Litespeed F3 is a racing team that has over 25 years of race experience at all levels up to and including
Formula 1 andFormula 3 . It specialises in driver training to help achieve and maintain competitive performance and maximize a driver's potential, whether they are new to F3 or seasoned professionals.The car
Litespeed F3’s SLC R1 racing car was born in 2005 from a pure engineering base with no compromises and delivered by the ATR Group, which was specifically responsible for the development and manufacturing of the Porsche Carrera GT, the Ferrari Enzo, and the Bugatti Veyron.
In 2006, the SLC R1 underwent a full aero upgrade, which produced good results particularly on high-speed tracks such as
Nürburgring in Germany, where it attained pole position. By having autonomy on suspension geometry and layout, the Litespeed R1 also has a slow-speed cornering advantage due to its set-up capabilities.In 2007, the car did not race and the car and design/copyright was acquired by Litespeed F3 owners Nino Singh Judge and Steve Kenchington . The car was converted from an Opel to Honda engine over the winter and early part of 2008.
It made its race debut at Snetterton,Norfolk in June 2008 and despite no testing was pretty much on the pace driven by Callum Macleod but suffered expected teething problems.On only its second outing at Brands Hatch,Kent the car finished 2nd driven by Jonathan Legris. This was the breakthrough the Litespeed F3 team were looking for and now hope for a win by the end of 2008 and for a Championship victory in 2009.
