M8CKN Posted April 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Best racing championship by far. Looking forward to seeing how the Subarus perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 What channel is it televised on these days? I can't even remember the last time I watched it but always used to find it the most entertaining motorsport by some distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Full afternoon's racing on ITV4, started already, which means today you have the choice of watching a live F1 race or some real motorsport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-bmw Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) SCARY moment for the marshall just!!!!!! Should the flag man beforehand not have had double waved yellows out to signify marshalls on track? Edited April 3, 2016 by E-bmw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuprabob Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) It's almost a full day, never mind afternoon, 10:15 to 6:15 on ITV4. 8 hours:-) Support races tend to be good as well. 36 cars in BTCC. That's going be fun at Knockhill Edited April 3, 2016 by Cuprabob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuprabob Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Great first race although I think somebody may have a quiet word with that marshal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon magnifique Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Great Ginetta Juniors race. Beggars belief they're all 17 and younger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burble Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Excellent news. I bloody love BTCC. I must get around to booking tickets. We went to Rockingham last year and got grid passes as my other half is friends with someone from Team BMR. I thoroughly enjoyed the day. Excellent racing and a bargain price too. This year I think we'll do Silverstone and Rockingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 What we really need is for our resident racing driver to negotiate a bit of sponsorship when he orders his new Cayenne GTS, ditch the kit car and get himself on the Porsche Carrera Cup grid in a GT3 Cup. If the maintenance is covered by sponsorship it should work out about the same financially. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Apropos of nobody on here whatsoever. Fraser Robertson, racing in Ginetta GT4. Known as Kylie in the paddock cos he keeps spinning around. Bwahahaha. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
