Originally hailing from Gothenburg Sweden, driver Carl Rydquist built his career in European GT car racing and has made appearances and wins in some of the world\u2019s most famous racing events including the 24hrs of Nurburgring, 25hrs of Thunderhill, and the Zandvoort 500.\u00a0 Rydquist has his sights set on making a big impact on US soil going sideways with Formula Drift.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cOur Top 32 finish at Irwindale was due on large part to the support we have with Road Race Engineering.\u00a0 Their decades of experience really shines through on and off the track and we couldn\u2019t have asked for a better match.\u201d\u00a0 Carl Rydquist \u2013 Driver\/Team Owner \u2013 Rydquist Racing.<\/p>\n

\u201cRoad Race Engineering is excited to represent our partners in 2014 on the Formula Drift circuit and show the world what our capabilities are on the race track.\u00a0 This also gives us the opportunity to show our clientele how deep our experience is with different engine packages ranging from small displacement import motors to big displacement domestic V8\u2019s.\u201d\u00a0 Rossy Welch \u2013 Marketing Director, Road Race Engineering.<\/p>\n

Rossy Welch looks to further establish their organization as one of the premier Southern California facilities that produces some of the best professional level race cars as well as well rounded street driven performance vehicles.<\/p>\n

Road Race Engineering\u2019s president Mike Welch looks to apply his 25 years of motorsports experience to the Rydquist Racing and Berk Technology effort.\u00a0\u00a0 Welch is very enthusiastic about the newly forged partnership as the team evolves into an ever family of long time partners in the performance industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a perfect match up with Carl Rydquist and Bryan Berk as they already work closely with some of Road Race Engineering\u2019s already long standing partners.\u00a0 For over a decade we\u2019ve been very close to their partners ACT Clutch, AEM, Hankook Tire, Turbo by Garrett, and KW Suspension.\u00a0 Not only do we get to work together on projects using our in house Dynapak dyno, we are now able to get behind this joint effort in Formula Drift.\u201d\u00a0 Mike Welch \u2013 President, Road Race Engineering.<\/p>\n

The partnership between Berk Technology and Rydquist spans three years and has proven to be a potent combination.\u00a0 The pair looks to continue their formula for success in Formula Drift in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very fortunate to team up with such a solid organization.\u00a0 Road Race Engineering brings a lot of energy and talent to the program and after the Irwindale finals I can say that we are already off to a fantastic start.\u00a0 We are a sophomore team and we can only move straight up the ladder from here.\u00a0 2014 already looks like it\u2019s going to be a fantastic year for Berk Technology and our partners.\u201d\u00a0 Bryan Min \u2013 President, Berk Technology<\/p>\n
