Onslow-Cole & Howell confirmed
Tom Onslow Cole gets one of the best seats in the house for his debut BTCC season in RAC's new BMW and Howell gets a full season at last in Motorbase's SEAT Toledo. Stories on the btcc.net website.

Fantastic that Tom has a drive, the feeder championships have some great talents who deserve a chance. Gareth I have mixed feelings about, but he's shown some potential in the races he's done in the last 2 years.

Good to see Tom finally getting a drive in the BTCC, he's no slouch behind the wheel.

It'll be good to see how Onslow-Cole can get on in the BTCC, a young driver with lots of potential. With all due respect to Rob Collard I'm glad that WSR have moved on.
Gareth Howell too still is a young driver with so much potential that he hasn't had much of a chance to show over a season. |

Running a year old car privately seems to be about his level. WSR have employed guys like Andy Rouse, Anthony Reid and Paul Radisich in the past, and you really can't put Rob in the same list for quality.

Be interesting to see how Onslow-Cole does, think he'll have a good year.
Howell has showed over the last couple of years that he is a good driver and capable. I think this forthcoming season will be very important for him to show what he can do outside of the Team Dynamics structure. |

IMO I think Onslow-Cole will make many a mistake this year but I guess that maybe to be expected, but I personally think he does not have the right temprement for this drive.

Good to see that Gareth Howell has got a full-time seat, he's looked good every time he has raced in the BTCC over the last few seasons...arguably just as well as the second Team Dynamics driver...
