Fifteen different manufacturers, that would be brilliant. How many series in history could boast that?

If wanted to go proper nuts we could maybe add the 16th possibility of Jaguar, but that is very, very unlikely.

(I'm already starting to get excited about 2014 and 2013 isn't even finished yet! Who said NGTC wouldn't work!)

Ciceley looks like the Merc team.

Because Solution F(uck-all) has been such a success.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Some obvious ones. I remember reading some negative comments about the cost of building NGTC cars coming from the likes of Dynamics and others.

Could I also add a disclaimer at this point as we are starting to talk about 2014 that none of what I post may actually happen and therefore I cannot be held responsible for anyone's disappointment if we get 10 cars and they are all Honda Civics.

It's ok kart99...

1) I added a disclaimer at the bottom of my list
2) You're not Phil1993 and so your predictions are welcome thanks to their reliability

Alfa Fan predicting 30 cars for 2005 will never be lived down :p

Still all these potentials are making me dizzy....PLEASE HAPPEN!

If there's one series that deserves to be healthy atm, it's the BTCC! :wave:

Would have preferred a c class rather than an a class but still good to see another brand on the grid.

It also seems that Morgan's Avensis has been purchased by someone looking to run it in the BTCC next year.

It makes sense for them to run a Merc, but did they really have to choose the ugliest car in their lineup? The A-Class looks horrific!

Yeah the A-Class isn't the best looking car is it? C-Class would have been better. But great for Mercedes to be represented in the BTCC. I don't remember when Mercedes were last in BTCC, all I remember is Prodrive suggesting they would run a C-Class in 1993 (which obviously never happened).
