Porsche GB 992 GT3 Launch Support in Bedford | Hometyre Mobile Tyre Fitting
Whilst Covid-19 has been ever present at our doors, car manufacturers have been expanding their portfolios with new concept cars and incredible developments - and have started demonstrating & testing new models. April 2021 saw Porsche inviting the motoring press and multiple VIPs to test their latest generation Porsche 992 GT3 Cup. An evolution in the already hard core GT3 line up and 300k worth of motor car!
And who do Porsche call when they need expert trackside support and tyre changing capabilities during the course of the event.....?
Our local technician, James, had the pleasure of regularly replacing the tyres on this car throughout the four day showcase held at the Bedford Autodrome. Working alongside Top Gear's Chris Harris and other well known motoring press and key Porsche clients, this evolution Porsche was seriously put through it's paces on track. Fitted with Michelin Cup2 performance tyres, the manufacturer needed confident handling of the 315/30R21 rears and careful maintenance of pressure settings for each stint on track - all to ensure the optimum driving experience.
Our expert remained on site throughout, replacing tyres at regular intervals each day - all from the professionally equipped Hometyre mobile tyre replacement vehicle and gaining some admiring views at the same time - despite the exulted company!

Much like its predecessor series of GT3, this one is also equipped with the single spindle F1™ style wheel nut. Hometyre service vehicles have the equipment and specific torque wrench required to remove and replace tyres on vehicles fitted with this system. Read all about this on this blog here!
Hometyre service vehicles are a regular sight at many other specialist track day support events too, including the Goodwood Festival of Speed and Goodwood Revival (which can be seen here) as well as providing track side assistance at Castle Donnington and other locations throughout the UK.
