• Andy Neate looks set to finally make a proper entry to the BTCC, after a couple of aborted attempts. (Probably in a WSR BMW)[/*:m:2ljd6316]
• Their may be a Turkish surprise before March :) [/*:m:2ljd6316]

Anything else?

Not sure about Leason, he always tends to make announcements and plans but unfortunately they all fall apart early into the season if he makes it that far. As for Andy Neate everything seems to be pointing towards him finally making the grid, we probably wont find out officially until media day? for the first time in a couple of years it appears his website has been updated, well holding page at least. It has a reference to the BTCC in it anyway...http://www.andyneate.co.uk

That reminds me, Didnt Erkut Kizilirmak say at the end of the 08 season that he was taking a year out but wanted to return to the BTCC?

If it the combination I've heard (with 888), Nick will have nothing to blame but himself this time if it doesn't work out..

Yes. AND he said he would be in a Vectra!!!

So...that's

Pinkney
Jordan

in Vectras for sure

Leason
Kizilirmak

also in Vectras?

And still Triple Eight running 2.

6 into 4 (max) certainly doesn't go. J & P already announced plans so those 2 seem fairly certain. Leason & Kizilirmak in 888 Vectras? I would love to see Erkut back :)

Well, if it is six then that will be okay. It just means that one team will have more work to get ready for the new season...

i think WSR's 3rd driver is gonna be Andy Neate which will be nice to see and as for the triple eight car i hope its Giovanardi
