Zircotec Ceramic Coatings Selected for Historic Touring Car
ABINGDON, UK - A blend of increased performance coupled with a period look has led Mike Jordan to specify Zircotec’s ThermoHold® thermal barrier coating for an Austin A40 historic touring car. The ability to squeeze more performance from the 1293cc A Series engine and ensuring a more period look under the bonnet led Jordan to use Zircotec and follows the use on both the Ford GT40 he prepared and son Andrew’s BTCC MG6.
“Historic racing is very competitive, and we are looking for every opportunity to get performance from the car,” said Jordan. “The coating keeps heat levels down under-bonnet and can offer a little bit extra performance. Every gain, especially when you only have 130bhp is worthwhile.”
