Tech9 Returns to British GT with Oliver Bryant and Matt Harris

Thursday 22nd February 2007
Reigning FIA GT3 and three times British GT championship winning team Tech9 will return to challenge for the 2007 Avon Tyres British GT Championship, running a Porsche 997 GT3 for BRDC Rising Star Oliver Bryant and 2006 race winner Matt Harris.

Matt Harris, partnered by Piers Masarati, won the GT3 class at the final British GT race of 2007 at Silverstone last September, finishing 3rd overall in the 2-hour race. Double British GT class winner Oliver Bryant steps up from the GTC Class Team Aero Morgan Aero 8 in which he and Keith Ahlers impressed in 2006, finishing 4th overall in the 2006 British GTC Class.

"We are pleased to announce our return to British GT," said Tech9 Team Manager Piers Masarati. "Oliver Bryant and Matt Harris are both proven race winners in GT. Olley is one of the most complete drivers in British GT and Matt showed he has the pace in the 997 as we saw at Silverstone last year."

"Porsche have produced an update package for the car and Avon has produced a better tyre for the car this season and this should make the car right on the pace," Masarati continued. "British GT is looking extremely strong and we are looking forward to challenging for the British GT and FIA GT3 titles in 2007."
