I was more interested in Wookies new Alfa Romeo BTCC than this.

Wife and I have tickets for donnigton and Rockingham already. Highlight last year was meeting Rob Austin

PH Wookie confirmed at AMD again in the Audi.
I stand corrected then I always though ph Wookie was Rob Austin. Either way I like the Alfa a lot.
From Memory, Wookie on here is Ollie Jackson

Seems misleading to me.

It's not really an RS, in the same way it was never an ST.

BTCC has become pretty much like a silhouette series in recent years;

Same Engines, gearboxes and subrames bolted on to different body shells.

Snore.
Kind of but this (and the ST last year) actually use the 2.0 GTDi engine, which (I think) is pretty unique - the rest are using a series engine as you say (which is actually derived from a Vauxhall Redtop XE I think)
