TCR - General topic

redshoes · 2 Jun 2017, 09:21 (Ref:3738075)

We already have a 2018 BTCC thread so why not a TCR one as well.

http://www.dailysportscar.com/2017/0...2018-ctsc.html
IMSA are introducing a TCR class within the Conti tires series, with a standalone TCE USA and TCR Canada series at some point in the future.

Wasn't there a TCR USA announced a few years ago, shortly after the TCR concept was originally launched? Although as I recall that ended up being TCR cars were eligible as a sub-class within USTCC, rather than a separate series. Did that ever get any entries?

No entries, as I remember.

In the USA there are already 2-3 cars in the PWC, in the TC class.

Also someone said something about TCR Mini, and LAP Motorsports are developing TCR spec 5-door car

TCR was meant to come to the US touring car championship in either 2014 or 2015, it didn't. Now PWC say they will have a TCR class as well as IMSA in 2018. I've only heard about 4 TCR cars racing in the US to date so I don't think both or either will have good grid sizes.

Also France are rumoured to get a TCR championship.

Looks like France will get a TCR series in 2018.

And maybe the UK if BTCC can't kick them out

They only started work two weeks ago. They will add the cage when they start testing the car.

I'd be so down for a TCR MINI.

People from Japanese Motorsport Association and also from Honda, Mazda and Toyota was at TCR round at Oschersleben and had meeting with Marcelo Lotti.

Rumors are about Toyota and Mazda building TCR car, as well beginning of TCR Japan

Racing Harz · 11 Jul 2017, 10:51 (Ref:3750355)

I have seen many japanese peopole in Oschersleben, so it could be true.
