Xero skipping Brands?
I've heard that Xero aren't going to make it to Brands anymore, some hold up with parts or something, and hence why we haven't heard an announcement.
2nd place in the big quizz challenge!

I hope Xero Competition don't skip Brands Hatch. I want to see 29 cars streaming into Paddock Hill Bend and hopefully 29 exiting it on track and facing the right direction (the second part maybe asking a bit too much).
Blackadder! Blackadder! With many a cunning plan,
Blackadder! Blackadder! You horrid little man.

if the car isn't on the money then skipping Brands is logical
I've got friends racing all over the world.... good luck to you all.

i don't mean to sound rude, but i'm not entirely surprised, this isn't the fiorst time the team have promised a lot and not turned out. whilst i understand they aren't going to tell us they are struggling, i thought TDB's positive posting note seemed a little too good to be true.
i'm fully prepared to eat my words should they make it, and i genuinely do wish them the best in getting on the grid, but the "big" announcements never really happened and here we are a week from the 1st race, no confirmed entry, no confirmed drivers, no confirmed sponsors, no confirmed sight of the 2nd car and a lot of empty promises.
i hope that this is because the team are all far to busy putting the finishing touches to the cars and the deals to be best prepared for Brands, but i fear that his won't be the case. (not the lack of hard work, but the end result)
as for paddock, i'd quite like to see 29 cars exiting backwards, (all intact and able to continue obviously) and expect this is significantly more likely than all the right way round!"I" before "E" except after "C". Weird.

If he's missing he clios at Brands, he may have some involvement with the team at Brands then?

Xero seem to be the new Clyde Valley Racing (as far as btcc goes that is!).
Shame as they seemed to be a quality outfit in GT's & Sportscars.
