A new championship Junior Touring Car Championship starts this year in April, do you guys think that it could be as big as other touring car championships like the BTCC?
What's your opinion?
This is the first I've heard about it – any more information about it?
In short though, no, a junior/feeder series will never be as big as a main series.
Are we talking a feeder series, like the old National Saloon Car Cup/Championship of the 1990s, or the Sport Maxx/Production Cup of more recent years? As good as those series are, they never tend to attract many entries for very long.
Or is that word "Junior" indicative of a T-Cars-style revival? Only the Ginetta Juniors have ever attracted a decent grid among those series for youngsters, and even they were struggling last year. Either way then, it's a no from me, whatever their merits.
