Jaguar & Peugeot Keen On Scv8
The new SCV8 Supercar Championship announced last week is gaining momentum thanks to a positive response from manufacturers. Jaguar and Peugeot have already offered support for the series.
550bhp, V8 powered X Types and 406s could therefore be amongst the first cars to be entered for next year's races. The simplicity of the regulations should mean that manufacturers can get cars on track shortly after their launch, making the series a powerful marketing tool. Peugeot UK Head of Motorsport, Mick Linford commented, “The SCV8 Supercar Championship brings a fresh approach to saloon car racing and is certainly a series that opens up new opportunities to manufacturers. The unique design approach also means that new models can quickly be introduced into the Championship which could add a special dimension to any manufacturers launch programmes, with the car being seen on track at the same time that it is introduced on the road.” The new SCV8 Supercar Championship is well advanced in its development with the championship programming pending MSA approval in the near future.  http://www.pistonheads.com/motorspor...p?storyId=6980 New SCV8 series should spice things up nicely! There's a new championship about to be launched and it could fill a nice little niche in the UK race scene. The last few years have seen the British Touring Car Championship degrade from the heady days of exciting saloon racing into hot hatch racing. Whilst it still draws huge crowds and some good racing there are many who yearn to see big, powerful saloons dicing with each other. Classic saloon racing is alive and well, but there are few contemporary saloons rubbing door handles currently. That could be about to change with the new SCV8 Supercar Championship. Next year we could see V8 powered, 550bhp rear wheel drive saloons racing. The formula is in its final stages of prepartion and plans so far are for two races per meeting and will feature popular mid range, four door saloons. The organisers are hoping that the grid of twenty cars will comprise of Jaguars, Audis, MGs, Peugeots, Fords and more. The regulations will written in a manner intended to keep costs considerably lower than those incurred by the top touring car teams. The team are planning to run the series on the same billing as the current British GT and F3 tour, no doubt boosting the popularity of that tour considerably. A terrestrial TV package is also planned http://www.pistonheads.com/motorspor...p?storyId=6956 De duitse V8Star vond ik vorig jaar geweldig, maar door slecht management en dergelijke zit die serie een beetje in het slop. Aan de andere kant van het Kanaal gaan ze het nu ook proberen........hopelijk leren ze van de fouten die de duitsers hebben gemaakt. Het oog wil ook wat, die Jaguar (mwoa.....frame met Jaguar plaatwerk) kan mijn goedkeuring wel wegdragen.

De redend at ASCAR nooit echt van de grond is geraakt is omdat er met Amerikaanse modellen (ford Taurus, Pontiac Grand prix en Chevy Monte Carlo) gereden wordt. Dit zou wel eens goed kunnen uitdraaien voor deze serie. Maar in Engeland zijn ze wel bezig met een hoop series te creëren, dat kan niet goed blijven gaan.

Nou uitlekken.......vorige week stond een groot stuk in de Autosport. Waarin Andy Rouse het e.e.a. verteld over dit nieuwe kampioenschap. Ze testen het prototype al sinds 2001.................echt geheim is het nooit geweest. Heb daar al vaker kleine stukjes van gelezen in de Autosport.

Peugeot en Jaguar zouden beter meedoen aan de DTM ipv nog maar eens een aparte serie te starten. En dan maar janken achteraf dat er zoveel kampioenschappen kapot gaan bij gebrek aan fabrieksteams enz. Niet moeilijk als ieder merk in een aparte serie wil rijden met slechts enkele merken. Of vergis ik mij?
Concept van beide kampioenschappen zal wel anders zijn, maar vooraleer je besluit erin te stappen, moet zoiets toch overwogen worden. Dat de organisatoren eens rond de tafel zouden gaan zitten, zou ook al wel helpen.

groot verschil...SCV8 gaat om honderduizenden euro's, DTM gaat om tientallen miljoenen euro's.

kleine update:
Positief: het eerste model met jaguar-look heeft getest. Er zijn dus nu al drie varianten beschikbaar, 406-look en de vectra-look. Negatief: De organisatie van de F3 en GT kampioenschappen heeft geen behoefte om deze klasse in het programma op te nemen. Rouse heeft daarop besloten alleen verder te gaan..............of dat goed is weet ik niet. Als randprogramma krijg je dan allemaal van die kleine lokale klasse als dagvulling.........
