I doubt if any "new" drivers would want to join a new series and have to pay the high entree fee's to do so instead of running in smaller clubie meetings (ie SEMSEC) at present possibly?? Another waste of time I say!
You're missing the point here. What is being proposed is a national production car championship running races solely for production cars, not just as a class in a dull, boring endurance 'race' or as a local championship.

I'd expect this to attract a lot of the manufacturers currently not running in TOCA (Ford, Alfa, Renault, Nissan, Volvo, etc., etc......the list is endless!); costs would be much lower & the cars more identifiable as something the punter can actually.

Let's just hope the people organising it can impose a higher level of driving standards than we see in TOCA......
