New Panoz Tests |
At Silverstone, November 17 |
|
David Brabham completed 20-30 laps at a wet Silverstone today in the new Panoz Roadster with the 4 liter V8 EPP engine, and commented that, “For a shakedown test, the car did everything we expected and more.”
Those present confirmed that the car is an absolute stunner – and it no longer sounds like a Panoz. The early signs are that the car has the potential to be an Audi beater, although all those involved with the project are aware that there is a long development road ahead. But they’re up for the challenge.
The new car could well appear in customer hands (as well as the Dave Price Racing factory entries) as the 2001 season progresses. More details of the test on November 18, together with a number of John Brooks photographs. |
