Rob Austin Racing completes first test of 2015

Rob Austin Racing has completed their two first test days of 2015 ahead of the British Touring Car Championship season start with drivers Rob Austin and Hunter Abbott.
“I was very happy with the two days, the team worked brilliantly and the cars ran faultlessly!” said Austin.

The team completed over 300 laps at Brands Hatch during the test days with the pair of updated Audi A4s.

”During the winter break we’ve developed some aesthetic changes which people will finally get to see on Media Day, but we have also re-engineered certain areas of the cars under the skin as well as restructuring our staffing and engineering team. Brands Hatch was our first chance to see it all come together,” said Austin.

The next run for the team will be the BTCC Media Day at Donington Park on March 24th.

“The two days at Brands Hatch were very productive. Rob and I tried very different things over the course of the two days to cover as many variables as possible in the time-frame we had. Next week at Donington we’ll take the best of what we found across both cars at Brands and start to converge them, working towards proving the new concept,” said Abbott.
