i just read about the Britcar V8 series next year on DSC and how they are expecting holdens, mustangs etc AND up to eight TVR Tuscans with sagaris bodyshells sounds brilliant even better is that they are coming to castle combe

congratulations and thank you to anyone that is doing this next year, hope it all goes well

Darren,there a thread on www.ten-tenths.com about the dunlop Great and british package,its under the national and club racing heading titled dunlop race package its worth the read as the James Bailey from dunlop has replyed a number of times to questions that have been asked.

I also agree its great to see you guy's back at combe after such a good showing in the combe gt this year

sorry only just saw the reply. i read it on dailysportscar.com although i'm sure its in press releases elsewhere aswell. good luck for next season and i'm looking forward to seeing some V8 sagari

would i be right in saying that these should actually be quicker than the tuscan due to better aero values?

2 sec's is a lot of time to find darren!

Is that just due to the bodywork change or is there also gonna be setup changes too?

hi there it is simple to make up to seconds the cars will be runing down force wider rears at 305,s + we all so believe 70kg lighter + a further 30 bhp as i have spent most of the summer running my cars against other gt cars to check how strong they are I do belive that darren is right

i've not seen the reg's for the championship so was just wondering how things are going to be kept fairly even and keep those all important costs down as it would be a shame for the championship to fail early on.

But by the sound of things it could be something like the old thundersaloon of years ago hopefully there will be plenty of entries
