The guy said,
"(I must confess that the races I saw were a bit boring, but I defer to the experts!)."

I've seen some JGTC races before and it is no where near as boring as Nascar.... I dunno, it's just my opinion.

not as boring as nascar, but no where as exciting as touring cars

I watched the 2000 JGTC season review and 1994 BTCC season review back to back. All I have to say is BTCC is so much more fun to watch. I love to watch Skyline GTR34s as much as the next guy but those BTCC drivers are pure nuts.

How about BTCC drivers in JGTC cars (and umbrella girls) with NASCAR level publicity? The best racing in the world, and we could call it BTCCJGTCNASCAR.

its kinda hard to be as excited about the races when you cant understand the replay commentator. i cant see it live, so i watch the replay videos they publish, they show some of the better passes and i get a lot of kicks out of that. but i imagine it would be much more exciting if the race was live commentating instead of a replay commentating, and I COULD ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND them...

i actually find the highlight show more exciting, since they compiled all of the best shots in the show. since jgtc is a endurance, it's still somewhat boring. IMO

That's good news to me. I had a feeling that this will eventually come and be aired here in the US. Can't wait to see the GT300 cars goes into action action.
