Honda Civic NGTC debuts
Honda Racing has revealed its challenger for the 2012 British Touring Car Championship. Built to Next Generation Touring Car (NGTC) spec, the new Civic made its public debut at a Brands Hatch test session.
Lead driver (and current BTCC Drivers’ Champion) Matt Neal was in a positive mood, saying, “It will be interesting to see how the car performs, but I’m optimistic that we’ll walk away from today confident we have a championship winning car.”
His team-mate, Gordon Shedden, added, “The feedback on the new Civic NGTC car so far is incredibly promising and I’ve been itching to get into the car since the end of the 2011 season.”
Another test is planned at Donington Park on the 23rd of February, ahead of the championship’s opening round at Brands Hatch on the 1st of April.
