AMR fest at Silverstone this weekend
Saturday, June 11, 2016
For those lucky enough to be at Silverstone today there was a plethora of race cars from the Aston Martin stable with both entries for the fourth round of the British GT featuring the GT4 European Series plus todays supporting Aston Martin Owners Club meeting.
Amongst the twenty two starters within the AMOC's Intermarque race was a large number of Aston Martins including series stalwarts Vantage Racing with both Chris Kemp and Tom Black competing in their own Vantage GT4's, Robin Marriott (who started the BGT season with Stratton Motorsport with David Tinn) in his GT4 and Britcars Chris Murphy having swapped his GT4 for a DB9.
With the broad spread of cars listed this race should certainly be extremely competitive.
Over in the combined British GT and GT4 European Series paddock, tomorrows 3 hour we have the five regular full season AMR GT3 entries from Beechdean, TF Sport, PFL and Motorbase but also joined by Mike Brown's GT3 for this event only. Over in the GT4 class we again retain the full season BGT cars of SuperRacing, MacMillan, JWB and Beechdean bit they are joined for this weekend only by the Street Art and Academy Motorsport cars as part of the joint BGT/GT4 Euro meeting.
