CPL's Guy Chamberlain took 1st place at Round 5 of the HKS Drag Series on Sunday 4th October with a 10.4 second pass in the final. This win gave Guy 1st place in the 2009 championship and CPL's Neil Knight took 2nd place in the championship, giving a repeat of the 2008 results. Congratulations to Guy and Neil and also to CPL's Paul Creswell who again ran 11.6 yesterday, backing up his previous result from Shakespeare County a couple of weeks ago. Paul has consistently run 1.6 second 60 foot times this year which is all the more impressive given Paul's car has just CPL turbo kit on a stock engine.

Today it was National Finals at Santa Pod, and CPL's Guy Chamberlain entered to test the car out before next weeks Jap Show event.  At this event the racers have to "dial in" a predicted time and get as close to this time as they can in order to qualify for a position for the racing on Sunday.  For his final qualifying pass of today Guy dialled in 10.00 and managed to run 10.05 breaking his previous European record of 10.08.

Well done to Guy and big thanks to Neil and Stef for helping out with the car and on the line all day. 

New CPL Racing Honda Civic Type R FN2 Cold Air Intake

CPL Racing is pleased to announce the release of their long awaited cold air intake for the FN2 model of Civic.  This intake has been over 18 months in development, to ensure optimal power gains throughout the rev range.   Made in-house by CPL, this intake system is not like other cold air intake systems available on the market, which are merely intake pipes that “fit” into the engine bay.  It has been designed, tested and improved and re-tested to perfection, and we are confident that no other intake system will be able to improve on the optimal power gains CPL have achieved.

·         Suitable for either left or right hand drive vehicles

·         Supplied with illustrated fitting instructions

·         Comes complete with battery relocation kit

·         High quality components and construction

·         Impressive power gains

·         Manufactured here in our workshop in the UK

Neil Knight has won round 4 of the HKS Drag Series, making this the second win of the season.  Neil has run consistently well and demonstrated some excellent driving skills in his stock engined Jackson Racing Supercharged Civic. 

Paul Cresswell, another CPL driver had some bad luck with a pipe blowing off in qualifying, and was marginally pipped to the post in the eliminations, but a great drive non-the-less, as the other car had around 200 bhp more than Paul's.  Paul is running a CPL turbo on stock-engined Civic.

Guy ran consistent 10.2s over the weekend and also a 10.18.  In the eliminations he came up against Neil but his gearbox case broke half-way through the run.  

Neil is now leading the championship, with Guy in second place.  The final round takes place in October.
