Whats wrong with the ISC.
i wasn't a fan to begin with, but after i researched it a bit more it looked pretty exciting. Who knows, another championship falls by the wayside |

The 9 car race held at Doningtopn Park, was not the greatest race in the world. The British GT and FIA GT are far better series. I'm glad the ISC is dead. Stealth now looking at the Knockhill British GT race
David Lesile will also make a GT return at Knockhill, in a Marcos. |

How exactly does the Stealth qualify to be a GT car?? Is there not a certain number that have to be road going?? As roadgoing as the Dauer 962 in '94.

I believe the British GT regs are a bit more liberal regarding road going versions. Which is why TVR get to enter a Speed 12 and a Tuscan R neither of which are exactly production models (yet?)
As for Stealth, I've read elsewhere that the organisers only wanted to see a single road car presented at scrutineering, unfortunately the single roadcar built so far (the one which did all the magazine roadtests a few months back) was sold to a private collector in Austria. This car has been borrowed back briefly to present to the powers that be... Finally, seeing as this is actually a thread about the ISC, my view, is as others have said, there is nothing wrong with the concept, as long as they have the entries and the funding - which as we saw in 2001 they didn't have either of... |

I don't think that the ISC will be given a second chance. If it was, it would always be associated with the first unsuccessful year. The British GT championship is now stronger thanks to its demise.

The guy who ran it Dominic Chappell (he likes it pronounced sha - peell!!) is the biggest crook out there! he used to run in the Porsche series in the UK back in the early 90s/lates 80s and he is long remmebered as being the biggest crook in the paddock - and he had stiff competition in that series let me tell you! I worked for the organisers and we had to throw them out evetually cos they never paid anyone for anything...
