New US Touring Car Championship

[Total Racing]

Anybody notice that the new USTCC debuted in Phoenix this past weekend? Not much coverage at all except on motorsport.com. And they just gave the results with a short race summary.

Anybody know where I can get the full 2000 schedule for the USTCC?

Suprisingly, the address is easy to guess. It's www.ustcc.com

It's basically just another Motorola cup series level event, even more stock than alaready stock Motorola Cup supposedly.

It's kinda funny. They have released a list of homologated cars. I find it odd that a S80 can be raced on the same track as a tiny little Civic h/b. I can't imagine that happening any time soon.

The interesting thing is that the ex-NATCC Mirko Racing Accord is supposedly entered. Also an Accord Wagon took the chequered flag for the first innagural race!

S80s Vs Civics....sounds a bit like the ASTC this year....i can't wait until the official Goggo mobile factory team makes anb entry...

Yeah, I was scratching my head when I read the homologation list myself. I don't know where in the world did the organizers get the idea of including a S80 in the lineup? If a S80 can race, why not a Ford Crown Victoria? Or how about a MB 300E? Go figure...
