Just seen this on another forum

Interesting, anyone got some decent info on the team? Is it a manufacture team, or independant?

Independant with a pretty average driver who seems to believe he is the greatest touring car driver to ever grace the planet.

Thought it was independant duee to the fact it doesnt look like a floating blue oval.

Really?
I'm a big fan of the Focus, but in my opinion its quite possibly one of the worst looking btcc cars i've seen.

Why not use the mondeo, the focus is nice but it doesn't look quite right.

Length regulations iirc.


I think all the crs now have to be saloons eg 4 or 5 door, it to avoid cars like honda integras, bmw coupes which would be faster than everything else.
