One of the local champion racing drivers in Thailand is Thomas Raldorf, a Dane who has been resident in Thailand for many years. In 2017 he is moving to the top category Thailand Super Series in a Porsche GT3 Cup car.
I interviewed Thomas about this next step up, and he spoke with enthusiasm. “The 2017 season is certainly looking better and better for us, and I am proud to announce that we have just signed a long term contract with our main sponsor ContiX Asia.
“Having a long term contract with them gives us a much needed stability in the team and it makes forward planning a lot easier.
“ContiX Asia is a young dynamic company with offices in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.
“They have a new brand of Engine Oil on the market here in Asia called Unixx, and we will, in relation with this product launch in 2017, be known and referred to as the Unixx Race Team – TR Motorsport.
“Unixx is their proprietary brand, offering a range of performance automotive engine oils, using quality base stock and premium additive formulations. Unixx Engine Oils meets or exceeds the highest API and ACEA standards as well as various OEM specifications, emissions, and energy standards.
“ContiX Asia is also developing a Fully Synthetic Racing Formula engine oil to support their sponsorship tie ups with both the GXP GymPro street racing series in Thailand and our Unixx Race Team-TR Motorsport, competing in the higher profile Thailand Super Series.”
