Team Dynamics 2019 Season Guide

The Car
setting the car up, at the final round
of the BTCC 2018, Dan and Matt
finished 1st and second
respectively, so success ballast was
loaded on to the cars for race two
where they went out and did it
again. The weight basically puts a
passenger into the car but despite
this. the team proved
races are still very winable despite
the extra weight.

So how did the new car fair last
season? Well, not being an expert,
I can only give an opinion from my
own views and observations from
the season.
I think to expect success from the
word go in a brand new race car
was probably being a little
optimistic, however the gauntlet
was thrown down in qualifying at
Brands (Indy) when Dan physically
went around the track faster than
anyone else, ok it was taken from
him but he was still quickest.
Unfortunately, with the greasy
conditions, it was hard to get an
ideal set up. It wasn’t until round
three at Thruxton, until it all
dropped into place. The car was
ifnally allowed to open itself up in
decent conditions, the result? Matt
wins his first Race of the season.
The car continued to improve all the
way up to the half way point of the
season finally reaching the summer
break with Matt in 3rd and right in
with a shout for the championship.
Although the second half
started well with that
memorable win at the
Diamond Double,
Rockingham turned
into a bit of a
nightmare along
with Knockhill
with horrible
weather
conditions. The
car showed what it
was really
capable of in the
last two
rounds
setting up a
great platform
for 2019.
