AR Motors :Racing chance of a lifetime now available from ARM
Successful applicants will compete behind the wheel of one of ARM´s Porsche 997 GT3 Cup cars. Specifically designed for the race track, the GT3 Cup car delivers 400 hp and stunning performance. The driver would then be competing against some of the Middle East´s top drivers in the GTA class of the UAE GT Championship, which is devised along the lines of similar international GT racing.
ARM is offering drives for the UAE GT Championship meets at the Dubai Autodrome on 29th January, 19th March, 2nd April or 23rd April, as well as the race at Abu Dhabi´s brand new Yas Marina Circuit on 20th February. The packages, which can be tailored to suit each driver´s particular requirements, include three days of driving – a specially organised familiarization day, the race meeting practice session the day before the event, and the qualifying session and race itself.
“Arrive and Drive is perfect for aspiring racing drivers who do not have the time, facilities or technical expertise to run a car themselves, or who want to dip their toe in the water for the first time.” said Alex Renner, managing director of ARM. “This unique package has been specifically designed so that drivers simply need to arrive at the track and jump into the car. It can be seen as a one-off ‘chance of a lifetime´ experience, or as a trial for possible participation next season.”
The format of the GT Championship includes a compulsory 90-second pit stop during each 45 minute race, allowing for a driver change if desired. “Our package is geared to accommodate up to two drivers per car, allowing them to share this extraordinary experience,” added Renner.
Safety on the track is paramount, so all drivers need to hold a national race license, issued by the UAE Automobile and Touring Car Club. Once again, ARM can advise on and assist with this requirement. All on-ground support will be provided by the well-experienced ARM race team, while the car also has space to accommodate sponsorship logos.
ARM is currently providing track support to three teams, and six cars, in this season´s UAE GT Championship, consistently recording podium finishes. In addition to its successful motorsport ventures, the German-owned Dubai-based company also has many years´ experience in servicing, tuning and customising Porsche cars.

Alex Renner took his love of cars and his extensive experience in the automotive industry, both in Germany and the UAE to establish ARM, an organization with the goal of becoming the leading specialist in the Porsche cars in the region.
