NSC Gossip

[Super Tourer]

Did my eyes deceive me or was Dan Eaves missing from the last round of the NSC ?

Plus I seem to remember the Powertour entry was around 33 cars. At the last round there were 18 cars and with only 5 Class B cars racing in the BTCC B Class - there seems to be 10 cars missing somewhere.

Any theories on the above ?

It would seem that the numbers don't add up!! I think it must have been pre season hype - and it was announced at a time when the BTCC stated they would have at least twenty cars.... yeah right!!!

I reckon 33 people had mentioned that they had thought about doing it, and then in the real world, the actual entries are always somewhat less..

Dan Eaves was missing because of a testing shunt... but will be back next round.

At Thruxton there was only 18 cars - when did thet get 33 for an entry?

I do know that there are meant to be a couple of new entries over the next two rounds, but I'll be interested to see the numbers by mid season...

Do any more NSC races clash with the BTCC??

Sorry Dan, I meant the original entries released by the BRDC prior to the season starting - not the specific Thruxton entry !

I saw the bit about Dan Eaves in MN.
