Budgets are a lot less - teams quoting around 70k a season vs a min of 250k (more like 350k for a good one) for a BTCC seat.
I don't understand why there hasn't been a better uptake - there are plenty of TCR cars in the UK and plenty of people wanting to race a touring car. Yet we aren't seeing people who missed out on a BTCC seat drop into TCR. You would think the likes of Bobby T, Paul Rivett, Senna Proctor, etc would give it a go - surely better than sitting a season out completely?
