AE Announces its Involvement in the 2010 Redline Time Attack Season
Both of us representing common partner Hankook Tire, AE Performance and I have entered a new hard-charging team collaboration for the 2010 season of Redline Time Attack with the main target to go for podium positions with full force. Alongside AE Performance's Redline franchise 'factory' cars and drivers; Paul Dentice in 370Z, Rich Taylor in BMW E92 330 and Paul Walker in BMW E92 M3, AE Performance will also back me in the Porsche with everything from cruical prep work and track support to racewinning tuning parts, in the same way an AE Performance customer car can be tuned, prepped and supported. This collaboration is the perfect example of a 1+1=3 team effort which will enable me to place true focus on driving, datalogging, car setups and producing results while we at the same time will be able to display AE Performance's overall capacity with racing success even greater than in 2009, thereby further enhancing the benefit for everyday customers.
With this I can also officially announce that City Tire - now a Hankook Motorsports Program vendor! - and I have made the decision to keep our focus on Redline Time Attack and other possible racing venues this year, and pass on 2010 Formula D. We are working on a plan to bring the City Tire Formula D Nissan 350Z TT to one or two demo events during 2010 though besides development / testing / practice.
Stay tuned during the last 14 days of AE Performance's preparation for the Redline Time Attack season premiere at Buttonwillow, on this blog and on AE Performance's blog!Labels: AE Performance, City Tire Online, Drifting, Hankook, Media, Misc, Racecar setup, Racing, Redline Time Attack |
