I really enjoyed the BTCC today. Gutting we couldn't go but great to see some exciting motorsport back on TV

[stevemcs]

Its between Sutton and Turkington this year

[The Wookie]

Thanks chaps!

Yeah things weren’t working for me up until the end of Race 1, I had a lot of understeer which I hate, I’d rather have it trying to kill me with snap oversteer.

We went for a pretty epic setup change before Race 2 which suited me massively more, although still needs a bit of polishing, hence why I might have looked a bit hesitant at times!

I think Cammish will be in the mix at other tracks so he'll be in with a good shout come the end of the year, plus whoever Lord Gow thinks is getting the most fan interest so sees fit to assist where possible...

You must be well chuffed with 5th. Good things to come this season

Probably a lot of Subaru underneath that Infiniti shell this year,

You realise all the suspension, brakes, etc, is the same on all the cars?

There no Subaru in the Infiniti, it's all new, although I think Ash said the gear lever was carried over from last year's Infiniti.

But there's no denying the Laser Tools Racing / BMR Engineering collaboration is certainly paying dividends.

Didn't Moffat buy BMR last year? Not so much of a collaboration as him just expanding the team/moving it down south.

Wookie, you need to get hold of a (proper) mini and book yourself a day at mallory. Once youve learned how to do a whole lap looking out of the driver side window instead of the screen you'll be cured of your understeer phobia (and its great fun to)

[agent006]

Would be interesting to see whether there are any boost adjustments coming to the Infinity. Just driving away from everyone like that in race 3, with 35kg on, won't have gone unnoticed. Even if that happens, I still think he's the one to beat this year.

Pretty good driving standards I thought .
Ash Sutton just took it on the chin as a racing incident when he got turned around . I do like him as a driver .
