Think the S2000 cars with NGTC engines will still be allowed to race next year but the performance gap to the full NGTC cars will be bigger to make everyone switch.

Ollie had some balls I gotta say with the way he hung the little Golf round the high line in turn 1...brave man.

Not so lucky was Jeff Smith who got it wrong and mashed the rear end of the Civic into the wall.

You've gotta feel sorry for the teams when they have big accidents like jeff smith it looked like a definate re-shell which must be a big hit for the small teams who don't have a lot of money,when it happens in f1 you never even think about

ITV need to sort there coverage out, completely missed Gordon Shedden's tank slapper on turn one which he managed to save, epic car control and would be a worthy champion

I'm hoping that 'Flash' Gordon wins the championship this year - He's a very good competitor and seems such a nice guy too. I don't care how talented a driver Plato is, I try to like him and then he says something else for me to dislike him again.

I'm going to Silverstone this weekend to watch the touring cars. First time I've seen them racing so looking forward to it.

Anyone seen them at Silverstone before? Just wondering what the traffic will be like getting in. I'm guessing it wont be as bad as when the F1 are racing!

I have to say that irrespective of his driving I really don't like Plato. I want Flash Gordon to win the championship as I think he deserves it and seems a very nice guy too.

Flash is just as dirty as Plato in punting people out of the way!  :fighting:

Think Plato will nab the title at Brands. He lost an engine in Race 2 but he does have the fastest car by some way
