I'll stick with my comment a while ago that she will be in a IS200. She got to know the back of Adam Jones white Lexus very well - infact that was what she used as her braking point on most corners of the UK circuits!Quote:

MN showed quite a few things on its entry list but it doesn't mean they are all correct.
Show me your evidence to suggest they are definetly only running one car then?
I see it as this
*Last year the team said they wanted to run 2/3 BMWs in 2007
*Martyn Bell confirmed as returning in his 320i E46 with the team
*Also stated that there was lots of exciting developments in the near future
*btcc.net article has also recently hinted at two cars for GSR
*MN did show two GSR cars in their entry list
you never no Alfa fan that GR Motorsport Alfa 147 that you were going on about years ago may finally turn up!
Is this a joke?Quote:

Correct!Quote:

Think you should know this bit is correct the amount of times he told you and complained about it, ask a certain other person on this forum.Quote:

Presumably Howell's '05 was developed for 2006, leaving just the one (Shedden '06) Integra left? Is that right?Quote:

5 cars built, 1 left. Well that's what we think we know anyway! Could be a lot going on behind closed doors that we don't know about.
Talking of Dan Eaves any insider or other info on him yet People??????????
When/If Darrele races in BTCC it won't be in Mark's Alfa.Quote:

Does anyone know what is going on regarding Pinkey and March- im stering to get worried that they wont be on the grid this year
There'd better be an integra left as the Brands Hatch site says Neal will be doing demo laps in it at the open day in a weeks time! (14th) Unless they bring the Civic down which would be v nice.
Looking more forward to seeing the A4 DTM and Priualx's new 320si anyway. Chances are Matt won't finish a demo lap, he'll either end up in Paddock or Druids gravel.
Dynamics have a road-legal Integra mocked up to look like the BTCC racer - if all the cars have been sold the demo laps may be in the mockup!Quote:

noticed the GSR transporter is for sale http://www.racecarsdirect.com/viewlisting.php?view=8035 have they bought a new one
He is contracted to Clyde Valley Racing!Quote:

Not really! I thought it was quite clear!Quote:

I guess CVR may just have first refusal on Eaves' services... I doubt a driver like him would lock himself into a contract with a team that doesn't have solid plans for the season!
It could be down to how much money he has put into the team!Quote:

Lets face it, Clyde Valley convinced a lot of people here that they were going to be in the 2007 BTCC!!!!
Just not the right people!Quote:
