    Yes we know all those!

    What about the drivers that have said on these forums that they are racing in 2008? Don't you believe them?

    How is he or anyone not involved with the running of the championship supposed to know who has registered or not? That list is a perfectly valid way of seeing who is confirmed until mid-March when the official entry list gets released.

    Oh Alfa Fan, you missed out Erkut Kizilimak:

    Exactly. That is what I have been saying for so long about so many other things. Only I was never allowed to voice my feelings in the way you have.

    So far we have not actually discussed the confirmed.

    The old codger must be going senile. He also missed out Rick Kerry in a developed 120d and John George.

    "Confirmed entries according only to press releases on the official btcc.net website."

    To date, Erkut Kizilirmak, John George and Rick Kerry have yet to publically announce their entries, thus why they have been omitted from the list.

    Kizilirmak has a stated intention to return as part of a two-car team, but as yet has not confirmed this.

    i wouldnt say robertshaw are definate yet either, their press release is more along the lines of an intention to run rather than definitley confirmed,
    also turkington is mentioned in the wsr press release only in reference to his 07 campaign, not a confirmation of him being a driver in 08 for wsr
    No, he didn\'t slam into you, he didn\'t bump you, he didn\'t nudge you...he RUBBED you. And rubbin, son, is racin\'.

    no-one is definite until the entry money has been paid over, the forms signed and then they might still not turn up at Brands Hatch for the first race.
    I've got friends racing all over the world.... good luck to you all.

    Hi guys and girls,

    I know your not meant to post links but I think that people will find this very interesting. It seems Robertshaw racing wont be entering the "Honda Team" in the BTCC. Have a look at the link.

    http://www.parcferme.com/content/view/4507/2/

    Looking forward to a very healthy grid in 2008! 32 cars will be excellent! A few more teams entering that havent come out yet.

    Cheers!
    DW Racing is go! http://www.dwracinguk.co.uk for all the latest news!

    That should make things easier for Robertshaw Racing only having to run two instead three different cars.
    Wish Michael Doyle the best of luck for this year. Since In-tune Racing are based in Glasgow, which was the last team to enter the BTCC that was based in Scotland?
