Meet the Achilles Radial Team & See What Makes Them Run

Posted by: on

The Achilles Radial team released the following video yesterday giving a brief insight into their FD US Team and Bridges Racing. I think for a small clip it gives a great insight on what this team feels is important and necessary to run such a successful program with not only one but three(I believe it is 3 as I know they have been helping Dean Kearney for sure, but I have seen them with Walker Wilkerson’s car in the pits but I think that is due to the Achilles Sponsorship mainly) cars to run per event. I also think it’s great to show the team and how they feel about the program and drivers and not just focus on the drivers. Great small video.

Odi Bakchis signs Nexen Tires as Title Sponsor in 2013

Posted by: on

It looks like after a rough end to his second year in Formula D Odi Bakchis has some great news. It looks like M7 Japan is out as his title sponsor and Nexen Tires has stepped up to be the title sponsor for his car in 2013. Many followed Odi’s struggle after wrecking his car at Formula D Las Vegas Practice and trying to race to get a vehicle ready for the top 32. He did, but in the end was knocked out by Robbie Nishida in the first round. He then ended up missing Irwindale and still finished in 16th in the season. Hopefully this new partnership will be enough to give Odi the edge to throw it in further, faster and harder this season and get a podium.
