    The RML Chevrolet team has decided not to enter the BTCC in 2012 in order to focus on it’s WTCC efforts.

    Did the move to NGTC regs have anything to do with this? Possibly. RML entered to the BTCC with the previous season’s WTCC cars so the team was cheap to run but from now on the two series will run to completely different regs so the chassis and engine can no longer be ‘recycled’.#

    The fact they also lost their lead driver to another team and his personal sponsorship may have been a hit, however this may not be true. What is true though is that the BTCC has gained one works team and lost two in the last few months which is going to leave Alan Gow with some work to do.
