Btcc 2015

[btcclee]

Debate about RAR. Hyped up a big surprise and I personally have not seen a single image of them testing when a big pre-season programme was expected.

Now one angle is that they have the S3 of Holland but people seem to be of the understanding that that Audi is in a rather poor state or was.

So what could it be? Simple aero package re-working or something bigger. As in literally bigger. Estate maybe?

[Munter]

I like the guy. But he does expel a lot of hot air. So I'm going for. Not much change just drumming up "hype".

[DanielSan]

They'll still have 2 A4's, same drivers, Ron's car will possibly have a different livery. That's my guess anyway.

[MG CHRIS]

New aero and livery is my thinking. Cant see them having the s3 tbh.

So where are we at now then???

25 drivers confirmed and at least four cars that I can think of straight off without drivers, have I forgotten any??

Still unsure over whether there is a fifth Focus being built, or if one is off to AMD???

Personally, I don't think the third MG will run.....but who knows.....if Gio has a budget??

[DanielSan]

I believe both the Eurotech cars will be red by the media day. There is one other big change to those 2 Civic's for this year, but I don't know if it's been announced or not yet. But a rumour is that they have TOCA engines in them this year. *cough* apparently *cough*

Really?? crikey! Have to say, upon seeing the red one first time, thought some yellow wheels and Agip sponsorship would not look out of place on it!!
Be interesting to see how they run with the TOCA engine.....some love it some slate it!!

- Those Eurotech Accords look incredibly like Civics
- Missing 2 Infiniti entries
- Power Maxed Cruze #2 is the second UA licence, so no second Team HARD car
