Tom Cave confirms he's looking to pull together budget to do the BRC next year in an R5. Says on Twitter's he'll be at round one at the least.
He'd be a great asset to the series. Was sad to see he had to cut his Wales GB event short.RS Motorsport Media - Follow me on Instagram: rsmotorsportmedia

This may really be the case. Since 2008 financial troubles, MMC adopted a "politically correct" environmental posture, throwing away decades of prestigious motorsport heritage.
It's hard to see MMC turning their back on thousands of rally costumers that uses Evo's in almost every local rally series around the world. The Evo was the 90's and 00's Escort, and Mitsubishi should recognize the relevance of the Evo brand.
It's true that they've managed to get finances in order with the current strategy, but they risk to be irrelevant niche players in the global car market (the range almost resumes to midget cars and 4x4 suv's) and become an easy prey for the auto industry sharks.Rally addict since 1982

Seems to be some big BRC news coming tomorrow. Lots of people very excited including the series organisers.
Hope the momentum picks up and continues to keep rolling ahead of round 1.RS Motorsport Media - Follow me on Instagram: rsmotorsportmedia

Early copy of Motorsport News says it's a calendar change - with the Manx and Nicky Grist Stages coming in - and the Jim Clark and Granite City going out for a variety of reasons.
Hoping there's more news coming as that's been massively overhyped if that's all it is.RS Motorsport Media - Follow me on Instagram: rsmotorsportmedia

Tuthill with 2 Cayman GT4 Clubsport RGT!!! (kidding)
Abbring in the new i20 R5!!! (not kidding)
Anyway, Skoda, Ford, Peugeot, Citroen, Subaru, Vauxhall, Proton...and hope Tuthill, they'll all be there using R5, N4, R2, R3, S2000 and RGT top machines. No doubt this revamp BRC will be the series to watch in 2016, and that's great news for global rallying.
Iconic rally nations must lead the sport with strong national champs (hope France and Italy will do it too, soon) and this BRC layout, with rational regs, a balanced calendar and, hopefully, a proper promotion, will probably became the standard for national series around the world.
Looking forward to it!Rally addict since 1982

So much potential - but it needs more people to start confirming their entries.

So they were hyping the s*** out of some news to be announced today and it really turned out to be just a calendar change, lol.
