    It was more of a statement of intent rather than announcement of entry, although with Jason Hughes thats all we'll probabily get until media day.

    What about Vauxhall?

    Although not 'officially confirmed' or Front Page news on BTCC.net!

    what about.. ? http://btcc.net/html/generalnews_detail.php?id=1218

    Harrison believes his VXR crew will face one of its biggest tests yet in 2009 as Vauxhall’s BTCC campaign with its Vectra enters a third season.
    But he added: “I think we could be in a bit of trouble next year, we may struggle. We’re coming to end of the Vectra’s life in 2009 and running out of things to do with it. But that doesn’t mean to say we won’t be trying…”

    Sounds like they are coming out to me!

    Really? Because they were saying exactly the opposite.

    There must be a team somewhere that wants to sign up Jackson., the man has pure talent.
    Please ignore ALL of the above....

    I think his own team wants to keep him since they intend to be out next year! They raced in 2007 without significant backing remember.

    Not all those drivers on your list are confirmed Dazzla - this isn't the rumours thread.
