SuperTouring - Massive budgets, superstar driver's, huge crowds and awesome racing

I'm watching the highlights of the Knockhill BTCC round. I want to like it, I should like it, it's terrific racing, but somehow...... well it's just not SuperTouring car racing. This is 2023 Brands Hatch SuperTouring festival, couldn't get to this year's...... No apology for the Nissan centric batch of photos, but at the moment, they're the cars to beat.

Eclectic Prescott

Eclectic mix at Prescott Historique meeting in May. From humble, although some indecently quick, Austin 7's to Renaults Turbo charged 5 hatchback, rubbing shoulders with modern ish single heaters and the mighty ERA'S. #Prescott #prescotthistorique #austinseven #renault5turbo #formula500 #historicformula3 #vscc #vintageracecar #cooperf500 #norton500

Roger Bell. Dealer Team BMW Mathwall Engineering 3.0Si Prod Saloon

OK, so these weren't taken by me. my late father in his Dealer Team BMW Rothmans sponsored E3 3.0Si Prod Saloon racer. Without stating the obvious, the last photo is not an E3, but do you know which Ferrari it is? #bmw #bmwe3 #bmw30si #mathwallengineering #mathwall #dealerteambmw #prodsaloon #productionsaloon #rogerbell #rogerbelljournalist
