Close to SRC and in front of all the public that is following us, in this brief report, we have the pleasure of talking a little about our test drivers.
Little by little, since 2018, we have been forming a new team of test drivers for SRC. Although we mentioned that back in 2012, in the middle of the development of the PEUGEOT 205 T16 EVO1, we had the MR RACING SLOT team where José Manuel Fernández Álvarez, Javier Diaz Suarez and Sergio Moro Robledo were the three drivers we counted on for that development. They were not only loyal to the OSC brand at that time, but they also maintained their commitment to do everything possible to be by our side.
That experience had been very important for all of us for many reasons. The clearest of these reasons was that we were launching our first SLOT model as a manufacturer in the sector. Unity is very important between people and that is what makes this work or task important. Those of us who are friends unite even more because we work seriously, with special care and with a professionalism that is shared at every moment of the tests.
Well, after 6 years we have taken up this pending matter again. To do this, as project manager at SRC 2.0 EVO, I decided to form a team again to have efficient external collaboration in order to improve in many aspects the products being developed by the company for use in competition. Personally, I have always valued collaboration in this type of development because it creates a very important link between users and the brand. For us, a test pilot is a person who exhibits our products in competitions because he trusts our products and selflessly values us.
For us, there will always be one phrase that stands out because confidence has to shine. That phrase is:
Always counting on our faithful arm in the competition…
The dynamic is that at SRC we have a group of people from different countries who test our parts, prototypes, cars, mechanical developments, etc. Little by little we have been developing certain products with them to improve and become a brand that is popular with the competition. From the beginning, we have placed our trust in the group because they have shown that they work as ambassadors for our brand wherever they go, wherever they go, whether it is in one modality or another.
In 2019 we went through certain levels of difficulty that we gradually overcame thanks to them. A “Test Driver” becomes a friend, with a tremendous affinity with the brand and who demonstrates what he really has in his hands on and off the track.
The Circuit competitions “on speed track” were absent in the SRC lists and now due to many of them and the CLUBS that were part of the project we have entered the classifications.
Simply by having a mechanically renewed product for fun on the track, we have managed to reach several continents. The task is not easy with a product as simple as the one we had modified. The truth is that the PORSCHE 914/6GT had gone from a static state to a dynamic state of excellent level on the circuits of many countries.
RallySlot competitions had a name. In this category, many of the drivers from the country where the brand resides were awarding product levels based on their results in the races. In the “classic and historic” category, we were consolidating ourselves as a valued brand because people gave a rating to our cars taken from the platform and the ballot box, placing the car on the track and commenting that they were ready to enjoy it.
This beloved group of people, where today we are united mainly by friendship, has for SRC the important value of a person of trust, because any piece from our workshops, our factory and our warehouse passes through their hands to always be united to the best SRC work. Together, with all of them, we always think that what we can offer the sector is something that really works.
Thank you very much for being by our side and above all for trusting in what we do.
The passion we have for this hobby increases by working with you.
You are exceptional!
