Watts was always caught up in accidents, be it his own or more typically other peoples. Brands 1995 always comes to mind.

I think you're referring to the possibility of some Renault Meganes appearing, right?


Yes in addition to a few others.

Also, HARD have launched a campaign where you can sponsor PON to get him in the car for Rockingham.

Come on quick. This is our chance to get a TBK logo on another race car (after the HRT in 2010) and perhaps even more importantly (for Codename) the chance to have the YAY-Tree adorning a BTCC car. How great would that be?

Remember when I said that pitstops may make a return in 2016? Well, they wont for the foreseeable future.

I don't remember you saying that kart, but anyway I'm glad pit stops are staying away.

Is there any other news about future developments in the series, like an endurance race or tourist trophy event?

None, that I have heard about. Gow seems pretty much fixed on the 3 races, 10 round series format. An endurance race is possible with the cars but again it's extremely unlikely to happen. The Tourist Trophy is the one I would personally like to see back under the guise of BTCC.

The TT should be a staple within the BTCC, but I don't see it working with the current 3 race format. It needs to be a unique race or event that should receive the Tourist Trophy.

I can see it as a standalone event and a successful one at that.

It'd be nice if they did something post season. Maybe an afternoon into night race at Snetterton or something (did they keep the lights with the new layout? Or were they just mobile light generators?
Rockingham too must be easier to light? )

Saw this on Motors TV's listings tomorrow, hoping it's the TC races from Oulton:

Will be worth a look whatever it is tho.

Snetterton had mobile gens. Speaking of which, 24 hour bike race just concluded at Knockhill and they say they'd be interested in doing it with cars - they were in the running for the 2CV 24 hour race this year before they decided to stay at Snet.

Yeah if they were to do that for the BTCC they'd have to hand out bonus points for those who took out the generator using an opponent car as a missile! :p

Wont be. He's got good funding. I think the negative will be in relation to Jack Goff running out of money and therefore wont be completing the season.

Good news may be that PON has the funding to replace him. Not sure till they announce it.

You're right, I think it'll be Goff being out, which would be a shame.
