Spoke to GP today and he's very upbeat about the 2012 season.
Some more stuff in the Paddock.
Grids of 30+ cars expected. Not just the MGV8s but the TVR GTs are about again.
From the other posts, its great to see some other cars being re-commissioned and coming back out.
My car was fresh to DTEC last year
DCs loverly nu B Tuscan (Fresh to DTEC)
Bills similarly loverly A Tuscan (Fresh to DTEC)
Perry's also loverly Chevy A Tuscan (Fresh to anywhere) to name a few.
Any others>>>

Jasons Tuscan will be nice to see but who's are the 3 speed6 Sags? I don't know of any. ... a few or all, its still out. The Sags as you know are TCCs with the GT bodies. Jason is being brave with the S6 as he has a business interest. Likewise CJ was also brave running the wilder, but on a budget the S6 just doesn't make sense...yet and since no more are being made I not sure it ever will. I don't see how its a suprise (from someone else thats done it) that the most cost effective way to race a TVR is to buy a purpose built race TVR. A

Be nice to see big grids, but we hear the series get talked up every year and the first grid struggles to make numbers and then it goes into decline.
May get along to watch a few of the races so would be nice to see 20+ cars and well supported classes.

snett 16 bhi 12 donnie 24 rock 17 op 20 av 18 Funny...seemed like more at the time! av 18 + 6MGs + newbies??? Mid 20s I guess. Doesn't matter how many really, so long as everyone has atleast 3 closely matched in each class? And thats only 16. Maybe 32 would be nice.

I would love to see big girds this year, but we have lost 5 people I know of though that was out last year, plus how many of the 6MGs are going to be out.
