  • Silverline Chevrolet Confirm Their Return in Btcc 2011
    For Immediate Release – Wednesday 16 th March 2011 SILVERLINE CHEVROLET CONFIRM THEIR RETURN IN BTCC 2011 Defending champions, RML Silverline-Chevrolet have confirmed they will make their much anticipated return this year to the UK's favourite motor racing series, the Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship. With the ever-popular pairing of last year's champion Jason Plato and rising star Alex MacDowall officially signed up, the team is looking ahead with excitement to the opening round which takes place at Brands Hatch in less than three weeks on 2 nd & 3 rd April. Joining the field again this year is the fiercely competitive RML-run Silverline Chevrolet Cruze which will appear in a different guise as Jason and Alex get to grips with the 2010 WTCC chassis, as raced to Drivers' and Manufacturers' titles with Yvan Muller, Rob Huff, Alain Menu and RML – the touring car giants of the modern era - in the FIA World Touring Car Championship. The Wellingborough-based squad has yet to unveil the striking 2011 challenger in full livery with the complete group of partners, which will take place at the BTCC Media Day, Silverstone, on 24 th March. But a successful test on the Brands Hatch Indy track last week alongside other series' front-runners saw the Cruzes run for the first time on UK soil in BTCC trim since their return from Macau last December. The team is confident they've got the package to beat with Jason, Alex and a technically advanced Silverline Chevrolet Cruze that looks set to be even more impressive on track than its predecessor.

  • Btcc Champs Bound for Birmingham
    BTCC CHAMPS BOUND FOR BIRMINGHAM Hometown heroes Andrew Jordan and Matt Neal and fellow British Touring Car Champion Gordon Shedden are the first drivers to join the guest list for Autosport International 2015 at Birmingham’s NEC. With another big season in the popular Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship set to conclude this weekend at Brands Hatch, the Honda trio will appear on the Saturday and Sunday of the 8-11 January show, as Autosport International celebrates its 25thanniversary. Earlier this year, three months after securing his maiden BTCC title in the dramatic 2013 season finale, Jordan celebrated with local fans at the show. The Pirtek Racing driver started his title defence strongly, with a pair of victories, however a tough mid-season run at Snetterton and Knockhill hurt his chances. With four victories, Jordan is fifth in the 2014 standings heading to this weekend’s final round, and also claimed a podium in a one-off FIA World Rallycross Championship appearance at Lydden Hill. “Winning the British Touring Car Championship in 2013 is something I’ll always remember, and being able to share that with so many enthusiastic, local fans at Autosport International in January was special,” Jordan said. “While ultimately this season hasn’t gone our way, we’re already planning for 2015, and Autosport International will be a great way to kick off the new year.” Three-time champion Neal and 2012 titlist Shedden showed off their new Honda Civic Tourer at Autosport International 2014, with the estate attracting plenty of attention from BTCC fans. It has been a race winner in the hands of both drivers, with Shedden currently third in the championship and Neal eighth.

    6.3.5. Register notes - SF April 2015 E-mail: [email protected] Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/MG635Register Twitter: https://twitter.com/635register Welcome to the 635 Register newsletter this month! For the newest of the MG marque, we have been steadily building a following of new owners some of which are existing MG owners and others new to the marque who are extremely impressed by the great value for money these cars are offering. Sales of the MG3 continue to steadily increase with more being seen on the road. So far in 2015, there have been 198 cars registered, which is an increase of 13 over last year. The MG6 facelift is being eagerly awaited and we hope to see a big advertising campaign to promote one of the best kept secrets in the automotive industry to the wider general public. There has certainly been a lot more TV advertising since Christmas, which is great. There has been a flurry of activity with the new 15 plate registrations at the beginning of March. Its great to see so many new owners photographed picking up their cars on the Facebook pages from the sales centre in Longbridge and dealers all around the country. There also seems to be a very noticeable increase in younger owners, which is great for the future of MG. Telford MG has opened a £1-million new showroom in the heart of the town’s ‘motor alley’ and sold a new MG33STYLE to a delighted 21-year-old Alix Lye on the opening day.

    FIA WTCC NEWSLETTER # 46 – 23 November 2007 RECORD CROWD ATTENDED MACAU EVENT A record crowd attended the 54th Macau Grand Prix event that included the FIA WTCC finale. According to the figures released by the Macau Grand Prix Committee last Monday, 55,000 spectators gathered on the grandstands along the Guia Track over the weekend, while an estimated 200,000 more watched the races from hotel rooms, flats and restaurants’ terraces around the track. PRIAULX: STORY OF A PHENOMENON Andy Priaulx began his route to become one of the most successful touring car drivers ever four years ago when he clinched the 2004 FIA European Touring Car Championship crown in Dubai. 2004: ETCC, DUBAI – He arrived in the Emirate state with a 12-point gap behind fellow BMW driver Dirk Müller and finished second in both races, equalling Müller’s 111 points but beating him by the dead heat (5 wins against 3). 2005: WTCC, MACAU – In the following season, the first of the new World Touring Car Championship, Müller and Priaulx arrived to the last round in Macau separated by only one point, with Alfa Romeo’s Fabrizio Giovanardi third with a 5-point gap. Again two second places enabled Priaulx to overturn the situation. 2006: WTCC, MACAU – No less than nine drivers arrived in Macau still in contention for the 2006 world championship. Alfa Romeo’s Augusto Farfus was leading before the final round, only one point ahead of the Priaulx-Jörg Müller duo. Priaulx set pole position and won the first race, with Müller sixth; as the German won the second race a fifth place was enough for Priaulx to grab his third title by one point.
