OXFORD - Race and rally licence holders ordering a ThermoHold® ceramic thermal barrier coating from Zircotec during National Motorsport Week will receive a substantial 20 percent off of the retail price. The offer, in support of National Motorsport Week, will enable motorsport participants at all levels to enjoy the safety, performance and reliability benefits of managing heat in a competition car at a significantly lower price.

"National Motorsport Week exists to highlight the UK's importance in all areas of international motor sport," says Zircotec sales director Peter Whyman. "We wanted to make our own contribution by offering something to those taking part in motorsport, at whatever discipline they compete." Research suggests that motorsport contributes £6billion to the UK economy each year and employs over 40,000 skilled people. In the UK there are 32,000 competition licence holders.

Any motorsport competitor wishing to take up the offer simply needs to quote their licence number when ordering a coating for any component. "The coating can be used to manage underbonnet heat and can be applied to turbos, exhausts, heat shields, body panels to solve heat-related safety and durability issues as well as enhancing car and driver performance," adds Whyman. "With our coatings used on everything from National Hot Rods and Touring Cars through to Classic Motorbikes and Formula One, many competitors can benefit from the advantages it provides with the added bonus of a lower price.
