Goodwood Festival Of Speed litchfield, Newsletter, Nissan GTR
June 27, 2012 by litchfield

We are delighted to have been invited to attend the Goodwood Festival of Speed with Michelin this year. Over the course of the 4 day event both Dan and I will be available to answer questions about the new Michelin tyres and any of the GTR servicing or tuning options we can offer. On the stand will be our LM900 GTR demonstrator which is now sporting its Matt Silver wrap along with a host of performance upgrades.

Below is the press release that is being circulated from their marketing department about the Michelin stand and our involvement.
Litchfield to attend Goodwood Festival of Speed on Michelin Stand
Litchfield are no strangers to rubbing shoulders with the supercar elite, but even by their high standards, the co-stars alongside their highly-tuned Nissan GT-R on the Michelin stand at the Goodwood Festival of Speed will take some beating.
As technical partners to the French manufacturer, Litchfield has relied on the prodigious grip of the Michelin Pilot Sport tyres to tame the considerable torque and lateral forces generated by its 900 bhp Supercar demonstrator. Showcasing the firm’s unparalleled talents in tuning and refining Nissan’s affordable hypercar, Litchfield’s GT-R may not be the most expensive vehicle on the stand, but it’s certainly one of the fastest and most capable.
This is a fact made even more impressive when you examine what will be parked alongside; the Koenigsegg Agera R (which boasts the accolade of being the world’s fastest accelerating car), The Gumpert Apollo, and Weissmann MF3 and an Alpina B3 GT3. Commenting on his company’s attendance at the UK’s premier automotive festival, Litchfield Managing Director Iain Litchfield said, “We are delighted to be a part of Michlin’s impressive display at this year’s event and we’re very proud to be offer these tyres as the upgrade on all of our high performance packages. Having tested the new Pilot Sport against comparable competitors at the Nurburgring, we have established that they offer peerless performance in all weather conditions, improving lap times, car control and driver feedback”.
