car side ways, hes a great driver, touring cars are getting back to what they used to be but, its still not there, bring back the 2 litre cavs, and RS500 cosworths

apparently, they describe this alfa as a "drag car that goes round bends"

[Fester]

Hell yeah the glory days for the BTCC was early 90's for me!

When they did the rule shakeups why oh why did they go down the stupid wings/ballast route? They should have just gone back to the 'simple', minimal interferance style of the earlier cars, produced far better racing!

i love touring car racing but admit it has gone down hill, for me the hay do was the vauxhall/audi/renault battles
my brother-in-law works for pi research who supply the teams with data logging equipment so when i go to the races i get an aaa pass for free :D
plus jason plato is an arrogant bastid who i don't like :lol:

[ANDYRACER]

Wow that cavs low. And that pug 206 his harsh wouldnt like to be in that car when it crashed. And i remember the good old days of touring cars before mgrover came into it. Its really gone down hill in the last 4-5 years.

I'm really starting to enjoy touring cars. Think its brill.
I love the banter between muller and plato.
Rallying still number 1 for me though

[Stuart]

Aussie V8 supercar racing. now thats like BTCC was in the early 90's. fast action packed and atleat 5 people contesting the chamionship etc. plus in the wet its a whole new sport lmao

RWD is where its at for entertaining motorsport
www.v8supercars.com
(i think thats the link)

[Dar]

I like it all! :D I can sit and watch almost any motorsport all day! Except the Super GT series. The cars are good but the coverage is boring. I've tryed watching it a few times.

I watched some DTM races over the weekend as well. That was good. Looked just like a game of Race Driver 2 :D
