Guess that confirms the new Type-R. Was it ever going to be anything but?

Not sure it does, those lights are nothing like the Type R.

Here's the production car for comparsion.

Literally identical.

 

[mustafur]

Yeah but they are much different colour, the new Civic will have those rear lights in Red though.

I guess it could be though, it's not easy finding the right rear picture of this car due to the amount of concept BS that comes up when you look on Google.

Normal Civic:

No... the picture I linked shows identical rear lights on the production model...

Oh http://www.itv.com/btcc/motorbase-withdraws-from-btcc

 

[paulmac2k9]

Only for the first half of the season. Apparently will be back at Snetterton.

That's a shame. I hope they can get a decent new sponsor sorted out soon.

 

[Bo]

Wow...

@Furinkazen driver line up look familiar

 

[Furinkazen]

I'm seeing parallels with with Robb Holland saying he was doing a part time year.

Oh and, errr driver news tonight at 8pm I hear from somebody.

AMD with the S3? Don't know why as they will just have the same issue as laser tools and Wix racing running 2 different types of cars doesn't make any sense and the will give back different data and different set ups.

Power max have bought the second ua Toyota break it for parts and fkr the TBL.

Saw pictures of the ToCA license donor Toyota last week at the UA base. Also interested in the rumoured second AMD tuning NGTC.

My point is, Holland said he was doing a part time year. TBL's are full time unless someone has already a plan in place.

EDIT:

Rob has just said "wait until media day" since...



Meet the fresh Sherman and Panzer...

Say WHAT?!

 

[Holdenhsvgtsr]

Don't say you didn't know!

 

[Furinkazen]

I heard about it a long time ago as a possibility but quite honestly didn't think it would happen.

Been known for a while it was just waiting to see if the S3 would be repaired.

Nice A5's posted above.

Inbound lawyers perhaps on the Hamilton case...

Inbound lawyers perhaps on the Hamilton case...

For what reason?

 

[Bo]

For what reason?

Embargo on the story until next Wednesday, Downforce completely ignored it and posted it a week early as a scoop.

Not really a legal issue though it just means they won't get told stuff in the future.

 

[Furinkazen]

Suppose its trust... I knew for instance of the Plato BMR deal a full 4/5 weeks before it was announced, but kept shut

 

[mikeerfol]

Here it is!

 

[mustafur]

looks good, but not much different to the old Hatchback, would like to see how it goes with the livery though.

 

[TheCracker]

It has the 2015-style facelift. Hardly a massive surprise.

 

[Furinkazen]

30 cars for Carreras. They might be worth watching now...

 

[Valkyr1313]

Apparently Marc Hynes is not going to be competing in the 3rd MG6 as he is involved in the rebuilding of Manor F1.
