Alfa Fan has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
They hope to run three in Britain in 2006, along with their Integras

Well it would be six in total. It would surprise me, but if ever there was an independent team capable of it, then its Team Dynamics. The Integras being run for a customer by Dynamics is the mostly likely option.

Well, that sounds very expensive. Especially since there's only two or two and a half S2000 Accords existing.

One is in WTCC, the other in STCC and the third was crashed during a WTCC race earlier this year.

It would be a strange decision by Dynamics. Developing and building 2 new cars for this season and after 1 succesful year already switching to the Accord. The Integra's are competative in BTCC so there's no need for a change, but if they move to WTCC they need to switch...

Tomas Engstrom is also racing with his Accord at the WTCC race in Spain.

They're negotiating a deal with JAS is the last I heard. Dynamics would act as an importer team in the UK. Not exactly sure of the details.

The Integras are not really new cars. Nearly all of the mechanical part are ex-Civic. They switched body shape to reduce drag. They need a new car as even the Integra is looking like it may fall behind the new Astra

There was something said on the TV Coverage after Knockhill by Steve Neal was that there is some sort of deal with Castrol and all will become clear at Brands.

Team Dynamics can always try to tune in the Accord for BTCC tracks. If they really encounter (though I doubt it) a lot of challenges, they can always jump back into the Integra for the rest of the season? Though as someone suggested, are there really any drivers with money around to race in the BTCC? If they had money, wouldn't they already be racing in it already?

Synchro has backing from a specific Honda factory. Everyone who works with Synchro at race meetings has a 9-5 job with Honda.

Yes. All the people who do Synchro stuff are full time employees at Honda's Swindon plant.

I believe Dynamics are one of the teams pitching for the contract to build and run BTCC cars for Kia - should they give the project the green light.
