Tour Britannia Winners 2012
A fantastic victory for Tech 9 at this year’s Tour Britannia event.
Phil Hindley and co-driver Andy Bull proved a winning formula with the
beautiful and unique 1979 Porsche 911 SC-R, storming to victory in the
event held in the North of England.
As competitors on the 2012
Tour Britannia faced two long days of challenging weather conditions,
Phil Hindley and Andy Bull built a healthy margin during the special
stages and race event at Croft during day one, then maintained the
advantage that they had established on the opening day to claim overall
victory in their Porsche 911SC-R
As a showcase to the engineering
skills of the Tech 9 team, the SCR was conceived and built during the
past 12 months, and only completed on the eve of the event. Tech 9 saw
their car complete fantastic times at the UK’s most exclusive rally tour
event, featuring 20 special stage events including two races at Croft
& Cadwell Park.
With its superb Ohlins suspension, built to
FIA Appendix K. specification the incredible 911 SC-R took to the stage
in its debut outing and claimed the overall honours
With its
distinctive ‘Sport Classic Grey’ paint finish and FUCHS alloys, plus
many lightweight parts the SC-R was equally composed on a rally stage or
the circuit
A comprehensive build with attention to detail enjoys a final rally specification weight of less than 1000KG.
