ATCC 2011??

With the V8SC becoming the iV8SC, and hence having to drop any national links, is the ATCC title being contested this year? If so, by whom?

How cool would it be if the Production car series got back the ATCC title, hence dropping the manufacturers championship??? ... but cant see it happening...

In 2003 Ross Palmer applied to CAMS for the Performance Car Championship to be run for the ATCC, didn't V8Supercars complain and CAMS kept it applied there?


Even if the ATCC title reverts to something else, the "IV8C" will still keep trying to trade off the ATCC history.....amongst other things their "heritage" round will be made redundant on the spot

The production cars are now the only things that even remotely resemble a Touring car. In 2003, I can see V8SC blocking the Palmer application, now they are "international" that situ might change...

Did he ever?

I only saw this scenario mentioned in Bill Woods book "Legends of Speed" ..... there wasn't much correct in that book, what makes us think that information is correct?


I don't think the term "Australian Touring Car Championship" can be owned, given that there was nothing stopping the AASA awarding their own "Australian Touring Car Championship" in 2008 for one of their series

I thought Bob Jane believed he did and that was why he kept 'trying' to take CAMS and V8SCA to court all the time.

They also ran the ATCC - Australian Touring Car Challenge made up of a handicap system between Group A, Super Tourers and 5 litre v8's.
