I think 888 don’t know what they are doing, they seem to have completely gone downhill, it will be interesting to see what they do now

That's the thought actually! Reasonable in my opinion and would be great to see! But is it likely? I would risk saying no.

Interesting footnote, Mowles other racing team he was a Director of (Optimum Motorsport), has been voluntarily liquidated, might be a coincidence or Mowle might be joining up with another team who might well be able to run the MG’s. Obviously there might be a lot more going on behind the scenes with this. It should be remembered that the out of the 4 Levorg’s BMR run, 2 belong to Subaru UK & 2 to a leasing company, none belong to BMR, so we may not see all four back or at least being run by BMR! Clear as mud.................still plenty to shake out here I think. |

My money is on Norlin retaining Chris & Dave & the Chevys. On the HARD driver; not sure at all. Possibility of Mike Epps returning - his Twitter feed references preparing a sponsorship presentation today. Maybe that is a pitch for sponsorship for some other ride though! |

It’s gonna be an interesting few days, I see no reason for them to change drivers, but we’ll see

Cant remember anything regarding a car chance but it's been quiet enough to assume they are sticking with the Cruze - may be old but I didn't get that impression from last year (now 2017!) and it seemed to be pretty competitve. I belive BTCN are a smaller team so I would assume they wouldn't have the budget for two new cars. Again, not sure with HARD - personally I'll think they'll bring in someone new to the series similar to Thompson. I don't think there's been enough #hashtags to suggest it's someone proven in the series! No idea where, but that would mean Epps would move to a 'higher' team - PMR is the only one I can think of that has a seat open. Personally, I hope the MGs will be gone - too old and battered now as evidenced last year and I don't think any current team would be gaining by running them. Best case is that 888 brings in a new manufacturer deal or something like they originally did with MG but that's looking less and less likely. More realistically, if they were to run 2 of the Levorgs then that would account for HARDs extra space on the grid. With perhaps 3 drivers this week announced and then ASI a week later, hopefully we should start getting some answers! |

Yes, the 60th anniversary logo is looking great. Seems a good time to attend a race meeting again. Maybe I'll come

Official forum hasn't been updated to reflect the new logo/colours, but then I'm not surprised, it's been a near ghost-town for ages. |

The fact that the 'newest member' has been Kelly rumary for well over a year now confirms that no one else has managed to register. |

To be fair, it's mostly tin foil hat brigade on there, or kids arguing about drivers, cars and hurling personal insults Basically all the worst bits of secondary school |
