I'll say all that too :D

[Frozzy]

hmm looks like i will be participating in the BRC as well as a full wrc attack

[tannat]

I may find funding to do selected rounds.......

[Frozzy]

hmm looks like i will be participating in the BRC as well as a full wrc attack
i may have to only participate in selected events as well depending on how my main Wrc campaign goes

[Rat]

Pawprint, It looks like we may have a chance this year. After reading some of these posts, some entrants are doing selected rounds only. We have to do all rounds to get the points need to win...

[UKOG~Will]

And on that note I'll confirm a full season

Great! I'm in (hopefully I'll get time. Seeing some results in the WRC may prioritise either series).

[Rat]

That's ok, i'll be doing all rounds of the WRC & BRC. I need the fun time anyway...

[kabouter]

I might do some BRC events as well in preparation for the challenges of the WRC, all time permitting of course. I don't know if the other half of Curtans RallyBase Motorsport is going to join me but judging from his comments in the WRC thread he could use the practice as well ;)

[pettersolberg29]

I'll be entering for my first full season in the BRC, as well as my entry in the WRC.

Do we need to get in doubles like in the WRC, or are we all privateers? And do we PM to enter, or is this entry enough?

Hi and welcome to the championship!

There is no teams-championship in this years BRC, but the WRC teams would be welcome to enter.

All you have to do to enter is to submit a timecard before the deadline of the Rally you want to participate in.

[pettersolberg29]

Does that mean we can change cars throughout the season, if we aren't in a pre-selected team?

PRESS RELEASE:


Mitsubishi Motors annouced today a full works effort in the 2008 BRC, perhaps culminating in a 2009 WRC effort. In a complex deal Mitsubishi Motor's
Competition arm-Ralliart was able to strike a deal with Suzuki Motorsports to secure the talents of driver Tannat.

"For certain this will be a busy year for us as our primary obligation is to Suzuki Motorsports. However, we hope to make a positive contribution to Mitsubishi's efforts this year in the BRC and, perhaps help elevate them to the WRC for 2009."

Ralliart was recently spied testing in Corsica in preparation for the tarmac events in this year's BRC:

PRESS RELASE:

"After lots of negotiation time and talks with sponsors, Citroën Total Sport have decided to show up for the two first rounds of the BRC, coming with the all new C4 WRC car and exciting driver Jso1985"
"Right now the team is really busy and concentrated on the WRC programme so they can't guarentee me to give a car for a full season on the BRC, still I have 2 chances to show them I'm worth a full season, so I guess it's up to me now!" stated the Bolivian driver

[I am evil Homer]

Team manager called last night to ask about the BRC...looks like both C4s will be in attendancde :D

PRESS RELEASE:

Subaru works team driver ps29 will abandon ARB Racers at certain points during the season to ensure a productive season in the BRC is completed, and to improve ps29's chances for the 2009 WRC crown. Expert Sport WRT have snapped him up to drive a prepared ex-Henning Solberg Peugeot 307.

"We are pleased to aid ps29 in his quest for BRC and WRC glory. Wins are not a realistic podiums, but we are hoping for one top 5 finish this year - we know he'll be strong in Yorkshire especially," Expert Sport WRT said.

ps29 was unable to comment but was quoted to be 'ecstatic' after he completed his first test in his 307 in Finland, seen below:
