According to BBC Ceefax (Pg 366) Gavin Pyper and Colin Blair have signed for GA-Janspeed Racing this year. Pyper comes as no surprise-i think he deserved a BTCT drive after last year-but Colin Blair? I think he must be bringing in some sponsorship.

I don't think Colin Blair wasn't a good driver, it wad just the inexperience of Pro Motorsport as they had only competed at club level. BTW what has happened to them?

Mark Blair would have been the better choice in my opinion.

when you talk about gavin pyper you are talking about a good driver who can do the buisness.he will get even better as he gets older and hopefully he wont calm down with age.
to put it straight,in 3 words......great! |

Faraas is a very fast young lad from Norway. Apparently contesting a domestic Peugeot championship set up by Roger Moen.

The BTCP seats are certainly falling into place and with so many good drivers and teams on offer i think it's gonna be a great year for production cars; Barwell/Project MSport.GA-Janspeed/GR MSport/HTML/etc.
