The Superstars rules are everything TTA doesn't want, performance balanced to the max. And to be frank, I think those rules are pretty terrible aside from the PB issues. So far I'm not convinced by any set of regulations, but NGTC and S2000+ seem not as bad as the rest. We'll see about the DTM when I get to see them in the flesh. But this isn't about rules, not
really. It's about a bunch of people who've decided they've had enough and if they're already putting their asses on the line to bring the show they should get a bigger slice of the cake. STCC has been run quite poorly for several years now and needed an overhaul, but this isn't it. What it mainly needed was a good promotor, and more professional people running the show. The basis for a great series for everyone was already there, it was just being squandered.
As far as touring car regulations in general go I expect nothing will work out. Six, seven, maybe eight years from now, a bunch of failed or struggling championships with second hand cars noone wants to buy. If we're lucky maybe these years will teach people to come togeather and write a universal set of regulations instead of splitting the market ever and ever more.
