Scenario;

Alan Gow has decided to retire from his TOCA role.
You have been given the honour of being his successor.

What changes would you implement... both short & long term.

Fitst of all, so get the thread rolling, what changes would you implement?
For starters.

For the BTCC, I would use the Legends form of qualifying.
A FA Cup style draw... Driver v Grid position.
Televised live on ITV4.

Totally random, so a bad race one won't impact on race two.
Race three grid, based on the points haul from the previous two races.
The Teams would know on the Saturday afternoon their hybrid allocation for the first two races.

The cars... Must be a production based shell.

Definitely a junior series... TBA
No F4... tin tops only.
Retain a mix of support series though... for a bit of variety.

thumbup Some great ideas & discussions...

Re the junior series...
I was thinking about using restricted Radicals for the Juniors.
They would be a good move up from Karting & a half way house between a saloon or GT career.

Legends style format would be used... so that they can all enjoy the full reverse grid experience.

The elephant in the room is the SUV. I would hazard a guess that a large portion of spectators arrive in them at the circuits. We either accept the Ford Kuga type bodystyle with what we have with the NGTC or we go smaller cars. A grid of Fabia, Yaris, Mini, Polo etc sized stuff like the WRC did. Well let's be honest the modern supermini isn't that small anymore.
We can't go down that route... The BSUVC sounds awful.
