Brands Hatch test day

As Louis is a novice driver he has not raced before however, fortunately he was able to enter into the final race meeting of the ongoing junior saloon car championship which would provide a low stakes race experience for him.

Louis and Gary tested the car over the course of a day. Over the short track the issues such as a low powered engine and worn out brakes didn't seem to impact the lap time dramatically so we decided to run with these issues and change them over the winter period.

The car handled the day with ease, this comforted us as we were not sure how it would last over the weekend race meeting but after simulations we were happy and looked forward to the race weekend.
