Success for advanced F3 braking and clutch systems

AP Racing, manufacturer of performance braking and clutch systems for race and road use, has announced the recent victory for the revolutionary Radi-CAL brake systems and the Carlin Motorsport F3 team.

With a worldwide reputation for supplying high-quality, high-performance components to the motorsport and automotive industries, Coventry-based AP Racing announced the development of the Radi-CAL brake caliper in November.

The first competitive F3 outing for the AP Racing Radi-CAL brake system was at Oulton Park over the Easter weekend. Carlin Motorsport has begun the season with tremendous success, with victories in the International class for both Oliver Turvey and Jaime Alquersuari and a double win for Andy Meyrick in the National Class.

AP Racing is supplying complete braking systems to Carlin’s four F3 UK International Class cars. In addition, the company is also supplying brake systems to the two Carlin-run F3 UK National cars as well as on-track support at the UK series events. “After a full pre-season of testing it was great to finally get a chance to see how the Radi-CAL brake calipers would work in a race situation” said Trevor Carlin, team principal. “The car ran tremendously over the weekend, it looks like it will be a great season, thanks in part to the enhanced braking performance of the Radi-CAL brake calipers.”

Norman Barker, director of sales at AP Racing, added: “We have been working closely with Carlin Motorsport on the development of the groundbreaking Radi-CAL caliper system. We are looking forward to building on the recent success and for the opportunities we will have to continue to support the team with products and on-track assistance.”
