How do you rate Chevrolet's chances of winning a title in the WTCC?

I like the way you think, I'm sure you can get a job for one of the manufacturer teams in WTCC

So, that car is the new Cruze.

Yep, and I hope they stay I'd love to see a WTCC version of that car, its quite a nice ride if you ask me.

Grille is too HUGE.

[FIRE]

It's a nice looking car. Will there also be a hatchback version?

I hope Chevrolet will continue their WTCC involvement. Chevrolet is doing well on the European market (e.g. the Captiva is the best selling SUV in Holland) so that's no reason to quit WTCC. But you never know what the big bosses in US decide.

Who cares what it looks like, the important thing is how it goes. And how easy it converts into a racecar..

How about a new engine, instead of that ancient GSI unit from a Kadett?

Why fix what isn't broken?

At the moment, Chevrolet seem to lack a strong point. While the SEAT's have a turbo and the BMW's have good aero, the Alfa's had a strong engine, the Chevy just seems ok at everything. I think that if they're going to challenge, they need to redo the whole thing, and a new, better engine could give them an advantage over the others at certain places, and allow them to really fight.

With the new engine regs coming (was it for next year already?) with Petrol Turbo I'd be quite surprised if they stay with the ancient NA Petrol engine. Besides, will they still sell the old 2L NA on a car next year? Doubtful if this new car hits the streets.

I would be surprised, if the good folks at Ray Mallock isnt up to their eyes in this car already..

I am suprised they have not done better, the car looks strong and RML are a class act, it seems to me that they struggle getting good results through the whole weekend for all three drivers, they never seem to all have a good weekend in the same round, time for James Thompson I feel to be brought in.
