Erdos is well known within the field of GT racing, but also has experience of single seaters, having been Formula Renault champion. In GTs, he has driven For Marcos and a privateer Viper outfit. He will certainly bring experience to the BTCC, and the Lexus team now looks to be in very good shape - although the relative performance of the rear-wheel drive IS200 remains unknown.
