J.A.S. MOTORSPORT IS DEVELOPING CIVIC FOR CUSTOMERS IN TCR

TC Racer International Series

Continuing its long tradition of providing competitive Honda products for “Grass Roots” Racing activities, and in the context of the new born TCR technical regulations for national championships and international series, J.A.S. Motorsport will design, construct and develop the Civic for TCR in partnership with Mugen for the engine development and build.

“The price cap and the technical regulations for the new TCR class match perfectly the needs of the touring car market and it enables us to extend our offer to Honda customers around the world,” says Alessandro Mariani, Managing Director of J.A.S. Motorsport. “The price of the base car and the affordable running costs will allow many drivers and teams to participate in numerous national and regional championships while the TCR International Series will be a worldwide showcase for more ambitious outfits.”

For the TC Racer International Series, J.A.S. Motorsport will supply three cars to the West Coast Racing from Sweden, another respected name in touring cars.

 “Our existing customers in Touring Cars have been asking for a new racing car for some time,” says Mads Fischer, Business Development and Customer Service Manager for J.A.S. “Since the announcement by West Coast Racing there has been a lot of interest in our TCR project especially from our customers in Asia.”
