From the first person

"The race which has passed in Portugal became for our command the next step forward. All problems with homologation have been solved, and we have scored the first points in offset Yokohama Independent Trophy. Besides, progress in speed which we have reached for this time is obvious. Now we practically have completely understood with suspension bracket options though still small reserves are and here. The following stage of perfection of the car - the engine.

After the nearest race in English Brands Hatch at us the extensive program together with company Swindon which prepared our motors is planned. Now obviously, about what some our contenders said to us even, that the basic loss occurs in the end on long straight lines while in turns we LADA 1106 go at level of cars of other marks (BMW, Seat, Chevrolet and Honda).

As to races of the sixth stage of the World championship for us with van Lagen they have passed not bad, except for incident in the first arrival. Turkish racer Ibragim Okajaj has beaten out my car from a line, having damaged a suspension bracket, and to my partner on command too has got from this pilot. Thank god Yap reaches finish and scored points. In any case of an abacus to our points it is opened, hope we will continue in the same way and on the following race in the Great Britain. "
