A long shot guys but I'm looking for lap times from '89 to compare the pace of the old RS500s to the new super tourers
Any help greatly appreciated

From the Autosport Directory 90 (so 89 times):
Brands Hatch - Gravett 1.32.97 100.67mph (GP) Donnington - Gravett 1.40.28 89.74mph (long) Rouse 1.14.20 94.94mph (Club) Oulton - Gravett 1.40.62 99.06mph Silverstone - Rouse 1.17.32 110.04mph (GP) - Gravett 1.13.54 93.64mph (National) Snetterton - Gravett 1.07.50 102.24mph Thruxton - Rouse 1.20.78 104.99mph Remember that most tracks have changed since then, so hard to compare times against races in latter half of 90's.

Thanks for that Supertouring, I understand that most tracks have changed, Silverstone being one.
Just looking for rough info to compare the current cars really. Thanks again. |

Donington BTCC 1989
RS500 - Andy Rouse 1.14.20 s Donington BTCC 2003 Astra - James Thompson 1m 14.610s I would have thought the newer car would be quicker to be honest with the advancements in tyres/brakes/aerodynamics...

The RS500 was rear wheel drive though... And most probably lighter too

i bet do to speeds and sero - as was said braking distances is probably half, and power transfer is probably better, as is grip. I rather am fond of the new BTCC, not like the mid 90's touring, that was, as they they say 'sweet t its.'
