I thought it was time for a thread, considering more information about these regulations is being released.

Outline of technical & sporting regulations

TC3 Asia announcement

TC3 Portugal announcement

Belgium considering TC3? (French)

With these regulations being kind of a hybrid of single make/S2000/NGTC, I think they are a good platform for national/regional series. Touring car racing is in such disarray globally, that something needed to be done, so the more countries that have the same regulations, the better. Just look at GT3. However, I find that it's far too soon and unnecessary for an international series to be formed, especially as the proposed format is virtually identical to the WTCC's.

What do we all think?

If STCC would adopt it, I would be so happy. Anything is better than the kit car shite we are stuck with now.

Looks like an interesting mix of circuits.

Think they'll be a bit too slow for the full F1 circuits but at least the coverage on those tracks will be decent.

That's good news and to be honest, unsurprising. They're a good team and I'd expect them to be one of the front runners.
