GT racing has boomed in recent years, both internationally and, increasingly so, on the British national racing scene. Its growth has largely been fuelled by the accessibility and competitiveness of the GT3 formula. But a consequence is that low-volume specials that previously populated grids are now few and far between.
Bucking the trend is Huntingdon-based CTR Developments with its self-developed Porsche 935 clone. Richard Chamberlain, his son Matt, and former Empress Race Developments man Tony Frost –recently aided by Peter Weston, previously Dyson Racing’s chief engineer in the American Le Mans Series – run a car capable of giving the GT3s a hard time in the GT Cup.
