The Pirelli World Challenge

Autoguide today are recommending that I watch the Pirelli World Challenge racing series.

It has to be said, it looks very tempting.

Their Website is here.

It also looks a bit confusing with lots of different classes of car competing - a bit like the BTCC used to be.

And what's with this "world" business - it's only in America.  I know the World Series has an excuse because it was sponsored by The World newspaper but this seems to be sponsored by Cadillac - the coverage at least.

The lineup seems very impressive, especially the GT3 class:
They have Ferraris... 
...and McLarens... 
...and Lambos and Audis and non-European stuff too like Acuras and Caddies.
 
And, like the BTCC, and unlike F1, the coverage is free to watch.
 
So I decided to give it a go...
Bugger.
 
Never mind, BTCC starts this weekend too and it looks like another brilliant season with SEVEN champions competing.
