Putting this here as he is ex-BTCC, Tom Oliphant has once again teased on Twitter that there is exciting racing news from him coming soon.
As an aside, he still has BTCC in his Twitter name - "Tom Oliphant BTCC". Most likely he just hasn't changed it, but would certainly be interesting if he does come back to the UK for some racing. |

The BMW liveries have been to promote a particular product within the BMW UK portfolio - it would be very easy to generate a completely different livery should they want to promote a different product.

No surprise Colin is back. Be interesting to see how the rest of the grid fills up. Or rather how soon it fills up

Would expect that BTC’s “big news” will be an expansion into another series, likely British GT or something of sorts. Pretty sure Cook will be retained and I also have a suspicion that the first driver teaser photo is Plato.

I think the big news is the rebrand/rename. I'm thinking a possible expansion to 4 cars as well

Guessing the announcements have been delayed a little bit!

Call me an old cynic, but the more teams trail a huge announcement the more I think it will be unremarkable

BTC Racing updating and teasing us. Looks like Drew Crees can’t keep a secret. He’s been Tweeting stuff alluding to Moffat linking up with BTC for a week or so. |

If Moffat is potentially racing for BTC Racing this year, I wonder whether the two Aiden Moffat Racing TBLs will be unused?
It would explain why Autosport's most recent BTCC article [https://www.autosport.com/btcc/news/...ason/10429315/] only had 27 names or TBAs at the bottom (4x Motorbase, 4x WSR, 4x Excelr8, 2x Dynamics, 3x BTC, 3x Speedworks, 5x HARD, 2x PMR) as opposed to the 29 it should list. |

Other team members then? From Jade’s posts she looks to be short of sorting a 2023 deal. Butel? Proctor was also giving off positive vibes and clearly has close links to Dudman still.
I’m going Cook + Gamble + Butel at BTC and Moffat and Proctor in the Aiden Moffat garage and hospitality tent. |
