WABCO and Truck Race Team Allgäuer Continue Partnership in 2008
Team Allgäuer relies on WABCO’s competitive braking technology
WABCO and Truck Race Team Allgäuer renewed their successful partnership in the European Truck Racing Championship. WABCO has supported the team of European Truck Champion Egon Allgäuer since 2001 by supplying state-of-the-art braking technology and has significantly improved the competitiveness of Team Allgäuer’s race trucks.
“Reliable high performance braking technology is crucial for a team’s success on the racetrack”, says Egon Allgäuer. WABCO is well prepared for this challenge and equips the racing trucks of Team Allgäuer with anti-lock braking systems and the patented new generation of single piston Air Disc Brakes NG, with the best weight/ performance ratio for heavy trucks.
For the 2008 truck racing season, Allgäuer welcomes Russian driver Mikhail Konovalov as its new team member. “WABCO supports this decision as Mikhail Konovalov is a talented truck pilot and will contribute to the success of Truck Race Team Allgäuer. For WABCO, Konovalov’s commitment offers an opportunity to increase the company’s visibility and brand awareness in the important Russian market,” says Harald Kaess
