I'm not a regular in this forum, but this is where the touringcar experts are, so here goes:

I'm looking into the issue of cost containment in racing (yes I know - not the first, won't be the last), and looking for some input on what a cost-efficient, yet fun to watch, production-based racing series - purposely avoiding the GT/touringcar distinction - should look like. In my personal opinion, neither WTCC nor BTCC or DTM fulfill these criteria - they are either too expensive for anything but high-brow factory racing, or dull to watch, or both.

So if you could build a series from scratch, what should it be - very close to stock prod., spec silhouette, or what? I'd be grateful for any ideas you would like to shere with me.
