New Opel on the way

Opel Team Sweden are planning to build a completely new Opel Astra for the 2006 STCC season. The work will be done with Opel Performance Center in Germany.

Plans for this were made already before the last race of the 2005 season. Tommy Rustad will not be behind the steering wheel this season as he leaves for the European Rallycross Championship.

– The door is still open for a new driver and we hope to have the final bits ready in january, teamboss Jan Warnestad said to STCC.se
