DRIVE AVAILABLE – SPA 24 HOURS - in Petronas-Barwell Racing Aston Martin DBRS9

Wednesday, May 11, 2011



This year Barwell Motorsport will be returning to the great Spa 24 Hours event, which is part of the new Blancpain Endurance Series, with its Petronas-Barwell Racing Aston Martin DBRS9 GT3 entry.

This year for the first time ever, GT3 is the top class in the race and the fully-upgraded 2011-spec Barwell Aston has a very strong opportunity to claim outright victory. In 2009 we were running 2nd in the GT3 class before a small accident cost us time in the pits for repairs, but we still claimed 4th place and the car ran absolutely faultlessly. The fast Spa track is ideally suited to the powerful, high-downforce Aston, and with Barwell’s experience of running the car regularly at the track in the Belgian GT Championship we will have the upper hand over our rivals.

This year we have an incredibly strong driver line-up already in place, with three top professional GT drivers including former Le Mans GT2 winner Tom Kimber-Smith, and Belgian stars, Jeffrey Van Hooydonk and former Belgian GT Champion Tim Verbergt.

There is one seat still remaining for this very high-quality entry, and all interested parties with suitable funding available should contact Chris Needell at Barwell Motorsport on 01372 457788 / 07860 633971 / chris@barwellmotorsport.co.uk.
