QUAIFE WORK WITH NEW RACING SEAT

PHIL QUAIFE GETS 'REAL WITH ESSENTIAL'

Quaife Engineering backed Porsche driver ties a deal with Real Essential to lauch their new racing seat.

Ahead of Round 3 of the 2007/08 Battery Town Porsche GT3 Cup championship, held this weekend in Taupo, New Zealand, 21-year old Brit, Phil Quaife has secured a relationship with one of the UK's most exciting young motorsport company's  - Real Essential.

Having recently launched the website - www.realeassential.co.uk to coincide with the annual Autosport International show, held just last week, Real Essential, through their innovative race seat support systems, are looking to build on the success of the website's appeal, and continue to grab the attention of the global motorsport industry.

Before heading out to New Zealand, Quaife said, "Having met with the Real Essential directors late last month, I was immediately impressed by their innovative approach and design to improving the comfort, and support, required in a racing environment.  They are very hands-on, great to work with, and their experience, knowledge, and understanding of working with drivers from across all types of racing is outstanding.  They recognise the importance, and benefits of how drivers must feel entirely comfortable, and confident, which only makes my job that much more enjoyable. I'm really excited to be associated with such a young, enthusiastic company like Real Essential, and I can't wait to experience racing the new Porsche 997, with the Triple X team in Taupo."

Real Essential Director, Maxine Arnold, commented, "This is such a fantastic opportunity for us.  We have worked tirelessly over the last year, developing our range of new race seat products, so what a way to start 2008; partnering with one of our clients Triple X Motorsport, and with one of the UK's most promising young drivers!  Obviously we are also very proud to be associated with Quaife Engineering, a company with the high standard, recognition, and reputation and although it's a shame the Real Essential team can't be in Taupo to cheer Phil on personally, we wish him all the best, along with the entire Triple X Motorsport team."
