Following Dave Hawes´s (dave sp2) glorious third place in the 2014 USGT TORA Driver´s Championship and consequently second place in the Team´s Standings, Lunchie´s Speed Shop went on to a deep silence. António Relvas (II AntR II) and Chris Alderson (TweekPunx) both ignored several interview requests due to unknown reasons and a few months later, Dave Hawes´s announced his return to Bratley Sport.

Assumed defunct, the double winning team remained in the thoughts of the fans and enthusiasts of GT Racing. Letters were sent, all without an answer, and according to a report from the Motorsports Association, the licenses from the remaining team members were canceled.

The mysterious situation, dated from 2014, came to an end last week where António Relvas (II AntR II) was seen testing at Silverstone. Behind the wheel of an Aston Martin Vantage GT4, the portuguese driver is set to participate in the TORA British GT4 Champioship in colaboration with Aston Martin Racing.

'I´m excited to come back and drive for Lunchie´s Speed Shop and Aston Martin' says Relvas. 'The car is fantastic and the team is working hard to finish up the last few details'

Questioned about the downgrade from GT3 to GT4, Relvas answered 'GT4 is a great place to re-launch our new team and put different strategies into action. We already have a set of plans for 2016, but for now, we want to focus on our re-build and perfect what has been lost'.

The TORA British GT Champioship commences 21th of June at Oulton Park.
