Anglo American Oil Company Ltd Celebrating 15 years of trading

Product catalogue 2014

Specialist supplier of racing fuels and oils

Products for racers from racers

W

hen we started the company 15 years ago, I could not have imagined where we would be today. Anglo American Oil Company is still a family owned business that represents some of the greatest racing brands in the world. Sunoco, with its established name and history, is the largest manufacturer of race fuels in the world. Driven Racing Oil, which has only been on the market for 10 years, has grown to be the “must have” oil for racing amongst those who understand oils and want to reach the finishing line, all the time, every time. Last year we added Kleers motorsport range to our portfolio, and as with every product that we introduce, we strongly believe that they fit our business objectives, whilst also adding something extra for our customers. When the company was formed I was racing in the Renault Spider Championship and although I never had the opportunity to be a professional racer, I enjoyed it so much so that I decided to make a living out of my passion. I also wanted to give a chance to racers that may not have had enough funds to race on a professional level an opportunity to compete. It took over 10 years before we could action what is now known today as the Sunoco Daytona Challenges. The success of the recent Sunoco Challenges has been proved with two young racers, Bradley Smith and Lewis Plato from Billericay in Essex. Racing for Bradley’s family run Mectech racing team, they did the impossible, with Bradley winning the 2014 Sunoco Rolex 24 At Daytona Challenge and Lewis winning the Sunoco IMSA 200 Challenge, both having raced Radical sports cars to win! We wish them both good luck in Daytona, maybe this will be the year when they both step onto the top of the podium?

IMSA Explained

Autosport & Sunoco Daytona Trip

IMSA explained

Built 1958, 3.56 miles road course, 31 degree banking, total infield area 180 acres

With IMSA, the International Motor Sports Association has a long history as the premier sanctioning body for sports car competition in North America and was founded in 1969 by John Bishop with the assistance of NASCAR president Bill France Sr. The first IMSA sanctioned race grew into the series that became known at the IMSA GT series, adding prototype sports cars in the 1980s which proved a huge success through the years. The GRAND-AM Road racing association ran 14 exciting seasons of sports car competition in North America, with a radical step in 2003 where it introduced the Daytona Prototype as its lead class. We also saw the ALMS racing, from 1999, building a loyal group of followers. Whilst both series were successful on their own, it became apparent that they would need to combine in order to grow the sport. In September 2012 the two groups announced they would merge into one organization, to begin in the 2014 season, and that the unified series would be sanctioned by IMSA. It is hoping thisnew exciting chapter will provide an even better experience for sports car enthusiasts. IMSA’s TUDOR United SportsCar Championship opens with a pair of historic events – the Rolex 24 At Daytona and Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring fueled by Fresh from Florida – building on the vision of John Bishop and Bill France Sr. from 45 years ago.

Tudor United SportsCar Championship Prototype Class (P)

The P class combines GRAND-AM Daytona Prototypes, ALMS P2 and DeltaWing cars. The Prototype class features the fastest and most technologically advanced cars in North America, capable of speeds in excess of 200 mph.

Prototype Challenge Class (PC)

This is retained from the current ALMS class structure, the PC is a spec class featuring open top race cars and technology such as carbon fiber chassis, carbon brakes and a sequential gearbox.

GT Le Mans (GTLM)

Consisting of the current ALMS Grand Touring (GT) class, GT Le Mans machines are the most elite and fastest GT cars on the track, but are still based on production models. A true proving ground for leading manufacturers, GTLM cars are capable of speeds in excess of 180 mph.

Bradley Smith is the overall season winner who will take part in the Sunoco Rolex 24 At Daytona Challenge, provided by Daytona and promoted by Anglo American Oil Company. Last year Ivan Bellarosa was our overall 2012 season winner. Three years ago we introduced the Sunoco GRAND-AM Challenge for the rest of our control fuel championships, with Bradleys team mate, Lewis Plato, winning the seat this year in the 200 mile challenge in a Chevrolet Camaro, so needless to say we are hoping for an exciting weekend!

GT Daytona (GTD)

Consisting of current GRAND-AM GT, GX and ALMS GTC classes, GT Daytona race cars are the second fastest of the GT classes and are enhanced (but not defined by) technology.

Additional IMSA Classes Continental Tire Sportscar Challenge

Racing at the same race weekends as the Tudor series and divided into Grand Sport (GS) and Street Tuner (ST) based on engine size and power.

Cooper Tires Prototype Lites

The series features global race car constructors Elan Motorsport Technologies backed by Mazda power

Lamborghini Super Trofeo

Provides the perfect first race experience for young and gentleman drivers, with the Lamborghini GT3 for more experienced racers

Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA and Canada

The Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car and a multi-class structure of the series teaches drivers essential skills for an eventual career in the Tudor United Sportscar Championship

Ferrari Challenge

One make series based on the Ferrari 458 Challenge sports car.

What else would you be doing in January?

To fight the cold and wet weather of Northern Europe, what could be better than visiting Florida to attend the Rolex 24 At Daytona? It is not only on the most exciting races we have been to, where you can spot some of your favourite stars of the racing world, but it also gives you the chance to see cars finishing within a fraction of second of each other, soaking up thewarm Florida sunshine, recharging your batteries and enjoy the atmosphere of such an historic event, in preparation for the European racing season in April.

The Sunoco Challenge

For the last 5 years the Sunoco Daytona Challenge has been introducing a winner from our top Sunoco fuelled championships into the highest level of American Sports car racing and awarding them a seat in a Daytona Prototype by giving them the chance of a lifetime to showcase their skills in front of a crowd of over 50,000 people.

Sports fans can only dream of standing in the huddle at a professional football game or sitting in a Major League Baseball dugout. Yet in sports car racing, the spectators become part of the action throughout an event weekend, right up until the green flag waves to start the competition! Going to the Rolex 24 At Daytona is easier than what you think. Virgin Atlantic flies from Gatwick or Manchester to Orlando from around £450, you can then pick up the hire car from £120, and then just drive for 75 minutes and you too could be on the famous Daytona Beach! We also recommend Fountain Beach hotel, situated on the beach and is around 10 minutes from the Speedway, for around £55 per night (2 sharing), including breakfast. We have organised a ticket package, which includes in-field tickets, garage access, a behind the scenes tour of the facilities, a welcome breakfast and beer and pizza evening – all for only £98!

2013 final standings

Bradley Smith 115.71pts

5 years of success proved that once in a lifetime opportunities do exist – Radical SR3 Challenge Champion Bradley Smith proved his worth in 2013 Bradley Smith convincingly won the Radical SR3 Challenge in 2013 in only his second full year of car racing and in doing so also secured enough average points to smash the opposition in the 2014 Sunoco Rolex 24 At Daytona Challenge. Bradley, our 5th winner, will take to the wheel of a Daytona Prototype at the 2014 Rolex 24 At Daytona in the first ever IMSA race where ALMS and GRAND-AM race on a merged grid. Bradley, from Billericay in Essex, England, first started racing karts at the age of eight where he always had dad Mike as the engineer, the team manager and coach on his side. After Super One they ventured out in Europe for several years to hone Bradley’s technical skills and race craft before returning home to buy a Radical SR3 for the 2012 season. Naturally Bradley was run by the family team, Mectech Motorsport, which resulted in Bradley winning the 2012 Radical Clubman’s Cup before moving up to what has become one of the most fiercely contested one make sports prototype championships in the world - the Radical SR3 Challenge! Bradley squashed the lap record at the first Snetterton race and continued his winning pace throughout the season winning 12 out of 14 races (the two he didn’t win were interrupted by safety cars which hampered his progress through the field after the mandatory pit stops), with numerous fastest laps and pole positions won against some of the fastest pro-drivers today. The Sunoco Rolex 24 At Daytona Challenge has tickled the imagination of nearly 400 racers that have challenged each other over the last 5 years including stars such as Daniel Ricciardo (second in 2010), Jean-Eric Vergne (second in 2011), Felipe Nasr (won in 2011), the late Allan Simonsen and Nick Tandy but also over

2013 final standings

Lewis Plato 109.06pts

Sunoco 200 Challenge Introduced in 2011 as a challenge for club racers the Sunoco 200 Challenge continues to thrill racers from all over the world As with the Sunoco Rolex 24 At Daytona Challenge, eligible racers that have signed up for the Sunoco 200 Challenge get points from where they finish: 100 points for a race win, down to 5 points for tenth position plus 20 points awarded for fastest laps and pole position individually. The points are then divided by the number of races in the racer’s season to create an average score, then the highest point scorer wins a place in the race. Included in the prize are flights, hotel rooms, race suit and three days of testing at the Roar Before The Rolex 24 and of course the race itself! Racers from the Radical Clubman’s Cup, MINI Challenge JCW Class, F3 Cup, GT Cup, Britcar Production Cup and the Dutch Supercar Challenge fought for the prize drive. In total over 100 racers challenged for the Sunoco 200 Challenge,

of which the closest was Chris Smiley in the JCW MINI Challenge who was very close to winning, but as Lewis Plato upped his speed at the same time as Chris suffered some ‘bad luck’ (race incidents etc.), he managed to steal the big prize with just one round to go! The Sunoco Rolex 24 At Daytona Challenge has produced five worthy winners since it was created by Jim France and Anders Hildebrand. The Sunoco 200 Challenge (formerly known as the Sunoco GRAND-AM 200 Challenge) is now bringing its third challenger to get the chance of a lifetime to race on the famous Daytona International Speedway’s 31 degree banking. Lewis Plato, team mate to Bradley Smith, in a Mectech run Radical SR3, dominated the Radical Clubman’s Cup (after he learnt how to get off the start line that is) in his first year of racing and will now, as part of his prize, race a flame spitting V8 powered Chevrolet Camaro on the Friday before the Rolex 24 At Daytona which runs alongside all of the razzmatazz of the big race! The Continental series BMW Performance 200 race, as it is called, is divided into two classes, the ST (Street Tuner) and the big GS (Grand Sport) class where Lewis will compete in the Camaro against Aston Martins, Porsches, Mustangs and other sports and muscle cars. The race itself is 200 miles long (hence the name) and many of the racers in the Rolex 24 use the race to get up to speed. The grid holds up to 90 cars, so Lewis will be extremely busy behind the wheel and therefore it will be absolutely key is to keep the car in one piece until the final 30 minutes, where he will then be able to challenge for the win. In 2013 Lawrence Davey was running as high as sixth place, but

later dropped down to 23rd after a “cuddle” with an Aston Martin put the left rear wheel out of alignment, although finally finished less than 25 seconds from the winner, so this contest is, as you might understand, a very intensive race. The revamped Sunoco 200 Challenge will continue for the 2014 season and again provide an up-and-coming racer the opportunity to race over 4,000 miles away from the comfort of his homeland. Maybe your talent is such so that you will be picked up by a team manager and your dream becomes reality, or it may just be one of the best race weekends ever! Whatever happens - we will continue to provide opportunities for Sunoco fuelled championships for years ahead.

How we deliver fuel

How we deliver fuel

How we deliver fuel

Pumped service events

Our wide range of race fuels are supplied to our customers in a wide variety of ways Control fuel supplier

A number of race series have chosen us as their control fuel supplier. This means that all racers must use the nominated fuel for all races. We support these series by being on site across the whole race weekend, including any official test days. Fuel is delivered to each competitor in drums and we collect any empties after the meeting has finished. Spare fuel is always available and unused, sealed drums can be returned. We test fuel samples on site with our own FTIR infrared spectrometer, which produces a very accurate chemical graph of the fuel, which is compared against a reference sample. The advantages to a series of running a control race fuel are: • Our very consistent race fuels help protect engines from detonation worries and reduce component wear • Creates a level playing field for all the competitors

10

• Removes the legal issues that teams or individuals can face when transporting large volumes of fuel • Forecourt petrol stations limit the amount of fuel that they will sell in cans. Although not enforced at all forecourts, this can make the collection of large volumes of fuel not only time consuming but difficult • We work closely with the series organisers to develop a range of joint marketing iniatives

Official fuel supplier

Some series prefer to leave fuel as a free choice for the competitors, but like the option to have our support at their events, for those racers who like to use a race fuel. Our service operates in exactly the same way as a control fuel arrangement, apart from the fact that no testing is carried out and marketing support is reduced.

Anglo American Oil Company Ltd • +44(0)1929 551557 • www.aaoil.co.uk • [email protected]

We have been working within the historic market since 2004 offering a leaded fuel service with 100 RON and 105RON fuels available for sale by the litre. We are the official fuel supplier to the Masters Series, HSCC and HRDC, supporting all their UK events and selected European rounds as well. Competitors are free to source their own fuel, but an increasing number choose to use our service. Our fuels remove the need to use other octane or lead replacement additives, which can if over treated, cause misfiring. Mixing the 105RON with pump fuel will also give a very cost effective race fuel, which will offer good levels of protection for a comparatively low compression race engine. The recent trend within the rally community has been to move to controlled refuelling using mobile refueling equipment operated by a professional team, within a dedicated area. This has been driven by a number of factors, not least the desire by event organisers to limit the damaging effect on the local environment in terms of possible fuel spills and empty cans being left behind. We have been servicing the British Rally Championship since 2008 providing a range of fuels by the litre.

FTIR sample test results

Super Unleaded Batch No. 531 Sunoco RMR Batch No. 526

Pallet service

For a limited number of series, we arrange to have all fuel orders delivered to the race event by pallet service, for the series themselves to take delivery and distribute amongst the racers. Works well for low volume events and removes the need for teams to transport their own fuel.

Home delivery

Our biggest group of customers are those that order fuel by phone, email, internet or fax to our office. We are happy to send a single 25 litre drum or orders making up several pallets, using our hazardous transport partner, Clarke Transport, who operate a 3 day or next day service for any orders processed before midday.

Radical sportscars Radical create a complete sportscar racing ladder and reduce racing costs Radical Sportscars is the world’s largest manufacturer of trackday and sports-racing cars, based in the UK but selling over 250 cars per year to over 30 countries worldwide. The Anglo American Oil Company is the official race fuel partner of Radical Sportscars for its European and UK domestic race championships. The Radical Masters Euroseries, SR3 Challenge, Clubman’s Cup and SR1 Cup have gone from strength-to-strength in 2013 with packed grids and thrilling racing, both feats set to continue in 2014.

RADICAL MASTERS EUROSERIES

Radical’s premier pan-European endurance race series has visited the Continent’s fastest and most challenging Grand Prix circuits in 2013 with a calendar that kicked off early in March at Portimao. The everpopular Silverstone, Spa-Francorchamps and Circuit de Catalunya featured alongside Paul Ricard and Monza making a welcome return. The Masters Euroseries features two classes for the SR8 RX and SR3 RS respectively; in the former Masters Class, Brazilian former single-seater ace Victor Correa had to wait until the very last round to seal his title and wash pushed hard throughout the season by 2012 champion Konstantin Calko. After the final round the pair were split by just four points with the Marks Electrical Racing duo of Tony Wells/James Littlejohn third in class. Radical UK Works Team driver James Abbott sealed the Supersports Class and overall championship honours in his SR3 RS with incredible consistency and pace throughout the season. Nine class wins, five pole positions and five fastest laps ensured he was never headed, although last year’s UK Cup champion Colin Noble and Czech racers Bronislav Formanek/Josef Zaruba weren’t far behind. In 2014 the Radical Masters Euroseries will once again enjoy an unbeatable calendar of world-class race circuits running alongside the well-promoted GT Sport package, and will continue to offer the same exciting 50-minute endurance race format for one or two drivers per car.

RADICAL SR1 CUP

RADICAL SR3 CHALLENGE

Radical’s UK domestic endurance championship enjoyed a revised format and a new name in 2013, changing from the Radical UK Cup to the Radical SR3 Challenge. Britain’s fastest single-make formula has welcomed some extremely experienced sportscar, BTCC and single-seater stars to the Radical family, alongside gentleman drivers of all levels of experience to create a fascinating and close-fought title battle. Young Billericay racer Bradley Smith has undoubtedly been the class of the 2013 field with 12 outright wins seeing him wrap up the title in the penultimate round. Not only does Smith win an SR8 RX drive in the Radical Masters Euroseries as his prize but also the Sunoco Rolex 24 at Daytona Challenge which will see him drive a Daytona Prototype in January 2014. He wasn’t the only race winner in 2013 though. At Oulton Park Andy Cummings and ex-British GT champ Bradley Ellis notched up

12

a victory whilst at Snetterton Peter Belshaw and Phil Keen took a win for Marks Electrical. Throughout the season the racing has been fast and furious. Expect more of the same in 2014 as the same great SR3 Challenge format continues to grow and mature.

RADICAL CLUBMAN’S CUP

The evergreen Radical Clubman’s Cup has enjoyed grids of over 30 cars throughout 2013 ensuring close racing and a tight championship battle between the Supersport and Prosport classes. Despite missing the opening round at Snetterton eventual champion Jesper Westerholm was straight on the pace at Brands Hatch to battle with Supersports class victor Lewis Plato throughout the season, trading places at every race. At the season’s end Westerholm had taken the Clubman’s Cup by

just five points from Plato to secure a drive in the SR3 Challenge. Plato has the Sunoco-supported GRAND-AM 200 Challenge prize to look forward to in January, thanks to his consistently high class results through the season. There’ll be even more thrills and spills in 2014 with the addition of the SR1 Cup class for drivers progressing from Radical’s entrylevel championship but still enjoying the same great 20-minute sprint format races...roll on the first round.

The Radical SR1 Cup has been THE great success story of UK motorsport in 2013. To launch a new ‘championship-in-a-box’ concept for novice racers to gain all the experience, confidence and racecraft they need to compete successfully, and witness 24 eager racers enter Paddock Hill Bend at Brands Hatch for the first time has been a fantastic achievement. The SR1 Cup package includes a brand-new Le Mans-inspired SR1 Cup racecar, intensive dedicated trackday tuition, a free race suit and race entry fees to eight races at Brands, Oulton Park, Cadwell Park and Snetterton. It’s a concept that’s been welcomed and acclaimed by industry professionals and looks set to enjoy even bigger grids in 2014. Colin Noble Jnr, son of Masters Euroseries runner-up Noble Snr scooped the inaugural title after a season-long battle with fellow youngster Dan Vaughan. The pair spent much of the season nose-totail but in the end Noble was able to edge Vaughan with Rob Almond third-in-championship. The SR1 Cup also offers the Fangio Trophy, contested by drivers over 40 years of age; in this Caterham Academy convert Brian Caudwell took the honours ahead of James Guess and Matt Brookes. In a short space of time the SR1 Cup has made a big impression. Such has been the success in just one season, already the SR1 Cup is being considered for other markets around the world. We can’t wait to see what 2014 will produce.

Sunoco CF is the control fuel for the MSA British Rally Championship (BRC) and is a high quality unleaded, fast burning fuel. To minimise environmental impact on public areas such as woodland the BRC introduced centralised refuelling to give a safe, single refuelling facility at all of its events. Using a control fuel supplied from managed refuelling rigs negated the need for the carriage of fuel to and from events by individual teams meaning a safer and cleaner public environment.

2014 Overview

The 2014 MSA British Rally Championship (BRC) comprises seven classic rallies, a mix of four gravel and three asphalt events, each offering a different length, terrain and character. New for 2014, the epic Rally Isle of Man will provide two point scoring opportunities creating eight rounds in total with competitors counting their best six scores. With four rounds on each surface, separate asphalt and gravel championships will exist for all competitors including BRC Challenge Trophy runners. Already proving to be a development arena for real talent, the main BRC will continue to be the pinnacle of the sport in the UK

14

and in recognition of this, the cars will run at the front of the rallies in a modern group and ahead of the historic cars. It will again feature just two wheel drive cars in five new categories. The outright rally wins and eventual British Rally Champion driver and co-driver are expected to come from BRC1 which is based on FIA R3 regulations. BRC2 will be for FIA R2 category cars and the technical regulations will provide for a one-off development of vehicles via the Championship Passport scheme. BRC3 will comprise the MSA British Junior Rally Championship where for the first time, competitors will be allowed to build their own non homologated cars based on slightly modified R1 standard showroom regulations. The MSA British Manufacturer Teams Rally Championship will be award to teams fielding two cars in BRC1, 2 or 3. Integral to the 2014 Championship will be the new BRC Challenge Trophy (formerly the BRC Challenge) which will be inter-seeded with the main BRC group, providing all of benefits of participating in the British Rally Championship, but on a smaller budget. The Challenge Trophy runners will complete a shortened version of the overall route and are not allowed to do reconnaissance on gravel. For newcomers, it provides a starting point, experience and insight of each event, recce on asphalt rounds, plus reward

Anglo American Oil Company Ltd • +44(0)1929 551557 • www.aaoil.co.uk • [email protected]

and recognition with its own dedicated finish ceremonies. The BRC Challenge Trophy classes, BRC4 & BRC5 will be open to non homologated vehicles and provide the BRC Stars of the Future (for under 21 year olds) a first rung on the ladder to BRC stardom. The BRC Challenge Trophy is a new addition in the form of an amalgamated BRC Challenge. The Challenge Trophy provides new category BRC4 and BRC5 crews with a chance to compete in the BRC with non homologated vehicles, without the additional cost burden of higher entry fees, longer events, having to do the reconnaissance on gravel rallies. Competition for U21 junior drivers will be focused on the BRC Stars of the Future for drivers who were born on or after 1st January 1993, driving BRC5 designated cars only. BRC5 will provide low cost entry and structured progression into the main BRC. New for 2014, separate BRC Gravel and Asphalt Championship titles for all competitors whether doing the main event, of the shorter Challenge trophy section. Points will be drawn up from the classified results at the point in the rally where both elements split. Four rounds on each surface will create a separate championship table with the best three scores counting towards the final total.

The MINI Festival format develops a broader appeal for spectators/ sponsors by combining exciting racing with entertainment for the fans including car stunts, pitlane and grid walk abouts. Our guest appearance with the British GT/F3 package at Snetterton and the Brands GP Dutch Supercars event offers more opportunities to impress sponsors with some of the highest profile racing in the UK. We will also be finalising1/2 non championship events to book end what we hope will prove to be the best MINI Challenge season yet. Further details of these non-championship events will follow in due course whilst providing a natural route for progression. As a true single make/model championship scrutineering controls mean that fairness is maintained so that drivers and teams can be sure that only skill and legitimate knowledge will have a bearing on race results. Budgets are also kept under control through restrictions on tyre use and widespread use of control parts in areas where performance advantage could be gained.

The MINI Challenge is ‘The Place to Race’

The 2014 MINI Challenge has 7 meetings* at the UKs best circuits. The calendar showcases more high profile events, including another MINI Festival at Oulton Park, a guest appearance on the British GT Package and a new Pirelli Festival.

F3 Cup

F3 Cup is one of the UK’s fastest club-level single seater championships, and provided one of the tightest finishes in British motorsport in 2013. The championship is the perfect place for drivers to hone their skills in superb machinery, most importantly, on a budget. The championship caters for F3 chassis from 1980 up to 2007 across three different classes: The Masters 96 Class, for cars built before 1997, the Trophy 01 Class for cars between 1997 and 2001 and the Cup 07 of cars from 2001 to 2007. It was Alex Craven of Lanan Racing who won a richly-deserved championship title in 2013, overhauling early championship leader and GP3 racer Alice Powell, racing with the highly-experienced Mark Bailey Racing squad. The title race went down to the wire, but Craven outscored BRDC Rising Star Powell at the final round of the season at Snetterton to join Chris Dittmann on the honours list of champions. For the second year in a row the championship went down to a three-way shoot-out with Tristan Cliffe the third protagonist, the man who claimed the most wins all year but still only finished third. Henry Chart would have made it a four-way battle but for bad luck, though the double race-winner shone in the final race of the season. Louis Hamilton-Smith did everything but win in 2013, claiming 10 podiums from the 12 races he entered. That competitiveness, coupled with a calendar packed with some of the UK’s best circuits, has made F3 Cup an attractive place for drivers of very different experience levels to race at a fraction of the cost of British F3.

GT CUP

F3 Cup photos by Jonathan Hatfield

2013 was a superb year for the GT Cup culminating in a thrilling final round with Jeff Wyatt clinching the Championship from season long front runner Alex Martin by only one point.  The average grid size for the seven weekend calendar was over twenty six cars with drivers competing in cars form thirteen marques. The GT Cup encourages engineering and so had the honour of being the series chosen for the racing debut of the new SIN R1 racing car – a World first. 2014 is shaping up to be an even better year for the championship. With an exciting calendar that will visit three Grand Prix circuits and includes supporting the prestigious Blancpain GT series at Brands Hatch on what promises to be a GT extravaganza. Motors TV will also broadcast the June Silverstone meeting live as cars and drivers compete around the international circuit using the F1 ‘Wing’ pit buildings as their base for the meeting. The format remains ideal for solo drivers but also accommodates two driver team entries and professional driver / coaches. Each two day meeting will have one 45 minute race with a compulsory pit stop on the Saturday, and two twenty five minute sprint races on the Sunday. The Saturday will also include a thirty five minute free practice session, and a 20 minute qualifying session. The one day rounds will have 30 minute qualifying session and two twenty five minute sprint races. Championship boss, Marc Haynes commented: “The 2013

Britcar

Endurance Motorsport Catering for a diverse range of machinery Britcar has established itself on the calendar as the premier series for endurance racing Anglo American Oil Company are pleased to continue their relationship with Britcar by providing a fuel service to both the Britcar Endurance Championship and the Britcar Endurance Sports and Touring Car Championship. In 2014 competitors will be free to supply their own fuel, or source it from Anglo American. As the official fuel supplier, we support the series by being on site across the whole race weekend delivering fuel to competitors and collecting any empties after the meeting has finished.

Britcar Endurance Championship

The Britcar Endurance Championship caters for out and out GT cars from Le Mans levels of performance such as Porsche 911 RSR’s and Ferrari GT2’s, Le Mans style prototypes in LMPX and GT4 cars such as Aston Martin GT4 and Ginetta G50s. Race weekends are a mix of two 90 minute races and a longer race at Spa Francorchamps. All races include the excitement of an endurance race featuring pit stops with driver changes, refuelling and tyre changes. The championship is usually the headline event at race meetings and has support from the Britcar family of races. The endurance Championship continues the Britcar ethos of offering great track time at each race weekend. The 2013 championship was action packed throughout with the title of ‘2013 MSA British Endurance Champions’ going to the Team Parker Porsche 911 of Ian Loggie and Chris Jones.

Britcar Endurance Sports and Touring Car Championship

The companion championship to the Britcar Endurance Championship is the Britcar Endurance Sports and Touring Car Championship. It caters for less tuned and more road based cars and is a mixture of production saloons, endurance specials and older GT4 cars. All of the races last 90 minutes except for the 4 hour race at the famous Spa Francorchamps Grand Prix Circuit and feature a mandatory pit stop. In 2013 Ian Lawson, Anthony Wilds and Mike Wilds piloted their ING Sport 320i to championship glory. For 2014 there are plans for two new series aimed at smaller

20

engined more cost effective machinery, named the Britcar Trophy Series and the Britcar Duro Series. These series are intended to widen the appeal of the Britcar format.

Britcar 24 Hours

It is hoped that the drama and excitement of the Britcar 24hrs will return in 2014 after a one year break This is a must do event for many racers. With few UK circuits holding licences for 24 racing, the approval process is both a complex and time consuming issue and at the time of writing the local authorities are still to make a final decision. The 24 hours is a non championship event where both the Britcar Endurance Championship and the Britcar Endurance Sports and Touring Car Championship combine along with extra entries from other UK Championships as well as a great contingent of overseas endurance teams joining in on the action at the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit. Always fun and unpredictable, this is the show case event on the Britcar calendar and also Anglo American Oil Company’s biggest control fuel supply event.

HSCC

The Historic Racing Drivers Club’s (HRDC) outlook is to bring back and uphold the spirit of the type of ‘Club Racing’ that was prevalent in the 1950s and ‘60s. This ethos of ‘Old School’ values has captured the attention of many historic racers who feel that the historic racing arena is in danger of becoming too overtly commercial, with less and less focus on the people who work-on and race-in their treasured cars in favour of harvesting the perceived wealth of those individuals. Thus the HRDC provides a more stripped-down approach to racing, with a greater emphasis on camaraderie and community spirit, which evoke an altogether more harmonious atmosphere in the HRDC race paddocks throughout each racing season. That’s not to say that the level of racing is any less exciting in HRDC races – from the cheeky manoeuvres Austin A35s and A40s to the bellowing power slides of the Jaguar Mk.1 and Mk.7s, the competitive spirit of HRDC racers is undiminished! The 2014 season will see both HRDC Series (HRDC ‘Touring Greats’ for pre-’60 historic Touring Cars’ and HRDC ‘Allstars’ for pre-’66 historic Sports, Touring and GT cars) contest six race dates at six premier U.K racing venues. Full information on how to get involved can be obtained by gong onto the HRDC website:

The Historic Sports Car Club is Britain’s premier historic motor racing club. It was formed in 1966 to encourage the preservation and continued racing use of the classic sports and sports racing cars of the 1940’s and 1950’s many of which, technically outdated, were then being neglected and even forgotten. The club runs an average of 12 race meetings a year including the Cadwell Park Wolds Trophy, Brands Hatch Superprix, The Oulton Park Gold Cup, The Donington Historic Festival and both the Silverstone Classic and the Silverstone International. For 2013 the club added a new event the Thruxton Easter Revival which is to be repeated in 2014. It also adminsters a total of 13 Race Championships and series. In 2011 the HSCC was awarded Club of the year at the International Historic Motoring Awards, to compliment their previous two awards of “Historic Competition Club of the Year.” In 2013 the HSCC launched a new series of races for the Super Touring Cars, of the 1990’s. This has attracted a lot of interest, including former drivers Patrick Watts, John Cleland and Tim Harvey from the period. In 2014 the grids are set to expand furter.

Decades in Race Fuel Excellence

SPEED EuroSeries goes Dutch European 2ltr Sports Car Championship The SPEED sports prototype competitors will have greatly increased grids in 2014 as the CN cars will form an exclusive category within the Dutch Superlight series of events that travel across Europe with 30 plus starters. The SPEED enduro events will include 60 and 90 minute races and potentially a two hour race on the wonderful Brands Hatch GP long circuit in September. The programme as envisaged as we go to press includes events also at the Nurburgring, Spa, Zolder and Paul Ricard in the South of France. SPEED cars will continue to reflect the full FIA CN regulations running with the 2litre Honda engines that have proved the cornerstone of reliability and performance. Sunoco racing fuel will be the number 1 choice for the competitors as in past seasons and already new cars are being prepared for the events. The successful Wolf chassis will again be plentiful but more competition is expected from the UK in the shape of the Gibson and Tiga cars. The Gibson ran successfully late in 2013 and for the new season a new Tiga model will be unveiled. Taatus, Ligier and Norma will continue

24

to provide strong competition in this closely matched formula that provides a first class training ground for young drivers with endurance racing ambitions and gentlemen drivers wanting quality racing at sensible prices. “Integrating our entries with the popular Dutch Superlight categories reduces costs for our SPEED entrants whilst still giving the international experience to the drivers and teams. Having a larger number of cars on the grid makes it a more enjoyable race meeting and fun is what it is all about,” said Speed co-ordinator Stuart McCrudden. The SPEED category within the Superlights events will have unique points awarded that will count towards the end-of-season awards with regular position bulletins posted on the SPEED website. In this way recognition of outstanding results will continue to be rewarded. 2014 will be another competitive season for the CN racers.

Coinciding with the change of the 2014 FIA fuel regulations we have developed two new turbo fuels. The fuels are so new that the specifications are not finalised at time of print. The RTF is designed to meet 2014 FIA fuel regulations and to get the absolute maximum out of the specifications. Emphasis has been to produce a turbo fuel with lots of bottom end and mid range torque. The RTFF is designed for turbo race vehicles where no regulations prohibit the composition of fuels used. With an octane number of over 106 and an oxygen content of 15% this fuel will dramatically increase power in any turbo engine subject to precise engine mapping.

SUNOCO 260 GTX

SUNOCO Green E15

Sunoco E85R

SUNOCO 260 GT

260 GTX is designed for high performance racing cars, muscle cars, street rods, motorcycles, karts and marine applications. 260 GTX will allow significantly increased boost levels in non air-restricted supercharged or turbocharged applications. It contains no metallic compounds to harm catalytic converters or oxygen sensors. It contains no oxygen thus it does not contain any ethers (ETBE or MTBE), alcohols (such as ethanol or methanol), and it does not contain MMT. This ensures it is a very inert fuel that will not cause any compatibility issues and will store for extended periods even in humid conditions. 260 GTX provides protection against knock up to compression ratios as high as 13.5:1. Available in 25 and 200 litre drums.

Sunoco Green E15 contains 15% ethanol and is the control fuel for NASCAR. Developed specifically to meet the continuing conservation initiatives being introduced by The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, using US produced ethanol. A highly oxygenated fuel. Available in 25 and 200 litre drums.

Sunoco E85–R is blended to consistently contain 85% ethanol. Conventional E85 can vary from 68% to 79% ethanol and also varies seasonally, making it difficult to use where precise mapping is required in a racing application. The non ethanol portion of E85 –R is comprised of highly refined race fuel hydrocarbons for stability and consistency. Points to consider are the fuel’s potential to be more aggressive with rubber materials and the fact that you will use up to 40% more fuel compared to traditional petrol.

With the highest octane rating of any US street legal fuel, 260 GT will allow increased boost levels in supercharged or turbocharged applications. It contains no metallic compounds to harm catalytic converters or oxygen sensors. It has a high oxygen content to enable a richer mixture resulting in more power and rapid response of the engine. 260 GT provides protection against knock up to compression ratios as high as 14:1. Available in 25 and 200 litre drums.

R 6SR is a leaded racing gasoline designed for racing engines requiring a leaded high quality and high octane racing fuel. It is specially developed for engines requiring lead to lubricate the valves and valve seats. R6SR provides protection against knock up to compression ratios as high as 13.5:1. Can be used without any special setup being required, although fine tuning will produce the best results. Available in 25 and 200 litre drums.

A leaded racing fuel designed for high compression engines which routinely function between 7,000 – 10,000 rpm. It is specially formulated with low sensitivity to achieve a high motor octane value for increased protection against detonation under severe operating conditions. This is also an ideal fuel to use as a base to mix with ordinary pump fuels to produce an excellent, cost effective race fuel. Supreme provides protection against knock up to compression ratios as high as 15:1. Available in 25 and 200 litre drums.

MO2X is blended to meet the needs of small displacement, high rpm and high compression engines. It can be utilised with compression rations up to 15:1. Ideal for motor cycles, snowmobiles and karts. It is formulated to give improved throttle response and protection against detonation at high load and high rpm. MO2X is available in 25 and 204 litre drums.

A leaded racing fuel designed for exceptionally high performance two– and four–stroke competition engines generating high cylinder pressures. It has a very narrow distillation curve and a low final boiling point to help improve thermal combustion efficiency at high engine speeds. Sunoco Maximal’s distinctive fast burn characteristics provide more complete combustion than slower burning fuels in applications which operate in excess of 10,000 rpm. Available in 25 and 204 litre drums.

Typical applications • High performance classic motorcycle engines such as Manx Nortons • Classic racing engines requiring leaded fuels, running raised compression ratios • Supplied as a pump fuel at various historic race meetings • Not suitable for engines equipped with Lambda sensors or catalytic converters • Does not contain Ethanol Specific Gravity 0.73 RON 105 MON 95 Reid Vapour Pressure, psi 8 Distillation, ºC Initial Boiling Point 35 E70ºC, % volume 23 E100ºC, % volume 48 E150ºC, % volume 98 Final Boiling Point 175 Lead, g/l
