Tolman Motorsport race to third place with Ross Handling
When the competition is fierce and the tarmac brutal, one worn tyre can be the difference between first and last place for a motorsports race team, which is why Tolman Motorsports use our castors to ensure their wheels stay race-ready, even when off the track.
When the competition is fierce and the tarmac brutal, one worn tyre can be the difference between first and last place for a motorsports race team, which is why Tolman Motorsports use our castors to ensure their wheels stay race-ready, even when off the track.
Tolman Motorsports’ Project Manager, Sarah Robson explains, “Our race cars are put onto a series of castor-mounted skates, which are used to jack the car up and keep the tyres off the ground. The skates enable it to be turned in the small space without disrupting the active pit lane.”
Tolman needed strong, durable castors to be attached to their skates and support the car while adjustments were made. They began their search for high quality castors online, where they came across Ross Handling.
Sarah Robson: “Ross looked to be a great company with great reviews, selling quality products for a good price. The staff were very friendly and helped us to find the perfect solution for our needs; twelve swivel bolt rigid and braked castors”.
They recently entered the Brands Hatch round of the GT4 European Series Northern Cup with their McLaren 570s GT4, where our castors were used to push the car in, around and outside of the garage, and helped Tolman achieve a position of third place out of 30 contenders.
Sarah Robson concludes, “We would definitely recommend Ross Handling and their products. We were given excellent customer service and a top quality, durable product – they were everything they promised to be.”
Later this year Tolman Motorsports will be competing in the renowned British GT Championship, along with our winning wheels. We look forward to seeing how they get on!
