The New Look Richard Fricker Motorsport Team
8th March 2010
The new look Richard Fricker Motorsport team and its 2010 championship winning sports car in new war paint turned its first lap in anger at Eastern Creek on Saturday.
The crew, headed up by Tony Macinantie [Mac] has worked day and night to have the car in race trim and it showed Fricker punching out a 1.32 on old tyres.
Fricker says, "the different set up works very well. I just have to adjust my driving to suit the car since it's been softened up to handle the bumpy Adelaide street circuit. Mac also played with wing settings and we can run less wing which gives us more top speed for the notorious turn 8 which is one of the fastest corners in the country. With no run off, our cars could possibly be quicker than the V8 SUPERCARS! The Radical SR3 car has been stripped, repainted, has new livery and suspension components. The car feels like new! I can't wait for Adelaide."
Richard and his team will be joining the Andrew McPherson Motorsport team, they run the West Race Car in the same category and the Mighty Mosler sportscar in the GT SERIES.
This is the first time the Sports Racers have joined the V8 SUPERCARS at CLIPSAL 500 racing in front of a crowd of over 300,000 people. It will be unbelievable...like the slogan says BRING IT ON!!!
