Care to shed any light

Ah, you have me at a disadvantage as our copy of Autosport hasn't turned up yet, sodding Royal Mail.

We've made no real secret as to our plans for BTCC next season but the change of regs have thrown a spanner in it somewhat as uncertainty is not a good bed fellow for sponsors. If we can get a better idea on what is likely to happen we can commit but at the moment all we really know is that its either BMW or Vauxhalls, as thats all we tune for the road and racing is part and parcel of our road car business.

For the moment all we are 100% behind is the CSL Cup, Sportmaxx and BTCC are questions marks and maybe linked, but my gut feeling is we maintain our three car team in Sportmaxx with scope to expand with another two cars and a 1-3 car BTCC team depending on budget, drivers and exactly what engines can be put where driving which wheels!
