Red flag!

Jesus! The crashes at church just get bigger and bigger! Kinda scary to see a car flying into a wooded area upside down.

BTCC is absolutely amazing! What they have created is action packed close racing. Hope many countries will follow the example of BTCC (Are you listening FIA WTCC???)

As for Codies, maybe you don't even need the BTCC license but please create a game with just this kind of racing and rule-sets. Add "fictional" touringcars build to BTCC specs from manufactures all arround the world and you will have a killer game!

BTCC Motorsport thanks for an amazing sunday! Motorsport at it finest!!!

Awesome

[RevolvingPrawn 1]

The only problem with BTCC is the races are too short! They need to add around 5 to 8 laps onto each race :)

Those crashes at Church, wow.... So good to see everyone got out with no problems.

Great races as usual in the BTCC. I love this series.

[RevolvingPrawn 1]

Such an awesome crash lol.

Race three was brilliant, but those crashes at Church were horrific. That needs sorting before next season. Also a bit disappointing Race 2 was stopped, could've seen some good battles. And Plato had a horrific weekend :(

at least all drivers got just under a month to fix cars before next round

time for the next round this weekend at Oulton Park, I wonder if all cars get safety past turn 1 and its the full layout in use this time around

[f1since08 50]

I prefer the full Oulton Park. Does BTCC use the extra chicane or not?

I'm getting quite excited because I'm going to my first ever BTCC race day at Croft on Sunday. Given I've never sat through a whole race day on TV before it will be interesting, but judging by the excitable comments of my friends from North West Rally who I'm going with, there's paddock access and all.

I'm taking my camera, and I'll post a link to any good photos I take, plus there'll be some activity on our Facebook & Twitter pages, and probably mine too if my phone works.

@fIsince08, didn't you go last year? Are you going this time?

Sounds awesome man! Looking forward to seeing the photos. You'll have a super time, I wanna go again now! Last time for me at the touring cars was Silverstone 2011!

You'll love it :) For the price of the ticket you get a lot from the day, and it's a far more accessible sport than F1 is.

I haven't been to a race since Thruxton 2008, but I absolutely plan on going again, probably next summer when my best mate finishes uni and moves back to the local area :)

[Tommig1995 0]

Excitement level rising! Up at 7am because it's going to workout as up to a 2h30 journey tomorrow morning, including biking to the bus stop to get picked up...

@fIsince08 See you around, maybe :)

[RevolvingPrawn 1]

@Tommig1995 and @fIsince08 you guys should arrange a time and place to meet at the circuit :)

They're usually around 11:30/12 - 2/2:30 - 4:30/5 our time. Just a rough guess though bud :p

That's why I said not. :P 

Anyway the pre-race just started :)

And I just had the broken quote for the first time :P

[RevolvingPrawn 1]

Yep, I totally understand sarcasm :p

Have they given a timetable on the build up?
