Once again I managed to forget all about the TV coverage of the BTCC. So, in this all exciting BTCC season that's got us all so rivetted this year, did I actually miss anything worth watching?

Good thing you taped it considering it was obviously so boring that you had to fall asleep when it was on

The coverage of the second race race was a preview of what we will see next year. they showed more class B then ST "action". I hope they will race with saloons next year that peugeot looks horrible (sorry peugeot fans, personal opinion).

Tracey, i'd like a look at that tape if it's OK ? I want to see what happened to that Matt Neal oaf...

jc, the Pug is no more at the end of this season as they are launching the 307 next year and they are gonna run with that.
PS What is wrong with a 306 ? They handle great on the loose...

No, no, you can't mention Pugs and loose gravel... you might get Pete in here getting all worried. You know he's still needing counselling after his experiences of gravel at Donington
All I can say is I'm glad I was only watching from the car behind

Well someone had to take over the role of Chief Oaf in the BTCC that was vacated by David Leslie and Matt Neal obviously decided that he was the ideal person thhis season

You didn't miss anything that amazing, some impressive demonstrations of football (!?) and a good crash between Radermecker and Reid that prompted Charlie Cox to observe, "Looks like he's turned it into an Astra." Otherwise, I can't really think of much else, although definately the action was a tad better than some of the races this season.

Strangely enough I remember saying that when we saw it at Silverstone - no-one thought it was very funny then, either...

Both of them tried really hard at Silverstone to score more points in the Top Oaf contest - with Menu's spin on the parade lap, and Thompson causing the 'Radermecker -> Reid -> 5door Astra' incident at Brooklands. |

Menu and Thompson don't need to try, they're already well up there in the oaf stakes

You lucky bugger Vader, I would have done anything to be at Le Mans, did it take a few cans of Red Bull to keep you going?
One more thing. France would narmally be considered French, although maybe your education didn't stretch that far....
