It’s been pretty quiet on the C&P Racing front the last few months. For a start a certain person, that shall remain nameless, pushed it a little to hard at Yas Marina in Abu Dhabi, resulting in a rather large meeting with the barrier on the exit of turn 3. In a perverse way it was actually a bit of a relief as the whole season was a bit of a mess after pushing the boundaries of development and suffering with an ill handling and unreliable motor. Not to mention a blown gearbox, a couple of CV joints and a rather pricey trick differential.

So, the up and coming season will be all about reconciliation and the addition of a whole new aero package care of AMD Milltek Racing in the UK. All being well we will be able to get a tune into the motor that I and the motor itself will be happy with. There is also a whole raft of safety regulations to take care of (Fuel Safety Cell) and all being well we will be running an incredible livery that should generate some interest.

Updates will be coming thick and fast over the next couple of months as we get ready for Race 1 at the Dubai Autodrome.
