CHP Motorsport
In his second year in the iconic Caterham 7 racecar, CHP Consulting supports consultant Phil Haworth in his challenge for the 2008 Motorsport News Caterham Roadsport Championship title.
Caterham Roadsport
The works-supported Caterham Roadsport Championship is contested over 14 rounds, with two 20-minute sprint races at each event.
Boasting a strong grid of over 30 identical cars running Avon CR500 control tyres, the racing is always intense and very close; with the difference between winning and losing often only a couple of thousandths of a second.
The Caterham 7
The legendary Caterham 7 has been through many incarnations since its inception in 1957 by Colin Chapman. The model raced by Phil Haworth is the Roadsport B-spec race car, powered by a 120bhp 1.6 litre K-series engine.
Weighing in at around 500kg and with front and rear anti-roll bars, Bilstein dampers and narrow track front suspension fitted, the car handles brilliantly, sitting on Avon CR500 race tyres.
Championship regulations stipulate that all of the cars must be capable of being registered on the road and, point to point, it is simply one of the fastest cars around.
