Total censorship! If that is not trying to silence people to talk about the BTCC then I don't know what is? The website is so far behind the times, it doesn't even have a RSS link to it's stories, so people are going to read them on Crash.net and other sites beforehand! The forum is dominated by kids that haven't got a clue. No other official Race Championship website stops people talking about the drivers and teams the way they do. AND ironically, the moderator goes onto other forums and places links to stories on his site! Which he doesn't allow on his! Something else they don't seem to grasp, banning people from that site will only send them to other sites, which then become more interesting to go to! BIG BROTHER at work! Total censorship!

I was banned off btcc.net last year, as I stated Rick Kerry would not be racing in 2008 season. I had been informed by a member of his team/staff in Ipswich. Did he race ? No ! How can I be banned for stating what I believed to be true, it wasnt a lie, it wanst offensive, and it was totally related to the forum ! I cant even register in a different name now. Pathetic.

I can't bear sites like that. The owners of these websites should let people discuss what they want to within reason and help newbies out. Newbies usually can't find what they're looking for cos the search function is pants anyway. Grrrrrr Totally agree, it makes you sick. I can’t bear sites like that.
