I believe Richard owned it himself but it was impounded by the authorities last year after the VLR raid (it was being looked after by Vic)

The ATCC Altezza is a different chassis design to the Lexus IS200 race car with SE uses, but to the lay-man, its a Lexus IS

nope. As I understand it. the SE cars were built by themselves. I suspect someone in Asia built the ATCC cars

Does anyone know what Seat have done with last seasons Toledo's?? I would have thought that someone would have bought one to run privately.
Seems a waste if they are now going to be sitting at the back of the factory!! |

the link below has all the officially confirmed drivers, i chosen to remove the 'likely' ones as that tends to be quite subjective

PS Status' refer to entry, not the drivers. The drivers are my best guess at who will drive the cars where no drivers have been annouced.

Is Gavin Smith definitely confirmed at VXR? It'll be a hell of a year if 75% of that list is confirmed let all 100%

Its not been categorically stated that he is the third driver. But various sources have claimed he signed the contract last week.

Aside from maybe Xero, just about everything below James Kaye and a few above him as well. Ay best one or two might make the odd guest appearance later in the year but most will never be heard of again.
It's a question of how possible is possible. It's possible I might win the EuroMillions lottery tonight and enter a car myself. Maybe you should add my name to the list as well. |

On the scale I've used though, possible ranges from about 1%-50%. They're classed as possible as there has been at least one media report about their entry.

I may have missed them but I don't recall seeing any real media reports about a lot of these possibles. I hope you are not including every internet rumour. Actually all you are doing is helping to start/spread more rumours. Neil's latest list is a lot more realistic. |
