\nChesterfield, England \u00e2\u20ac\u201c The Valvoline Team USA Scholarship team has been busy testing this week in preparation for the seventh annual Nations Cup race Nov. 3 at Donington Park, England.
\nTeam members Jerry Nadeau, 27, and Tony Renna, 19, spent Tuesday, Oct. 22, at Silverstone, England, in a private test session of their two-loiter open-wheeled Formula Opel racers.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We had a really good test,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Nadeau. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153My speeds were comparable to what the pole speed was here at the last Formula Opel European Union Series race in August.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
The test session was the first time the teammates had worked together.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Tony is eager to learn from my experience in the Formula Opel Series,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Nadeau. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153He is good to work with, not to mention very talented. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m glad to have him as a partner.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
The drivers tested at Donington Park on Oct. 24. The open test session attracted more than 70 different racers from several classes of cars and the test was productive for both Nadeau and Renna.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153John Village Automotive has prepared two great cars for the Nations Cup,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Nadeau said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The competition will be tough, but Tony and I are confident we can be top contenders.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
