Fredrik Larsson joins WestCoast Racing in the TTA Championship

Fredrik Larsson joins WestCoast Racing as one of the teams three confirmed drivers in the newly formed TTA championship this season. The former Indy Lights and Carrera Cup driver looks forward to a new challenge.
”I’m very excited and this is something I’ve worked towards the whoel winter to realize,” Fredrik says.”It’s a new challenge where I will face the best racing drivers in Sweden and it’s a challenge I’m really looking forward to. I will face it with a high ambition, I will be fighting at the top. There are a lot of very quick drivers in the championship and it will be very important to get everything perfect to be able to fight at the very top.”
TTA has been a goal for Fredrik ever since the championship was formed and formally launched last autumn.
”I wanted to drive a complete championship in Sweden again and if I would do that I wanted to drive against the best and toughest competition and that competition is in TTA. I raced against Richard Göransson many, many years ago and drivers such as Fredrik Ekblom, Robert Dahlgren and Thed Björk amongst many others I have never raced against before. Now I have the opportunity to race them all and that is a huge motivational factor. TTA has felt like the right choice from the beginning. Everyone will have equal opportunity and it will be up to the team and drivers to get it together and that is very important.”
Fredrik is yet to drive the new TTA-car but his expectations are high.
”From what I’ve seen and heard it’s a very challenging, yet fun, car to drive and it’s a proper race car that respons to changes and what you do and a car you can really push. It will be a lot of fun to start working on the car together with the team to extract everything from it. I will have two very quick and fast team mates in Richard Göransson and Martin Öhlin and a fantastic team behind us in WestCoast Racing. A key to success will be how we all can work together to get to know the car and develop it. I’m really pumped up for this!”
Team manager Dick Jönsson Wigroth is delighted to have Fredrik Larsson join the teams TTA line-up and is proud to already have three drivers confirmed just 1,5 months into the new year.
”It’s fantastic that Fredrik Larsson will be driving our third TTA-car and that we already have been able to confirm Richard, Martin and Fredrik as our three drivers,” Dick says. ”After having know each other for many years Fredrik and I could start working together last year in the Swedish GT-programme and it was natural to continue that cooperation. Now we have yet another of the fastest Swedish drivers confirmed as a driver for WestCoast Racing BMW Dealer Team. Fredrik Larsson really strengthens not only the team but the TTA-grid and this will definitely be a tough and fun season.”
