Jungle Fever Racing

After the first season, which was really a test only, Jungle Fever Racing quickly started working on the car for the 1997/98 season. With an early deal with Mitsubishi Motors, there was enough time to build the new car around the new engine.

The bodywork was tested in our windtunnel and the results of these tests look very promising for the next races. We need to run some more tests on the car to get enough data to improve the car even further, this is also very important for the car of the next season. These test are planned in the next couple of weeks, with these results we may be able to make the car more stable and reliable.

The first test took place at Montreal, where no major problems were detected.
