BTCC 2009: News, Rumours and stories..

hmmmm..... not Tempus, cars slow. Motorbase? possible unless they keep Kane aswell.
My bet is racing with Shedden

Pinkney will be with Dynamics and hopefully Kane will race the 3rd Motorbase car if they have the funds. Or he might be at Team Aon as they are lookin to put 2 more Focus's on the grid.

That's some pretty mainstream sponsorship they've got there, well done on getting that deal!

Looks like Motorbase could be a breath of fresh air this season...






... sorry, just wanted to be the first to make that pun!

Smart looking car, better then last years.

Airwaves eh?
We gonna see Leon Haslam in the car next?

Thats a smart looking thing. VERY FRESH!
Sorry for the awful joke about the chewing gum! lol

hmmmm good for them getting a big sponsor...but it looks a wee bit out of place seeing as the logo doesn't really match much of the car

Should have made the red and black stripes green and black or something

DYNAMICS NEW PAINT JOB!!!

oooo very pretty

I guess that means Halfords is gone then

1) I LOVE the new livery! Gonna start that bad boy tonight!

2) jenson, gary, we need a new team name...

lol, ah you can keep the halford spirit alive ck...at least until the end of our current season anyway

What's the bets that Pinkney's car will have pink flames

Team Dynamics for season 4 then ck?

Well, it's GRP Motorsport that we run under in the TCC, so we will run as that till the end of the season. I assume you mean season 3 though, right?

May not run a Honda next season, still deciding... although testing is an eye opener. Myself and Richy59 have built a number of cars under the new rules, the most popular ones, and selected a track as our testing location. the Honda Civic Type R 2007, which ain't been that great under the old rules, is closer to the big boys under the new regs. I posted my quickest and second quickest laps today around the track, one was in a Leon, the other a Civic Type R, and both were within two tenths of a second of each other.

Anyway, on topic. That new car is just brilliant looking, I love the aggression in the paintjob, the Civic now looks less like a wheeled tangerine. I love it!

Also found this on btcc.net. It's pics from testing at Oulton yesterday that a guy has posted to his facebook. I like the way the new Vectra livery harks back to the old Astra Coupe one, and the way the John Guest sponsorship has been incorporated to Andrew Jordan's car.

interesting exaust pipe

Looks like Team RAC have ever-so-slightly changed their livery too, more like the one that was on the MGZS from 2006.

oh wait, thats a test livery..

good old Matt! This guy used to race on forza

Yeah, that's not the finished livery, the last link has them. That exhaust attachment is a silencer to bring the noise levels of the car down to acceptable track levels.

I'm loving Jordans John Guest VXR...get to work ck, I want one
