When the BRSCC 'announced plans for a new championship to cater for “the competitor who wants to race the ordinary family car, to do so throughout an entire season against evenly matched opposition.”' I would imagine that most people thought Saloon Cars, and British Saloon Car Championship sounded perfectly fine.

Did the change to BTCC in 1987 come with any objection from enthusiasts I wonder?
And were they objecting to the name change, or the types of vehicle used?

Although if this thread is specifically for Touring Car Drivers - does that mean it is a 1987-onwards focus?
