I love motors TV 
I have watched the BTCC season preview about 20 times in the last week though. It's on all the time.

btcc-best championship in world, well maybe except for dtm, so i guess i'll put it that touring car racing is the best by far, these guys know how to drive unlike half of the f1 drivers who are too scared to try and pass

DTM is just brutal, so much better than the BTCC
but the BTCC used to be good, back in the Tarquini/Cleland/Hoy days

its a lot more real, you can relate to a cavalier or laguna boning round a track more easily than a random 4 wheeled one off
