Just saying, but, although you guys are technically correct with Plato staying quiet when the MG's been dominant, for a car with 45KG to be on pole by 3 tenths, clearly something is a bit......

*Yes I know Croft is a RWD track, but still....*
 
I'm sure Jordan and Plato have both been on pole with max ballast haven't they?

Yeah. I'm pretty sure they(one or both of them) managed pole earlier this season with max ballast. It wasn't to the tune of 4 tenths of a second, but Croft is a RWD favoring track

@ITVSport
#BTCC tyre choices for today: Jack Goff & Hunter Abbott to use softs in race 1, Tom Ingram & Martin Depper race 2. Everyone else in race 3.
 
Ooops :lol: Take 2!
 
I was thinking: Here we go!!

That's a bit long....

Ermm.

*engines stop revving*

*3min board goes up

Okay.
 
Erm, that went really well.

I blame Ollie Jacksons Proton, shockwaves from that loud rascal broke the system!
 
I remember last time they used a flag to start a race, Colin Turkington got a penalty for going when the flag moved up instead of dropping.

When was that?
 
Jordan punts Neal, around goes Austin. Foster now holds Croft lap record as Goff goes spinning :lol:

EDIT: Battle Royale at back :lol:

Turkington won by 7 seconds with full ballast. I know this is more of a BMW track but that's quite a gap.
 
The battles down the order made that race. Sherman imitating a certain red Honda there.
 
Oh well lucky collard thought better of getting into the back in plato, Or he would of been complaining about it aswell. He has moaned and whinged enough already.

Paul if you can tell Dickie if you can get to him to tell collard fire Plato off next time and congratulate Turkey for me.
 
I see Plato is moaning again on touring car times. "This is the death of front wheel drive in BTCC".

Hmmmm... Plato personally, I think you should of thought of that before WSR developed their car fully and started going fast.

Like seriously, "Oh lets use a race car in which the front wheels are powered only, is front heavy, unstable in the rear, will suddenly snap if you brake and turn wrong, chews its front tyres like they going out of fashion, has poor weight distribution,

Did i forget anything ??

No, In all seriousness its a good championship but i do think in time when the rear wheel drive cars are fully developed the front wheel drive cars will be obsolete.

But I'm Australian, What would i know about 4Cyl FWD's. ??

Oh FFS...
 
It is actually an issue with the regulations. The rules don't allow the teams to develop anything as alot of the parts are to spec.
 
But it's not the death of FF cars. That's typical Plato whinging.
 
That was odd Warren..

Oh ex-Renault teamies together :lol:

Well, Plato's driving is getting worse the more frustrated he's getting.
