The pair have been trading fractions of seconds all year in what was the closest battle to date. Both Drivers finishing on 403 points out of a possible 405, Adrian retains the title by winning the first round back at Rockingham. Just goes to show you need to hit the ground running when the competition is this close :)

 Fensport GT4X, Round 3, Toyota Sprint Series 2011 

The Celica GT4 X has proved to be very reliable all year and is now in pure sprint specification, a smaller turbo housing nets 660bhp and as much torque as we can squeeze out of it. The new PPG Gearbox has proven very reliable and a joy to drive. The suspension has also been re worked with revised geometry and bodywork changes have helped to increase downforce.

Adrian says "We have only made small changes to the car this year, but it has made the world of difference, the GT4X is an absolute joy to drive, the smaller turbo housing has helped with early power delivery, the new PPG gearbox has transformed the car and the new suspension and aero additions keep the car very composed in the corners :) I'm very happy to win the series and have thoroughly enjoyed the fight with Jonny, the competition is so close and the smooth running of the events make it so enjoyable"

More good news for the Fensport team with Tim Cogman who put in a faultless performance to win 6 out of 6 rounds and take the win in class F Pro. Tim was co sharing the ex TRD Netz cup Yaris with owner Jane Newsome. The pair put on a good show throughout the year, surprising some of the more powerful machinery on the way.
