In a reecent Simbin Community Newsletter, the following was mentioned:

Simbin Community Newsletter said:
“We have secured licenses for a couple of highly requested series and we think our next scheduled title will come as a big happy surprise to all racers around the world.

The release which is scheduled for release 2009, should lock into the new GTR Evolution base the same way as STCC does, meaning rules, cars, tracks and features specific to this new series will instantly become available in GTR Evo and STCC if you also own those.”

Maybe I am being hopefull, but maybe TOAD is related to the wet weather associated with the BTCC?

Also, Alan Gow said a while ago that he would try to come to an agreement with some publisher to do a BTCC game having watched Codemasters do nothing with the license since 2002.

I don't think the name means anything, the engine for the 360 is called lizard and previous projects had similar codenames which were amphibians / reptiles I think

Other suggestions I've seen are, Australian V8 supercars (Codemasters have this license I think),
A1GP,
GP2,
IndyCar,
DTM

and some more... I reckon A1GP is quite likely.

edit: I just saw you're a trial member on the forum I'm taking these ideas from anyway ;)
