Courtenay Sport Latest News and Information |

Race Report :::
|
Snetterton May 8th and 9th ...... |
| On a cloudy day and in damp track conditions, Adrian placed our car on Pole for the first race at Snetterton, despite carrying maximum ballast of 45kgs..... He was 0.7 seconds ahead of the next car, the Courtenay Sport mapped car of Ryan Bensley. Race One :: :: Saturday afternoon brought rain and a wet circuit and carrying the maximum ballast of 45kgs, Adrian led the race from pole position and went on to win by nearly 5.5 seconds over nearest rival Stuart Clarke in another Astra VXR, who was ballast free for this, his first race of 2010. Adrian also achieved the fastest lap for Class A of 1:31.723, which contributes another point in the championship. 3rd place went to Alex Ashby (Astra VXR) and 4th to Ryan Bensley in his Astra VXR, also mapped by Courtenay Sport. In Class B congratulations must go to Kevin George who took his first class B win in his Corsa 1.6 Turbo. Race Two :: :: Sunday morning brought brighter conditions than the previous day and a damp track, with uncertain conditions. Off the line second place man Stuart Clarke got alongside Adrian Churchill and led into the first corner for the first lap. On lap 1 off the fast sweeping right hander at Coram, uncertain grip levels and a hard charging Churchill had the back end away and Adrian had an excursion across the grass at Russell. Rejoining still in second place an intermittent ABS issue then sadly spat the car off into the tyre wall at Riches Corner at the end of the fast start finish straight, due to a lock up. Our race was over. A close race ensued with a fast charging Bensley getting past Alex Ashby by lap 6 and he then set about closing down Stuart Clarke and as lap times were traded Clarke managed to hold on to take the race win, by just 0.257 seconds from Bensley's Courtenay Sport mapped Astra VXR. Ryan Bensley also achieved fastest lap for the race. With the car recovered back in, the damage was assessed as there was a little over 3 hours to work on the car until race 3. It was mainly cosmetic to the N/S/F wing, the bonnet and the bumper. The bumper was immediately worked on and was put back together to look more bumper-like, having been returned with the car, folded in 2 pieces! The wing and bonnet were straightened out and the radiator and intercooler were replaced. Race Three :: :: With the car back put together it was passed fit to start the final race. The ballast had been removed but the lack of placing meant that Adrian was starting from the back row of the grid and had some ground to make up. A now sunny and dry Snetterton saw Adrian make a fantastic start and by Coram he had made it into 4th place and was in touch with the lead group. The intermittent issue with the ABS occurred again on lap 2 which meant that Adrian's braking was uncertain and locking up would almost certainly see another off, something which Adrian did not want to risk as championship points were paramount. Adrian managed to find a way past Clarke on lap 5 to take 3rd spot and then set about the lead pair. Uncertainty with the braking distances saw Adrian challenge Bensley on several occasions but he was unable to find a way past. Bensley too had a challenge for the lead with Ashby but was unsuccessful. Frustratingly for Churchill, he was unable to find a way past Bensley and so settled for a hard fought 3rd place. The times for Race 3 show how fast the car is. Adrian again took fastest lap for the race - 1:19.407 which was 0.7 seconds faster than second pace Bensley and a second faster than the winning car of Ashby. A massive thank you to everyone involved over the weekend. A great effort from the whole team. |

Race Report :::

Rockingham ...... |
| Congratulations to Adrian who has placed our car on Pole for the first race at Rockingham..... nearly 2 seconds ahead of the next car. Race One :: :: Adrian led from start to finish, winning the race and achieving fastest lap for Class A. Race Two :: :: Again started on Pole, but now carrying maximum ballast of 45kg. Adrian led from the front and again took the chequered flag for his second win of the weekend and again took fastest lap in Class A. A slight puff of something was visible from the driver's side front wheel towards the end of the race which would requirer further investigation. Between Race Two and Race Three, which had been brought forward by 30 minutes ssaw the pit crew somewhat busy. Upon further investigation it had transpired that a driver's side CV boot had split towards the end of Race 2. Adrian alse reported that the brakes didn't feel quite as sharp as they could be, so a quick change of both driveshafts as a precaution, a new set of pads for the massive AP calipers and a system bleed and the car was good to go again in time for the earlier start time of race Three. Race Three :: :: The reverse grid system mean that due to number 4 coming out of the 'hat', we were to start from 4th position on the grid, still carrying maximum ballast. A strong start saw one of the Nissan 370's ahead of Adrian take the lead from pole starter Ashby, whilst Adrian went around the outside and slotted into 2nd place as the cars headed off the banking and into the infield circuit. Within half a lap Adrian had managed to grab first place and then started to stretch out a lead, although Lorenzini in the Nissan 370Z pressed hard all race long, but Adrian managned to run from the front to the finish line clinching his third win and third fastest lap in Class A. The battle behind focusing around 3rd, 4th and 5th was hard fought all race long between Ashby (Vauxhall Astra VXR) who held 3rd for most of the race, Bensley (Vauxhall Astra VXR) and Tresson (Nissan 370Z) resulting in Tresson pipping Bensley followed by Ashby. Congratulations to everyone involved, a big thank you to the pit crew for doing a great job and a huge well done to Adrian for 3 wins out of 3, 3 fastest laps and for bagging a maximum 39 points making a great start to the season. |

The best thing to happen to Vauxhall 1.6 Turbo engines! |
| With 50 years of world class engine design and manufacturing experience, Cosworth's intimate knowledge of the interaction between the piston and other engine components gives them the distinct advantage in piston design resulting in the finest pistons available. The piston is one of the most important components within the engine. It can be subjected to directional change up to 285 times every second and must withstand acceleration forces of 8500 G's. Cosworth high performance forged pistons are designed and engineered to withstand this type of punishment and still perform. All Cosworth pistons are manufactured using the same methods as their Formula One pistons and include features such as anti-scuff skirt coating, ultra strong pins, polished top and patented anti-detonation bands. Additionally, each application uses a unique forging to minimize weight and ensure the strongest possible piston. |
