Dynamics to run NGTC engines in '11
Team Dynamics has become the first frontrunning British Touring Car Championship squad to commit to running NGTC engines next year

The team, which has fielded the works Honda cars for title challengers Matt Neal and Gordon Shedden this season, will replace its normally-aspirated Super 2000 units with turbocharged powerplants prepared by long-time engine partner Neil Brown Engineering.
"We'll continue to run the same Civics as we have this year," team principal Steve Neal told this week's AUTOSPORT magazine. "But we'll switch to the NGTC engines because it looks like the way to go.
"They [NBE] have always done a great job with our engines since we started running Hondas [in 2004], so there's no reason to ask anyone else."
Neal Sr said that his squad, which has run the current-spec Civics since the start of the 2007 season, would not consider building a full NGTC-spec machine until 2012 at the earliest.
A decision from Honda on whether it will continue to provide factory support for the team - which ran Neal Jr to the 2005 and '06 championships - is not expected until after its annual UK conference in November.
