Two of the fastest and most successful cars early on in the 2007 Cooper Tires Presents The Champ Car Atlantic Championship Powered by Mazda have been found to be in full compliance with series-specified rules and regulations.
After completion of last Sunday’s Fast Trac 100 Atlantic race at the Grand Prix of Houston, Champ Car Atlantic officials impounded both the #6 Sierra Sierra Enterprises ProWorks car driven this season by Raphael Matos and the #3 Red Bull Team Forsythe Red Bull/INDECK car piloted by rookie Robert Wickens.
Both Mazda-Cosworth/Swift/Cooper machines were transported from Houston to Champ Car headquarters in Indianapolis where each car underwent a complete examination. Once the cars were disassembled, team members were asked to leave as Atlantic officials worked through an extensive process. Both cars were found to meet the standards of 2007 Atlantic rules and regulations for competition and the vehicles were released to the teams on Thursday afternoon.
