    Castrol Canadian Touring Car Championship

    I'm just wondering if anyone else here is a fan of the Canadian Touring Car Championship? It's a good series that was founded in just 2007 and is gaining a lot of momentium very quickly.

    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    Apparently rather ill-defined ones. It would appear that under the regs, provided you could get a Subaru STI and provided you modified the "stock" version you could approximate something close to a WRC Group N car.

    Most of the modifications allowed are "free".
    The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

    The Castrol Touring Car series is just Ontario based and is really just an amateur season that grew out of the ashes of the old Firehawk Enduroseries.

    They allow a mishmash of stuff in it, and most of the car are GT cars that are in various mod's. I have seen everything to a GT-5 class 1300 cc Honda Civic that is 20 years old or more running right up to some pretty serious GT-1 class Corvettes and Porsches.

    They actually put on a pretty good show for the most part. Doing track rescue it's been a while since I've seen a series get 50 cars out to a single race weekend here...

    Looks like a fun series. But that's in Canada and I'm in Ireland so won't be able to watch the racing any time soon. Thanks for putting me wide to it nonetheless.
