The BTCC starts again tomorrow at Brands Hatch.

There is a new Honda Racing portal featuring the Live Race Dashboard, looks good!

I'll be there!!!! Can't wait for the season to start!! anyone else going?

I've got a 180 mile drive and the S2000 is not out of hibernation from the winter yet (maybe today though!), so I'll probably be driving my Accord down there.

i wonder if Giovanardi is back this season - 888 droped out of the teams main sponsorship, so they couldnt race.
edit: i must be going mad. 888 are back, but no mention of Giovanardi. according to wiki he never drive with 888 has he retired?

I'm down here with the clios, we didn't have the best opening, 3 rear beams bent in the first race, bad times.

Neal looked quick all day aswell as chilton, chilton was 2nd but got disqualified in 1st session for low ride height and then came 7th.

Www.tsltiming.com has all live timing for anyone wanting to see.

Weather looks good tomorrow so hope people going have a good time!

Interesting first race, now for more of the same although things may be a little different with some cars carrying weight.
