Chevrolet Announces the Signing of Star Drivers
Hot of the heels of the news Chevrolet has secured last season's pre-season standout
@FutureF1 for the season, Chevrolet has followed up the big news by announcing the signing of two key driver's, Russian Roulette Racing's
@NW48 and
@Timlour, amidst rumours they were set to jump ship to Japanese marquee, Nissan, who just happen to run a Nissan GT-R GT500 in the GTPlanet Endurance Series. While the move came as no surprise to some,
@NW48 says they seriously considered an offer from Nissan, "We were really close to going to Nissan. They tabled us a really good offer that for some would be to good to refuse. Corvette looked after us really well in the first season, leading us to multiple crowns, including the overall title". Russian Roulette Racing has it's eyes firmly set on defending it's team title, and helping Chevrolet to the Group A Manufacturer's title yet again.
Also confirmed at that event was that
@NW48 would run the #1 after securing the Overall title last season, and run in his traditional Black Amethyst body colour and Matte Black rims and rear wing.
@Timlour will run the #77, with his traditional Gun metal body colour and Black Amethyst rear wing. Russian Roulette Racing has also scheduled a press conference for the 10th of July were they are expected to deliver more news on this subject.
