2022 BTCC Season Opener – Donington Park

Over the weekend of April 23-24 we were at Donington Park for the first round of the 2022 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship campaign with Aiden Moffat and Dexter Paterson keen to get to grips with the new technology. For 2022 we see a whole new hybrid powertrain with new engine suppliers M-Sport teaming up with world-renowned Cosworth who are providing the hybrid systems. That was the plan anyway. The two LTR cars got very little pre-season testing under their belts as we are the only team to run the new M-Sport engine in rear-wheel-drive. Teams running the engine...

Close, exciting racing netted an impressive points haul for Laser Tools Racing at a sunny Silverstone!

The first practice session on the Saturday morning was conducted on a misty and grey circuit, but the driving from the Laser Tools Racing drivers was consistent with Aiden 3rd fastest and Ash in 4th. The weather had cleared by the second practice session when Aiden’s car started to experience brake problems. Luckily these were resolved by the afternoon’s all-important qualifying session. This session was of the “Top Ten Shoot-out” format where the top ten drivers from a shortened 20-minute qualifying session are given an addition 10-minute session to decide the grid positions for Race 1 on the Sunday. Aiden...

Successful sortie for Laser Tools Racing at Thruxton

Another successful sortie for Laser Tools Racing at Thruxton in Hampshire over the weekend. Our driver Ash Sutton maintains his lead of the Driver’s Championship with a healthy 30-point lead over main rival Tom Ingram. On Saturday morning the FP1 first practice session had started well but the session was stopped after another red flag. Ash had managed at this stage to put in some fast laps but LTR drivers Aiden Moffat and Carl Boardley had only just started when the session was stopped. FP2 was much better though, the engineers getting lots of data to set the cars up...

Cody Eustice competes in the British 24hr Challenge at Teesside International Circuit.

Earlier this month, Laser Tools Racing driver, Cody Eustice took part in a 24hr endurance race around the 2.1km Teesside International Circuit together with Modernised Racing and Haase Uk ProKarts. Here, in his own words, Cody takes us through how he got on: "Sooo last weekend was the most eventful weekend I’ve experienced, with the most amazing people ever! I’ve never been to the track before, so Friday was my only chance to get a proper test. With mixed conditions throughout the day I didn't get to drive the track properly dry, but was left feeling confident about going into...

Another successful meeting for the Laser Tools Racing team with another amazing win for Ash Sutton!

This weekend saw the annual trip north of the border to Aiden Moffat’s home track, Knockhill Racing Circuit in Scotland. A favourite among fans and drivers alike the circuit is a brilliant challenge and is one of the few circuits to have steep downhill sections, power sapping uphill sections, crests that leave the cars on two wheels and an incredibly tight uphill right hand hairpin. Each lap is quite short, but totally action-packed. This will be the 29th year of BTCC action here since its first visit in 1992! The first Free Practice session was held in very wet, misty,...
