Great to see a works entry but as some have stated, where are these TBL’s magically appearing from. Also not sure how to judge the level of drivers, I regretfully plead ignorance on both. Opinions people…

Toca already have one tbl ready for a works team, it looks like we will lose an entrant from this year who that will be is anyone's guess

Derek Palmer is a very able driver.

Not so sure about Hawkens capabilities?
He didn't perform too well in the BTCC test he did last year.

Yes BtccLee, with this and some other new cars in the pipeline, where are the TBL's going to come from?

I remember when Hawkens rumours first appeared and he seemed well respected as a driver.

Not doubting they have these TBLs it's just how. Yes maybe one from Gow but then where?

That is one beautiful racecar. I'm not a fan of the Infinity road-cars, but all kitted out as a BTCC car it ticks all the right boxes for me!

Why would they do that? They finally had the thing running at the end of the season.

That's assuming Power Maxed will stay with Stockton. They could as well pull a Wix based on their mediocre results and take the sponsorship to another team.

Looks like the TBLs are new ones conjured up by Alan Gow
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/116373
Quote:
Series boss Alan Gow will loan two TOCA BTCC Licenses for Infiniti's first season.

"I keep two TBLs up my sleeve for a two-car manufacturer team," Gow told AUTOSPORT. "It's great for the championship to have a new manufacturer and particularly a premium brand such as Infiniti.

It's nice to see a new name on the grid. I also find the 'Specific aim to help raise both awareness and funds for ‘Support Our Paras’ charity' interesting aswell.

Is Infiniti officially on board in this project?

[edit] Full manufacturer backing it seems from the BTCC.net article: "Some of these are manufacturer-backed, like Infiniti"

I reckon 888 will run one or two cars. Meaning a TBL or 2 will be available. I think Hynes will stay and a good shout on Ingram in the second car.

Power maxed doing a Wix and leaving Stockton is a possibility
