www.krayemracing.com The KRAYEM RACING STEALTH B6 driven by team owner DAVID KRAYEM completed a series of tests after a full winter rebuild by in house Chief Engineer Ben Scrivens. The car is quicker than the last 2 years when it dominated the FIA GT 90 REVIVAL SERIES. This extra pace has been achieved by improving aerodynamics in all areas of the car resulting in more downforce and less drag.
The teams second car is an ex British GT4 Ginetta G50 and this has also been tested during the year and now a development program is set to take place on aerodynamics during the closed season ready for 2010. Britcar 19-21 April 2008 We tested and qualified with 30 Britcars. We posted the fastest lap of the weekend of all Britcars and Britsports ahead of professional drivers in current GT3 cars such as Lamborgini, Aston Martin DBR9S,TVR Sagaris, Mosler, Porsche and Ferrari etc.
4/6 April Mugello (Italy Ferrari Historic Festival) Win and Second for Krayem’s Stealth B6 GT1 Race 1 The Krayem Racing Stealth started from the front of the grid and Krayem went onto set the fastest lap by over 1 second and won the 45 minute race by 30 seconds. Race 2 Krayem’s Stealth led by 400 metres at the FIRST corner after the rolling start and by some 20 seconds at the end of the first lap. The front left tyre then began to lose pressure and even with reduced speed the lead was steadily extended until the tyre failed just past the pits one lap before the pit stop window time commenced. 4 minutes was lost in limping around the 3.5 mile circuit to change the wheel and tyre and even gaining 7 seconds per lap the Stealth could not catch the leader and finished in second place. with 3 wins out of 4 and 38 points out of a possible 40.
The entries in the European FIA GT90's at the French GT meeting at Magny Cours last weekend included the McLaren F1 GTR which was 4th overall at the 1998 LeMans 24 hours and the Oreca Works Viper which was 2nd in its class at LeMans in 1999. During the 3 days of practice and qualification David Krayem's Stealth B6 GT1 and Paul Knapfield's McLaren F1 GTR were neck and neck and swapping fastest lap times with the McLaren on the final pole by only 0.015 seconds. In the 1st 45 minute race on Saturday evening the McLaren pulled out a 5 second lead but then the Stealth started to push and took the lead at the halfway point and stayed ahead to take the win by 5 seconds, both cars having lapped the remainder of the field. The Stealth and McLaren were circulating within 4 seconds of current FIA GT1 cars who were running in the feature races at the same event. The McLaren did not participate in Sunday morning's race and the Stealth completed the double winning comfortably by 40 seconds.
