[BTCC] Rounds 13, 14 & 15 - Croft

[touringlegend]

Honda's looked very quick with a top 3 in qualifying with Neal on pole and Jordan splitting him and team mate Shedden.

Wonder if it'll be 3 wins for Honda again?

[Cesco44]

Uhmm i don't think so. Shedden and Neal will carry the maximum ballast while Jordan will have the car more light of the two. I predict the first win of the year for Andrew but for the other race I would not be surprised if Plato or Wrathall won the second race.
However there will be three great races and the weather will be uncertain tomorrow.

plato's suffering electrical gremlins and looks to be missing race 1

[slummingangel]

anybody know what times race 2 and 3 are on at?

[Lancsbreaker]

Good work by the marshals in Griffin's accident.......why hadn't he pulled the kill switch?

[Icebaby]

After Croft its obvious how to make money, simply reproduce pattern parts for the front end of a Focus and Vectra as both teams seem hell bent on destroying theirs at every single race.

Paul O'Neill did a cracking job in a car that let hom down.

great racing again this weekend, was good to see Paul O'Neill back again though it was a shame the car let him down in the opening two races.

As a Plato fan i was gutted to see him not being able to start race 1 again, but scored a great win in race 3

Bit of a long break now, hopefully though someone can challenge those Honda's in the second half of the season....theyre really quick just now and the #77 is also getting in on the act

Toyota's Twitter described it as a 50p part. In his video diary on ITV Paul O'Neil called it a £1.50 bolt. With a mark-up like that it's no wonder drivers are struggling to find a budget.

i think you may have rumbled most teams business plans - buy parts cheap and charge the drivers a fortune

Really good close racing - as usual at Croft.

For goodness sake - please can someone sponser Rob Austin! The car was very quick this weekend.

It surprises me greatly how BTCC teams in general struggle to find sponsors it seems. You look at the sponsors of the Ginetta's or even the Clios and there are far bigger brands on some of those cars. Not sure why thats the case...?
