Hello,

Yeah ITV 4 runs all day so includes all the BTCC x3, Clio cup x2 Carrera cup x2, Gianettas juniors + pros, Formula Renault sometimes Mini cup and classic touring cars. Normally 7 hours worth of racing :) The Gianettas have Ford motors in them limited to 100 bhp but weigh nothing I belive.

The ginettas are a custom built sports car - kitcar if you will. 

 

Really have come along way since their early days :)

I enjoy watching them. Really like how spartan they are. The minimalism appeals.

Have an ambition to one day find the time to buy a cheap sports car and strip it back as far as I can. Remove every bit of unecessary crap etc. Hate all that flufiness

There is a Kiwi outfit that stripped an MRS, actually gutted it and then some, replaced most panels with GRP, and then stuck a Hayabusa in it. Some great vids of it. Nuts.
