BMW 2 Series not happening.
One of the BTCC journalists was at Croft for the Super Tourers before heading to Knockhill.
I asked a load of questions that gave back a "I know the answer, but can't share it," type of reply, but on the FWD 2Series he said he'd directly asked WSR about it and they said no, and he'd asked a couple of other people around the paddock in the no - they all said it had been shelved.
Couldn't or wouldn't answer that they weren't going ahead with the 2 series because Dick Bennetts is trying to sell up before retiring back to NZ.
He did believe that the BTCC is just letting 'natural wastage' bet rid of RWD. And with Motorbase halting the RWD Audi project over the winter, and Sutton being dominant in a FWD, nobody is really going to throw loads of cash at a RWD now.
