Where did Panzer end up, or is he still in Rob Austins shop?
Never knew there were 3 Shermans! Had assumed he was the same car but fixed up and updated. |

I think mainly because the BTCC was not getting the numbers in the mid 80s and maybe Rover and BMW pulling out turned manufacturers away |

Really surprised to see Jordan and Motorbase parting company. Hope he and his Pirtek pounds find a new home - he's a good driver.

I don't want to sound an old cynic but it doesn't make particularly make AJ look that good moving to another team for the 2nd year running, no continuity and beaten by Jackson in the Championship. Despite the positive spin it does have a flavour of ball taking home? |

Perhaps Motorbase has a new sponsor (or manufacturer) which requires branding across two cars. This won't fit with the Pirtek ideal...
If Alfa Romeo, for example, wants to come back one would expect they'd want their cars to be in some sort of brand colours to relaunch their BTCC campaign in style., |

Well i was kind of thinking that certain driver and his boss could assist putting some kind of deal for BKR to replace the Passats and i would think they may have had other options to the Subaru last year that would still be interested with AJ maybe providing a sponsor

That's assuming that they even have an interest in doing it. Hearing that a driver last seen on the grid in 2014 may be in talks to drive a car from a marque that wasn't represented in 2016. No clue whether this is Alfa Romeo, or anyone else, but the driver has Motorbase history. |

Is Jordan going for Dave Newsham's record of having driven for the most BTCC teams?

Newsham raced for six times in five so there's some way to go
