TuteZaek should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Not directly touring cars, but in another chapter of the CDA-ACTC war the ACTC won another battle and the (now former) Formula Nacional (Ex Formula Renault, Formula Renault 2.0, Formula 2.0, Formula Pirelli... most of the name changes were from the last few years) is leaving the CDA and TC2000 and from 2024 onwards will acompany the TC using the name Formula 2 Nacional.
The move was made possible by consent of every team involved in the series.

In retaliation, the ACA/CDA announced that they will not extend international licences for drivers (Mostly teenagers starting their carreers) that participate in the "new" formula, with a lot of drivers, including Vivian (From TC2000, a CDA series) criticising the CDA's move because "the only thing it does is hurting the drivers and makes sure that the series will not come back"

As of last year, the Formula Nacional had really few cars and its "formative task" was dubious at best because of the slim paddock, with most of the young drivers going to the Formula 3 Metropolitana (Another CDA series) as a first step to the national series.

So, as of now, in the national level, the CDA is left with the TC2000 and Top Race (and their respective support series minus the Formula Nacional) on the touring car scene, and the Argentine Rally Championship and the Argentine Rallycross championship (that is mostly dead, with only two races in the last two years).
The first two and the Rallycross are owned by Tango Motorsport, the Levy's bussines.
There is also the Sport Prototipo Argentino (former GT2000) a small prototype series that recently turned national level and is trying to get stronger.
