Published: 14th January 2002
A sales facility for the Proton Satria GTi with Lotus ride and handling and other models is being created at Silverstone to support the Proton Racing Experience, which is expected to provide up to 30,000 drivers with race school tuition this year.
Operated by Octagon Motorsports, the Silverstone racing school will use a fleet of Satria GTi’s equipped with roll cages and safety equipment to give motorsport enthusiasts the unique experience of driving in the wheel tracks of today’s F1 stars.
The Proton Racing Experience was launched at the Autosport International
Show at the NEC last week by Paul O’Brien, Group Retail Director
