Since the formation of Rumblestrip Racing the team have been working on preparing a car to race in the final four rounds of the 2006 Dunlop Tuscan Challenge season.
Initially a deal had been struck to hire ‘Topless Taz’ from Black Cat Racing. However following a mechanical report from Richard and Colin of Dulford Automotive (responsible for vehicle build and preparation within the team), it was decided that it might be more cost effective for the team to acquire its own vehicle. This decision was reinforced by the fact that time was proving to be a stumbling block in preparing ‘Taz’ for the next round.
With a small budget and very little time, the team had to refocus its efforts on finding a race ready car.
The first port of call was of course the classified section of PistonHeads.
As luck would have it, Steve Beck was trying to offload his Tasmin 280I Coupe. The car is somewhat of a thoroughbred having already proved itself in very successful seasons of the Tasmin Challenge through 2000-2004.
