    This was released a few days ago and I keep forgetting to post up about it.

    For those who are fans of the BTCC, 2010 Champion Jason Plato has teamed up with MG who are themselves jumping back into the BTCC with a completely new car.

    Details on The Sun's web site.

    Yeah, unfortunately, Chevrolet have decided to pull out of the BTCC this year - so one manufacturer in, one out. Not sure if it's because of Plato's decision to go with MG or not. Sounds like MG handed Plato a cracking deal for 3 years. Maybe Chevrolet couldn't come up with the goods for this year. No NGT engine for one thing.
