Kiaclub Nieuwsrobot Geplaatst 27 September, 2011 Geplaatst 27 September, 2011 They’ve only been racing two seasons, but Kia Motors America’s motorsports program has now achieved championship greatness, thanks to Nic Jönsson wining the driver’s title and propelling Kia to the manufacturer’s cup in the Street Tuner class of the Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge at Mid-Ohio. Jönsson finished seventh overall, having started the race with a three point lead in the class standings, which was enough to secure the title. Jönsson and co-driver Michael Galati were able to use the Kinetic Motorsports Forte Koup’s braking, handling and fuel efficiency to their advantage during the 2.5 hour race, battling a field of some 30 competitors to finish first overall in their category. “Second-year motorsports programs are not supposed to win championships but Kia Motors and Kinetic Motorsports have been committed to being the best since we formed our partnership in late-2009,” declared championship-winning driver Jönsson. “The Kia Forte Koups have been fantastic since getting off the truck at Daytona in January thanks to the tireless dedication of the team. We couldn’t be happier with the end result, and I have to thank Michael Galati whose skill and experience was invaluable in this championship run.” Lees het hele artikel Quote
