Just been announced that Britcar boss James Tucker will run a six race series for 448bhp 6.2 ltre Vauxhall VXR Maloo utes next year in the UK. Race format and spec will be on a par with the Oz series, and the utes will be rented out to teams and drivers for a season long price of £32,000 including all entry fees. He has consulted with Holden and Tom Walkinshaw, and said that he had studied internet viewing figures for various international categories and decided that Aussie V8s and Utes are 'the second biggest championships in the world as followed by everybody'.

Lets hope that this could see an exchange of drivers soon, such as Handlebars and Jack Elsegood!

Hi!, to all race and car lovers out there, have you heard the news about Pontiac. After the end of the brand was announced this past year, Pontiac has officially ceased to exist. Pontiac was scheduled being cut after General Motors had to get rid of its non performing brands. I found this here: Pontiac has officially ceased to exist Other casualties integrated Hummer and Saturn, among others. The brand was released before the Good Depression. Pontiac was previously the near epitome of muscle vehicles. The performance driven automobiles the business made were also offered for reasonable prices.

The relevance to Utes is..........

James Tucker has delayed this to 2012 due to problems with Holden supplying enough utes this year.
