Team Manager

This year BA/BARC is going into the ProNoMag better prepared then the previous year. We took what we learned last year and made the changes required to get more speed and better handling out of the Gift Card Chassis. We needed to be 30% quicker, and I think we got there. The addition of the new "BARC Block" motors has resulted in a much better race car . Acceleration, and braking have been improved, and the addition of the BARC Bite tires have resulting in cars that meet our goal. The very Best BA/BARC cars are being sent, and this includes a surprise

A Porsche 934 was prepared especially for this race, Gift Car chassis, Sidewinder, with BARC Bite urethanes

A Porsche 956 recently prepared and coming to the event with an adjustable rear suspension is the fastest BARC car at the Kleskun Hills track. Gift Card Chassis, Sidewinder, and BARC Bite urethanes.

Finally the surprise. The Porsche Carrera GT3 that participated in the Kleskun Hills open, was rebuilt with an interior, new wheels, Wider BARC Bite tires, and some rear end work resulting in Lap times a full second quicker than what was witnessed in the Kleskun Hills race. This result meant the Porsche 917 was bumped from the line up and this Carrera factory chassis gets the nod to compete for the BA/BARC team again.

How we do will remain to be seen, The competition does not stand still, so the improvements we have made may not get us where we need to be. However the team is hopeful for a better result this year then we had last year.

The early submission is necessary and made possible by cooperating with the PDR team and making use of the same international transporter to return the PDR Kleskun Hills event cars with these 2017 BARC prepared ProNoMag cars.

BARC encourages other teams to get ready , and submit cars to the European ProNoMag event coming this February.

Hey Dan,
can i hire you for commentary on the ProNoMag?
Great reading!
Looking forward to the BARC team cars. Being packed in the same box as the PRT cars, maybe they can trade some secrets about the Desmo.
Race will be announced officially in the next days!
Cheers,
puddle dude
