When it talks about being aimed at club racers - do they mean as a replacement for current club racing, or as a route from club racing to other categories? |

Enough of this OT conversation about a different series, lets get back to what we all want...
I'll post updates to my table on Tuesdays and Fridays, so here is the latest. Jordan moved up to a possible, based on having twitter exchanges with WSR. Trade Price entry now includes the make/model, based on article(s) detailing 2yr contract. Oliphant notes changed to reflect formal press release.

What did the first iteration of the Clios have? Was it 220bhp? What power did the old 90s Fiestas have? It can't have been more than 120bhp? |

Like I said earlier though not really if they're aiming for the higher end of the club market. If they're aiming for the "rich kid out of karts" market then fine but no-one driving a 250bhp per tonne or more car is going to spend more money on one of those to go racing IMO. Like so many things these days motorsport related they seem to have come out with a product without defining the intended market for that product. Not sure what relevance the power figures from cars two decades ago is?

Apparently there's NGTC car that ran in 2019 being tested this weekend by someone who has never been on the grid previously. Likewise the crew running it. Some trackday attendees in the morning should get a nice surprise.

So unless you believe differently, someone has bought some old kit as a track day car or for TCT, so not a 2020 rumor in any way.

Only 4 new builds confirmed so far I think doesn't seem abnormal? |

This is based on the season in which each chassis first appeared. In some cases the built was started earlier but not completed until some time later. 2020 has only the 4 cars (2x Infinti, 2x Hyundai) announced so far. There will be more to add. |

Going to hazard a guess at the team in question being Reflex Racing GB, they had the old Audi A4 out in Britcar a few years back as well as having the odd touring car here and there. It’s just a guess mind.

wouldn't be a clever move from Dick to put Turks in a different car ? this way he can sell another 3 series to the Turkington family if he gets another title instead of just 1

BMR Racing have had the latest compulsory strike-off action discontinued, but still no sign of the 2018 accounts which are nearly 3 months overdue.
You have to wonder if BMR will even exist by the start of the season. |

Warren and Robert Scott are the only 2 directors of the company and it is listed as still being at Buntingford so I doubt if the Moffats have bought anything tangible, just the TBL's.
