Do any of you follow the BTCC? I started watching it in the mid 80s, drifted away mid 90s but started to watch it again about 8 years ago.
I go to Croft every year with my Dad and i usually go to Brands for the final race of the season.
Each year it gets better and with more factory teams it's really good to watch although it won't return to anything like the days of people like Cleland and Andy Rouse. Still good to watch though.
I haven't watched much of the BTCC since I started college but I really use to enjoy it. When I first played Project Cars & seen the Ginettas & BTCC tracks, I got a little nostalgic thinking of Sundays wasted watching the BTCC on ITV 4 & is also why I use the BTCC A-Class in Forza so much.
Even if they had it as expansion for Forza 6 like NASCAR & Porsche I would definitely get it. Pity they didn't include the Honda Yuasa Civics in Forza 6.
My mem is hazzy from been a kid. Used to love the cavalier gsi's going round. Been amazed at the 850 t5r volvos (especislly as we had an rather un cool 340 at the time) and then upgraded to an 850 estate. was a bit of a turning point as s company for vovlo. (The touring cars i mean not dad buying on)
The alpha r 356 or 156 with the Italian guy i ised ti kove as well. Not sure if i used to get confused with the bmw of steve soper (did itv used to show german tc or world ?)
Any how. The chat in school on monday, if your dads car came home first it made mondays great.
I think that was the appeal of tcc evryday cars on your street or that you traveled to school in owned by freinds and dads racing bumper to bumper

I try to go to a race every year. Went to Silverstone for about 4 years and now go to Brands (it's only 15 mins away) so I'll be there at season end again. Love the BTCC, best circuit racing for me with cars I see on the M25.......well, kinda.
It's actually a thing I can't wait to do after college ends for summer, sit down on Sundays & watch the BTCC again. I used to watch that, the DTM, the GT racing & the WEC, now I barely have time to catch the ITRC & WRC highlights. Last time I watched the BTCC was when Shedden & Neal were in the Honda estates.
I made the current Subaru Legacy livery for the Impreza in Forza 6, doesn't look 100% on Impreza.
I love watching it and have been going to Silverstone for the last 4 years. would love to go to another track like brands or even knockhill. was tempted to do whole season.
