Federal motorsport tyres accredited by CAMS

Federal's FZ-201 and FZ-202 semi slick R Spec tyres have been approved for production car racing in Australia by The Confederation of Australian Motorsport (CAMS). Federal Tires Motorsport project manager, Taz Yeh said that to have the Federal brand approved for fitment at national level is “an honour” for a company only recently involved in motorsport. The company believes CAMS approval – linked to the FIA – is key to the brand taking the FZ-201 and FZ-202 to other territories as the brand expands internationally its motorsport involvement.

Federal also said that it is planning a marketing campaign to promote, compliment and support the brand and its products, and to nurture potential young drivers to eventually show their skills on the world stage. It also said that plans to increase the profile of the AMC series have resulted in Federal committing to support Conroy Motorsports Honda for 2012, aiming to reproduce its success as Class D Champions in the 2011 Endurance National Series.
