Grade 8 Race Team

Well, it's been a while, almost a year since I raced competitively on TORA, but now that I have a little free time again, I can't wait to get stuck in, and the Junior TCC looks like being cracking fun.



Grade 8 Race Team will field a Toyota Aygo for ckBrenneke at the opening round at Tsukuba, with the hope being to expand to two or maybe three cars for the second race. The car is genuinely sponsored by Butlers Vehicle Solutions Ltd, who have been associated with motorsport...

Grade 8 Race Team has revealed the livery it will run for its single Honda CRZ in this year's TCC season.



The team will not make every race, but hopes to attend as many as time permits.

More soon.

Following a vastly reduced program in 2011, BrennGP has reformed as Grade 8 Race Team.

The team last ran as Mugen Motorsport in the 2010 TORA Touring Car Championship, during which it ran a trio of Honda Civic Si Coupes, maintaining a long-standing relationship with the manufacturer, having run at least one Civic in the series since the first season in 2008. When team-owner Scot 'ckBrenneke' Reid moved to GRP Motorsport's Kia Forte Koup for the 2011 season, BrennGP sold off its Civics and closed it's doors.

The end of 2011 saw TORA run the second season of the Abarth Trophy....

Mugen Motorsport returns for the 2010 TORA Touring Car Championship with a three car team, once again fielding AJzero, jenson09 and team owner ckBrenneke, and once again running the Honda Civic Si for the third year running.

BrennGP have taken a very late step into the Formula Le Mans series, running a Audi R8 LMS in the GTC class for team owner ckBrenneke.



The last minute deal was put together with the help of main sponsor, Preci-Spark, who are the leading manufacturer of components for the jet aircraft, gas turbine and other advanced- technology industries. Preci-Spark are no strangers to the world of motorsport, having sponsored the Godfrey twins and their Ascari KZ1 in the British GT series...

Honda, BrennGP and Mugen are planning a one-off Mugen Cup following the release of the Mugen Civic Type-R 3D.

This event will be held on a to-be-determined TORA Community Game Night, details of which will be revealed soon. The event will be open to all, with participants in a Mugen-tuned Honda, again technical details of which are to be released soon.

The Cup will consist of randomly mixed lobbies competing over three events, with the winner receiving the Mugen Cup and 1,500,000 in Forza credits.

Please RSVP to gauge interest in this event.

With Mugen Motorsport due to return this summer for the 2010 TORA Touring Cars, the team behind the entry, BrennGP, have today taken possession of the new Mugen Civic Type R. While the car is not elegible for any TORA-sanctioned championships, the team were given the limited edition car as a thank you from Honda.

Team owner ckBrenneke has said he plans to uprate some of the components of the car, and enter it into some club races. Keep an eye on our blog as we develop the...

BrennGP will be running an ex-Prodrive Subaru Impreza as part of a works-sponsored entry into this year's TORA Rally Championship. The Impreza was purchased outright by ckBrenneke's team with the intent of running him in as many of the TRC events as are permitted by his busy working schedule. This news follows the last report from the team, which saw their Historic Rally entry canned.



"The HRC just didn't offer the experience and playing field I was expecting,"...

BrennGP driver and owner ckBrenneke has today announced that his team will enter the TORA Historic Rally Championship in the new year. With a BrennGP prepared Fiat 131 Abarth, he intends to challenge each round where funds and time permit.

"The car will carry a very similar livery to that run by Markku Alen in the late seventies," ckBrenneke told us. "When I was young, my grandfather used to take me to classic car rallies and I had a toy car carrying that livery, so it is a great priviledge to be able to drive the same kind of car with the same kind of livery some 30...

Following from an exciting 2009 Touring Car Championship campaign, Mugen Motorsport is delighted to announce it will be returning for the 2010 TCC with a three driver team, with three BrennGP prepared Hondas.

As Team Halfords and latterly Mugen Motorsport, we have the honour of being the longest serving touring car team on the grid, having had a presence at every meeting of the TCC since the inaugural meeting at the Maple Valley short track back in 2008. We intend to keep this record up in 2010, and hope that with a strong driver line-up, to be announced shortly, we can contend for...
