No offence but we felt so sorry for this car, it was lapped by the front runners in every race and even the old BTC spec cars left it half a lap behind.

Like the way it made no noise apart from the turbo whistle but it needs a decent engine and it'll be right up the front.

Give the car some time. Kerry and his team have had very limited testing and were down on power. They will undoubtedly make improvements throughout the year and gain pace.

Didn't he beat an Integra in race 1

It has alot more updates to come

Well its a new thing for them and everyone so this season will be a test for them as they modify the car's setup till they get it right.

Considering it;s the first ever Diesel, i've seen a LOT worse efforts at the BTCC with much better equipment *cough* Varta

bit harsh isnt it, main thing for them is the car actually running! give em time lol

Well however many improvements they make on the car there is one thing I don't think they can change. It's an ugly car

bearing in mind that Rick Kerry and his squad have developed the car from scratch the fact that they are there shows a lot. Of course comments like the heading to this thread really encourages guys like Rick to come on here and have a chat with us fans :-(
