Yes, but he is also following over 6,000 other people.

So is Gio.

But I see what you mean, it's recent along with Dunlop Tyres UK too.

It would be an uphill struggle for Chiltern to win in the new car. But he'd be competitive.

It would be good to see Sonic back, he seems to have matured since his early days when he tended to overhype himself. The Arena Ford move seems to have been the best thing that happened to him. Of course maybe that's what PMR have in mind with their new car

Just thinking, in the past Jackson used to say 'kick up a gear' a lot in interviews. Wonder what he'll say now?

Hopefully not I've had my porridge this morning!


What an ace deal though for motorbase and shredded wheat. Look how much we're talking about them.

Just seen the photos of the Focus on BTCC.net. Anyone else feel it looks more like a photoshop mock up rather than actual livery?

I don't get the fuss about the livery to be honest. Its not very special or exciting, but its not a hackjob either and it represents the sponsor properly. What would you expect differently?

That's the car, not photoshopping. Livery could easily change between now and media day though!

From what I understood of the launch article, there's a more 'complete' livery to be shown at ASI along with other drivers etc.

Right now the only thing it needs is for the red accents to be tied in a little better (the way they stop abruptly under the headlights looks a little unfinished as is)

TBH I don't know that's there's much more they can do to add much depth to the design, maybe a vinyl of the heart shaped bowl from the front of the cereal box incorporated somehow but don't go expecting too much I'd say!

Do we know if the deal was dependant on them having 3 cars i.e. For a play on "You can't beat 3 shredded wheat?" I'm assuming so or AJ could have continued in the 3rd Pirtek livery - or was it a convenient excuse for him to go RWD?
