That series was the most important touring car series that years. After Nissan, Volvo, Renault retire in 2000, and Audi, Peugeot on the previous years, the series degraded.
But boy oh boy, that was the best racing I have seen in my life. I have almost all the races on tape.

Wasn't that racing the best around at the time. We used to get the highlights on TV and the racing was awesome. Door handle/mirror smashing stuff !!!!.
But as you said....there is no intrest any more....they need to get Nissan/Volvo etc back into it.
Maybe this World Touring car champs ? may get some more intrest next year. I hope so.
You cant beat tin top racing at it's best
