So, the entry list is out... who do you reckon will do the business at Snetterton?

In GTO, I think the two Moslers will be battling it out for the victory again closely followed by a hungry pack of TVR's which should produce some exciting racing.

In the Cup class I can't see anyone beating the Porsches, although it will be interesting to see how the RML Lotus performs on its debut.

No, I can't say i'm a fan of the Moslers either. To me they just don't have the "personality" of cars like the Ultima, TVR's, Morgans or even the Clio...

Still if they are the fastest things out there you can blame people for racing them!

Ok, i'll commit to names - top three...

1 Short/Herridge - Mosler
2 Balfe/Derbyshire - Mosler
3 Johnson/Lynch - Eclipse Tuscan

..although the Ultima should be fast if the teething troubles have been sorted out.

And in cup:

1 Pearce/Griffin - Tech 9 Porsche
2 Staveley/Mallock - Tech 9 Porsche
3 Cunningham/Robinson - Morgan

To be honest it could be any of the Tuscans, but I went with the Eclipse because of the teams experience with the car and the great pace it showed in the first round.

Not too bad - just had some exam results which went better than expected... have to do some aero coursework myself. Didn't find anything out about wind tunnels in your research did you??!

Any reason why they pulled out? Were they just not ready on time?
