BTCC has been and will be some of the best racing out there. No question. I have always rated it as high as the nutty Aussies and their V8 supercars.

Europe's version of NASCAR on road courses...Very cool to watch. They get some big crowds to spectate at these races.

I haven't seen this for a few years, so glad it's back on TV. The circuits are cut and thrust, makes for great racing. Always liked Knockhill best!

It sounds so strange when they say "Chevy".
How about the one corner that they all completely cut.

I'm sure the elevation at Knockhill is far more undulating than TV seems.
That hilltop chicane is fantastic.

Yeah. Was it me, or does a course like that look like a hillclimb on some public roads that just happens to loop back to the same point? One of those places where wheel-to-wheel is beyond intense, but open lapping would be pretty fun.
