BTCC Series Director Alan Gow said that the decision was takeꦇn after detailed analysis of performance of both ETCC ℱand BTCC-spec cars running in Britain.
"In the be꧑st interests of the BTCC, the two types of cars should boast equal performance," Gow commented. "That is essential in generating more ofꩵ the exceptionally close racing we have witnessed so far this season.
"In the last three ETCC meetings, SEAT's Toledo has 💧proved it is now on a par with the best out there from established leaders Alfa Romeo and BMW.
"It should therefore be equal in performance to the best of the BTCC-spec cars, such as the Vauxhall Astras and Honda Civics🌱. I believe a 25kg weight reduction will achieve this equality."
