Brimtek to enter World Challenge with a Golf GTI

Virginia based Brimtek Motorsports will race in the World Challenge touring car class this season with a Volkswagen Golf GTI.

“Brimtek is committed to the entire season and all of the races on the calendar,” said Team Principal David Tilton.

“Our team is composed of a very competitive and talented battery of individuals. We have worked unremittingly over these past few years to advance from club racers to a credible professional organization. Now we are ready to pit our proficiency, competitiveness and commitment against the best World Challenge has to offer.”

Tristan Herbert will drive for the team in it’s first season in the World Challenge series, stepping up from the ranks of SCCA club racing.

“The opportunity to drive professionally is of course incredible, but the most important aspect for me is the competitive DNA that embodies the Brimtek team.” said Herbert.

“They are a ‘play for keeps, never quit organization’ and that suits me perfectly. I feel confident that our commitment to each other and our race craft will catch a few of the existing World Challenge teams off guard this season.”
