Seat Homologation- URGENT PRESS RELEASE
URGENT PRESS RELEASE 2nd April 2012 RE: News Item released entitled “FIA Seat Homologations Cancelled” In response to the recent news items published in various media on or around the 20th February 2012, Corbeau Seats Ltd would like to clear up any misunderstandings regarding the homologation of our seat models.

Fourth for Fannin
Our young Corbeau driver Jody Fannin was flying the flag for Corbeau this weekend in the Ginetta GT Supercup after recovering from a massive shunt in testing a few weeks ago. Unfortunately Jody missed out on a podium top spot in race one after being held up by a slower G55, midway through the race Jody managed to overtake and catch up with the G50’s, but a long brake pedal hampered progress and Jody finished a respectable 5th. Race two saw the rain come down heavily and with Jody on Slicks he managed a great job, after over taking an extremely defensive...

Sideways season starts!
MPH Customs have been extremely busy over the winter break and the final result was revealed at Donington Park just a few weeks ago for the first round of the BDC Championship. Matt went out for his first practice session and trying to keep his sensible head on he thought he would take it easy for the first run but then the buzz kicked back in and Matt really showed what the Mazda RX-7 was capable of. Unfortunately for Matt all his hard work and effort did not quite reward him in the way he had hoped with a radiator blockage...
