Century Motorsport’s quartet of G50 drivers have been conducting pre season testing over the last 2 weeks with excellent results. 3 drivers tested at Oulton Park as a shakedown before moving to Silverstone for some wet testing and then all 4 drivers went to Thruxton for the only test day available before the first meeting in April. None of the drivers had driven Thruxton in a G50 and 2 of them had not seen the circuit at all before the day. Times during the day were comparable with any of the other G50’s on show and better than most, with Aaron Williamson and Benji Hetherington trading fast laps with each other. Phil Broad was getting used to the car and the circuit and his times came down all day, sadly Freddie Hetherington was beset with gremlins during the day and was restricted in the amount of running time.

3 of the cars then went onto Silverstone on the 8th March and had a stunning day with both Hetherington brothers and Aaron Williamson lapping within 7 tenths of Nathan Freke’s pole time at last years TOCA meeting - on used tyres. Commented Nathan afterwards, ‘All of our drivers have enjoyed the testing over the laast 2 weeks, and the results have been very satisfying for the team and the Silverstone times were particularly gratifying. The season ahead should be really exciting for all of the drivers and Century’.

The team will be out next at the Ginetta Media day once again at Silverstone on the 15th March.
