    Team RAC BMWs

    Great news that Team RAC has confirmed a pair of BMWs for 2007.

    Nice pictures at http://www.teamrac.com/gallery_search.asp?photo_cat=90

    The car looks stunning - can't wait for the season to begin!

    They're also getting BMW engineers to help out at the pre-season tests and the first few race meetings which should help them hit the ground running.

    I'm looking forward to next season now

    With SEAT's, Vectra, New Civic, and BMW's (3 series and 1 series) at the front it should be very interesting Maybe WSR could have an advantage at the start of the season as the Vectra and Civic will need more development.

    I would have prefered it though if the cars were backed from BMW and were white and Blue with BMWmotorsport stickers.

    Just seen those pics.
    I think that BMW looks fantastic in the orange, black and white livery.

    looks great, and if anyone has the tools to make the BMW a competitve force in the BTCC then its WSR (excluding a works BMW team obviously! )

    i think that they should be able to get a little more out of the car than GSR, i don't think they had the budget nor the experience at the BTCC level to fully exploit the car last year, i expect WSR to go much better, plus they are using a newer car also.
    "I" before "E" except after "C". Weird.

    Where did GSR run in? The WTCC?

    Anyway, I am more concerned at the fact they are actually able to run them. And with help from BMW Motorsport they ought to be really strong.

    GSR (Geoff Steel Racing) ran Martyn Bell in the BTCC last year using an ex-Dirk Muller, 2005 BMW 320.i E46.

    SEATFreak! GSR - Geoff Steel Racing, who ran Martyn Bell's BMW 320i E46 in 2006, and will continue to do so in 2007.
