| Sibsport planned to enter the BTCC for a full season in 2007, running Gareth Howells 2006 ex-Team Dynamics Honda Integra. Simon Blanckley is the owner / driver who has formed the team.
The campaign was funded almost entirely by Blanckley who has even sold his house to realise his ambition of racing in top-level touring cars!
The Team manager for is Graham Hathaway, a very well known and respected figure in the motorsport industry. Graham Hathaway Engineering (GHE) will be preparing the Integra with technical support from Team Dynamics.
GHE last entered the BTCC exactly a decade ago when he prepared a Honda Accord for Robb Gravett, who took the Total Independents’ Cup title that year. Ironically, GHE ran exactly the same Honda Accord for Simon Blanckley last season in the Euro Saloons Championship.
Blanckley put in some strong performances, for someone
without a massive amount of experience in top level racing. Having realised his dream of competing in the BTCC,
the car was sold onto Robertshaw Racing.
