The Red Victor 1 Racing Team are proud to announce a very exciting new partnership with the world renowned turbo company Owen Developments for 2012.

Andy Frost, team principal of RV1 racing says, "This is a wonderful opportunity for the team. Owen Developments are one of the world's leading turbo development companies and as such, can bring us into a whole new world of turbo tuning and development with the RV1 twin turbo Garrett set up. With Owen’s extensive range of turbos, aftermarket billet compressor wheel technology and their in-depth knowledge of boosted applications, this is a fantastic opportunity to get the very latest turbo data and utilise it on the car. In return we hope to furnish Owen Developments with plenty of real world data for them to digest and use for their future reference."

Unfortunately the car wasn't ready for Autosport international at the NEC for this year, but that didn't stop me visiting to see our current sponsors/partners and to meet potential new ones.
Look for some very good news after the weekend about new and existing ones, and to say goodbye to a couple of old ones....

It's not very often that anyone gets to meet a genuine automotive legend, but today at Autosport i did.
Anyone who is 30 or over will be aware of the name David Vizard. Countless tech books about building and tuning engines and years of dyno experience make him someone really who knows his stuff! He's also a very affable fellow too...
So,on that note if you want to learn something about the man and his years of experience, pop along to his seminar that is being held in Swansea on Sept 7th/9th.
Just visit here http://www.davidvizardseminars.com/ to register your interest.
You won't be disappointed....

It's that time of year again, and now the snow has started to fall (on the site if you noticed) it's time once again to wish all of our fans, friends, customers, supporters and sponsors a very merry xmas and a prosperous 2012. Of course anyone who doesn't celebrate xmas and is one of our fans, Happy holidays to you........
Hopefully we will see some of you trackside next year,when we get that record we've worked hard for in 2011, but just ran out of time..
