The long-serving Team Dynamics shall not be contesting the 2023 British Touring Car Championship.
This also means "Flash Gordon" Shedden won't be competing this year.

Interesting that TCR UK and the British Touring Car Championship are looking likely to have near-identical grid numbers this year.

Is that because BTCC numbers are declining and TCR UK are increasing or a combination of both. I dont follow the UK TC scene at all really. Got to draw the line somewhere, and it gets very little exposure or airplay here.

Probably a combination of the two. I don't follow TCR at all, regardless of what country it's in, just making an observation.Everso Biggyballies wrote: ↑1 year agoNononsensecapeesh wrote: ↑1 year ago Interesting that TCR UK and the British Touring Car Championship are looking likely to have near-identical grid numbers this year.
