Spin2Win Racing will be back in the Castrol Canadian Touring Car Championship presented by Toyo Tires for the 2008 season. Owner/Driver Rob McAuley announced today that he will be campaigning his BMW E36 3-series coupe. Codriver Dave Ciekiewicz will be returning to share the driving duties, and Techmax is back on board for technical support.
McAuley/Ciekiewicz participated in the 2007 CCTCC series where they were running in third place in the GT class after podium finishes at Mosport and The Steelback Gran Prix of Toronto. However, a shunt during practice at the Calabogie Motorsport Park terminated their season prematurely.
Said McAuley, "The crash looked worse than it was. We were able to move the go-fast parts from last year's chassis to a new lighter shell, so the new car should run even better than we had been." He continued, "With the elimination of the GT class, Techmax has had to build a Frankenstein power-plant, melding parts from our well tuned M3 engine with a 2.8L block." The Spin2Win BMW will be running in the ultracompetitive Super Touring class.
Cieciewicz added, "Rob and the Techmax team are building a great car, and we've got a great race support crew again this year. I'm looking forward to some close racing and more podium finishes."
Team co-owner Sue McAuley donated Spin2Win Racing Canadian Touring Car Championship weekend VIP packages to the Bank of Montreal Charity Auction, raising hundreds of dollars. Ms. McAuley exclaimed, "We had 3 people frantically bidding on these packages. We'll be bringing some real race fans to the track to be part of the excitement!" Watch for our special guests visiting the paddock at various events through the season!
