After many hours preparing their outfit, British team owner/throttleman Richard Carr and driver Paul Sinclair of Honeyparty.com, now feel they are ready to face the competition when the 2008 P1 championship series opens in San Benedetto del Tronto, Italy on May 9-11. Before bringing their specially designed American Skater 399 to the UK earlier this year the team won the American Offshore Super Series Vee Extreme class World and National Championships. Hence their confidence is high.
Supporting the pair are Team Manager and second driver Mark Pascoe, who has many years experience managing race teams. Crew Chief, Trevor Leigh – who has worked with Tekne Lamborghini, Victory and Honda UK – and Assistant Mechanic Danny Armon also have a wealth of experience.
The team's engines are to be returned to Tommy Hofstetter's workshop in the United States for final tune-up before the start of the P1 World series.
