They have done that before, but it wasn't a roaring success.

Downhill start into a hairpin with no run off? The quick chicane might be a little crazy going downhill as well. Interesting idea but I don't really see why.

Used to get that paper every week but stopped a couple of years ago as I never had much time to read it. Might check it out again as I have too much time now! Howcome you're working there at the moment, and how's it going?

Looks like we may have the third Motorbase car out for Rockingham going by the rumors floating around.

Brands Hatch Indy & Knockhill would be like 8am on the M25 :p

Well, we can get optimistic but Team Aon are going to WTCC, as are STR. So there's 5 cars gone.

Are STR going to the WTCC though? I heard Tom Boardman had confirmed himself for the BTCC next year, along with STR. Aon had planned on doing double duty if they were going to the WTCC as well, so we may not be loosing any cars next year at all.

STR are staying put

Awesome. But Aon are still going.

When? At a lower level of competition or for BTCC? Don't think they've done it at least as far back as 1991, not sure it'd add much, presumably you'd lose at least one overtaking spot into the current 1st corner?

Years back there were plans for BTCC to run at Donington backwards.

Michael Caine or Jonathon Adam looks set to be named as the third Motorbase driver for the remainder of the season.

Michael Caine has been linked, wouldn't be a surprise

And he didn't bother driving in the Porsche races at Knockhill.

Probably be Adam now, won't it?
