EUROTECH RACING

Base: Tamworth, Shropshire Team principal: Jeff Smith Car: Honda Civic Type R Jeff Smith’s Eurotech Racing team has upgraded to the latest kit for 2016 with a brace of Honda Civic Type Rs (still with Swindon engines though) and there is optimism within the team. Both Smith and team-mate Depper were capable of springing surprises on occasion last season – and there was no happier a team when they did – but both men lack a little consistency. With better cars, that could come.
