2007 Season

[Garyc]

Does everybodya agree next year will be a very interesting time for the championship as many of the teams are going to be changing cars including championship winning team dynamics. Has anybody heard anything about what cars they possibly might be using next season. Vauxhall I believe are going back to using the Vectra which will mean a hard development programme. Seat might have the advantage in the early part of next season due to knowing the car better than the rest.

we know that VXR are probs gonna use the Vectra, Motorbase will be using 3 Seat's which were used in 05. thats the only 2 we will definatly know, but plenty of others are sorta like certainties i think.

That is a long list of people and cars for next year.
I do think its god when people start announcing cars and line ups for the coming year early as it give other teams looking to enter a bit of a push, they would want to enter if they knew it was going to be a great season.

The switch over to S2000 cars means there should be more cars available to buy, and with the added intest of sil being able to use BTC spec cars.

2007 should be massive, and lets hope we have the same ontrack action as weve seen this year, more cars dont make better racing.

thats ok mate.

do we expect to see them all?

I'd like to see the Chevy with WSR as they've had basically the same car for 5/6 yrs. Chevy has came good in WTCC of late. Seats increased enteries would be good. Having Thompson in championship full time will be a bonus if it materialises. Would also be good with Team Dynamics with a bunch of BMW's which im sure would be of high standard. Have you watched the WTCC lately

[mattlovestbs]

haven't watched, but i do keep up to date.

the Alfas would be a good bet, they seem well nippy
