Sportchip at Rallycross Round 4

 

Another Rallycorss Round took a place at Mondello Park Sunday the 5th of February. Together with John Kelly we got the second place in supercar class. Through all the races we could enjoy watching Johns Mitsubishi EVO 7 chasing Citroen Xara. Track was wet that day so it has looked better when the cars went sideways. John has drove really good and his Mitsubishi is really fast car. Superfinal was the greatest to watch, John Kelly in his Mitsubshi has finish the race at second position. Thanks to all Sportchip Team for such a wonderful job that day. We have placed few pictures from Round 4 on our facebook profile.

Irish Drag Racing Championship 17 July Enniskillen

 

Yesterday, Sunday 17 of July, SportChip Team went to support Jacek Rocol and his Skyline GTR at Irish Drag Racing Championship in Enniskillen. Upon our arrival, the racing had already started. However it was immediately apparent that the atrocious weather was having a severe effect on the racing. There was much wheel spin off the line and the spray from the cars even made spectating difficult. It was Jacek first time in Skyline GTR in drag racing so he had to run it few times on that day to get used to this 700BHP. Even that it was so wet he made third best time in general 11.68 seconds and won his class which is a great result. Photographs from the event are availbale at our gallry and on facebook Sportchip website.

Sportchip Team at ITCC round 9 & 10

 

Last Sunday next two rounds of ITCC 9 & 10 took a place at Mondello Park in which three drivers represented Sportchip Team. Gareth Hayden in Super Touring class and Rob Savage and John Kelly in Touring class. Gareth's Honda has received few aerodynamic improvements which helped to get third place in Classifications and necessary data for setting the car before the race. However, our guys in Touring class qualifed for the race on excellent positions Rob 2nd and John 3rd. Round 9 had very dramatic course for our team, on the third lap John Kelly Peugoet had a small technical failure and he had to withdraw. On the same lap Gareth trying to learn new car setup made a mistake and lost his third position in Super Touring class. Troubles got also Rob which on the last corner was hit by Eric Carroll (honda integra) and lost an excellent second position. Round 9 results: Super Touring class Gareth Hayden - 6 Touring Class Rob Savage - 3 Touring Class John Kelly - DNF. During the break before round 10 team removed all the faults, improved setup and was determined to race strategy. At round 10 Gareth was leading in the first two laps and then had to let go Martin Tracey in twices powered Ford RS500 / 2000cc, but finished the race on the best 2nd place this season in Super Touring class. In Touring class it was a lot harder for both of our drivers. Rob has started from 8th grid and John from 10th grid but didn't stop them from getting great results at the end, Rob has finished 2nd and John 5th. Rounds 9 and 10 are behind us and once more we showed we are serious strenght in ITCC. We would like to thanks all fans who has visited us at the paddock. Many thanks to all Team, as usual they have done a great job.

We can turn off DPF / FAP filters

 

We specialize in removal of depollution system faults especially in Peugeot and Citroen cars. This problem occurs more often in these days. Diesel Particulate Filters often are blocking up, then the check engine light turn on as well as drop in the power and excessive smoke. That is not a problem anymore, we are changing the engine software in order to turn off the DPF / FAP filter, then that filter can be removed mechanically. Removal of DPF will give you more power and better MPG! New updated list of cars we do for DPF / FAP is below:
