BTCC 2009 Discussion

Yeah I did, as my mates were having a "car club meet"...in a back garden...in the rain...with a BBQ...I sat and watched the BTCC and F1 and eat BBQ. Anti-social, maybe. Sensible, Yes.

bbq, cars, beer...seems pretty reasonable to me

Just missing the girls

A new entry at Rockingham?

Also, looks like I was wrong about Shedden being the possible third BMW at Motorbase, as anyone who watched the coverage will have seen Steven Kane is looking at returning for the final two rounds. That can only be good.

Thats one smart looking Civic.

Thats cos its Andy Blackmore designed

I gave him some praise on ten tenths

looks good

Ok mostly irrelevant question for everybody but im gonna ask it anyways...

Which BTCC car do you think is the best looking?

I think i have to say the team AON Ford Focus... i just love the way the lines flow in the front end of that car...

ok let me know

are you guys watching these on TV or on the comp

tv / computer

I noticed at Knockhill, the Team AON zipper fleece's are sexy.

Yes, but I reckon they'd get mockit very quickly. Especially given that they are worn by guys working with messy, dirty cars at messy, dirty, tracks.

Personally I would have given this to the Dynamics Civic if they'd kept Shedden's silver and black livery from the Rockingham media day - that was just terribly awesome looking. Instead the dayglo flashes have ruined them. Although Pinkneys is still cool.



But in the end my vote has to go with an old favourite of mine, the Honda Integra, looking rather striking in team sunshine.co.uk colours.

What is it just this season or the best looking ever??

i was thinking just this season

Ahh right well im going for the Team Rac Beemer or the VXR Vectra. Always loved the Vectra going to be sad when its no longer .

I don;t get why touring cars are getting smaller in Europe- now it looks like they are 2 doors instead of 4

longer cars are harder to pass with and make it more exciting

like, it should be the Ford Mondeo instead of a Focus

what would you say for all time then?

All time erm.. Works Nissan Primera 98/99, Works Honda Accord 99/00 and Works Ford Mondeo 99/00. Also I quite liked Matt Neal's Nissan Primera from 2000.

This season best looking car? Defo the RAC Beemers, imo they are the most realistic looking touring cars. Especially compared to the mish mash of stickers on the motorbase cars.

Of all time? Has to be the 97 Laguna or the 98 Accord

99/00 Honda Accord, mean looking car when viewed from the rear buper cam!
Was also a fan of the '98 Nescafe sponsored Lagunas and of course the '96 Audi A4 still is a classic.

Can any of our overseas members access this? I doubt it, but I would like to know.

Tbh most of the Supertourers from the late 90's were mean looking cars, I cant think of a one that was horrible. Maybe the big fat Honda Accord from 97/98 was be the only one.

The 98 Volvo was such a nice looking car. Very crisp, very simple.

888 Racing not using VXRs next season? Shocking...
