Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

It featured many changes – Tiger Express Events took over the organisation after iCON Racing’s collapse, and a 2 divisions system.  If Renesis dominated the first season with Joachim Souaï and Damien Jourdainne, the second season would be overpowered by the Irish Foireann Na hÉireann team(litterally Team Ireland in Gaelic) composed of Ministery of Speed’s manager Andy O’Brien and Niall Murray, the brother of the real life Seat Eurocup driver, Eoin. Both drivers took 1st and 2nd in both divisions.

xRG Endurance 2010: Race Report

Monday, June 14th, 2010

After a long endurance race-less period, CoRe Racing’s xRG Endurance 2010 came as a good occasion to get back into business for the Tigers. The race was 3 hours long, and was held at Aston North, with the eponym car. The organisators managed to get a pretty much interresting field, and Tiger Express was the only team, with ineX, Conquest and Epic Racing to fill 2 cars. The White Tiger Express team was composed of Domi and Yann, while Timo Höfer and Mike would fill the Tiger Express one. Nevertheless, Mike’s withdrawal 2 days before the event required a substitute. UKCT’s contriversial(for his LFS Forum activity) Dustin Dawes was chosen. The latter came back after a 2 years break from league racing!
