There was a series called Superstars about to start in 2000. It was not cars with V8's, it was supposed to be with three litre 6 cylinder engines. BMW and Volvo were intrerested, but when the ETCC was decided to be started up again Superstars just died...

That is not a car from the Superstars... They only build a BMW 5-series demo car.
The Peugeot is as you say from the series idea Andy Rouse had. |

From memory this was a Eurocar type thing which was supposed to running at Rockingham but ASCAR came along and that seemed a better idea. (brain might be fuzzy though) ;-)

i think v8 stars main problem is that it has absolutely no official backing from manufacturers, the cars are all silluoettes (sp?). The races i've seen on motors TV have been pretty good. It's just that the DTM is better and steals alot of the attention!
