I am not a particular fan of the BTCC. As an occasional CART Oval Observer, I witnessed ASCAR at Rockingham last year and was not impressed. I am 55 years old and have been involved in motorsport since my teens; I have seen many championships come and go. I think ASCAR will continue to struggle, and to succeed it will have to move outside the strict confines of the ovals, ie it needs to spread its fan base around the country by running races at Brands short circuit, Mallory Park and possibly Castle Combe. If it does that it might give the BTCC a run for its money and draw people from across the country to Rockingham.
