Discussion
Notwithstanding all the Team Hard rumours (!), good news today with the Pre-'66 Classic Touring Cars supporting at Croft next year:

Plus a lot of things to be announced before Christmas I think.

So you're hinting that you know that either Morgan or Jelley isn't continuing with WSR.
It's common knowledge that Jelley is not continuing!https://www.autosport.com/btcc/news/hill-stays-put...

Tongue in cheek aside;
- zero drivers carry over
- you get what seems to be your dream (Which I think will be an underwhelming performance personally vs. the godlike status some attach to the chap
- 2+2 branding/livery split
Even with your "explanation", it's still incomprehensible.- zero drivers carry over

i think what he is saying, is that last years driver's are not continuing ( at least with this team/car) Rob Huff is one of the drivers, and they will be running 4 cars, but likely two sides of the garage or maybe two main sponsors/
It's a bit like a crossword puzzle, isn't it?
I've heard that the 2024 season launch is 16 April at Donington.
I'm trying to confirm that.

That's an interesting one Milkyway. He's been chasing the WSR seat (so I believe), but they want huge money.
And there's the problem with the BTCC. It's simply costing too much. The NGTC formula was brought in to address that. But it has now spiraled out of control, with the "hybrid" system a recent accomplice.
To TOCA: Maybe time for a re-think?

Personally I think the BTCC needs to limit the number of people on an event, 3 techs per car, 1 race engineer per team
One race engineer per driver, surely? It's meant to be a professional championship. One race engineer for two (or more) drivers is a very poor compromise.Dynion Araf Uchaf said:
Limit the tyres to 1 set of wets or dries per day.
So a tyre blowout or similar damage means you stop racing?Dynion Araf Uchaf said:
No engine rebuilds during the season (maybe allowed 1 spare) .
So engine damage means you stop racing? For the rest of the season? Damage in Race 1 of the first round at Donington means you can't race for the rest of the season?Dynion Araf Uchaf said:
Allow the drivers to use track’s side footage for their own media channels.
That was introduced last year.I'm glad you're not in charge of the championship!
