They did build an S2000 P12 Primera, however.

There were suggestions RJN might run it in 2004.

FIA WTCC (2005-2017)

I loved the WTCC when it was on, and I have rewatched a few of the races over the last couple of years (thanks COVID) A race/moment I will always point to as being one of my favourites is Race Two from the 2007 WTCC Race of Sweden at Anderstorp - simply for the shithousery from Rickard Rydell on a g...

Re: 2001-onwards BTCC Entries/Rumours that never happened

Re: JTCC

I'd be fascinated to know this as well - especially as Mazda raced the 323/Lantis domestically. Didn't seem to light the world on fire, but scored a few points. Potentially an indicator for how the Team Magic car might have fared...

Re: Super Touring Power 2

Opted for Sunday instead of Saturday like last year, so was a bit disappointed to see a very depleted grid for the Super Tourers (four cars running at the end of race 4!!) - but that's the risk you run when you go to historic events. All in all I thought the support package...
