From Star Mazda Championship
In the first major upgrade of the Star Mazda 'Pro Car' since its introduction five years ago, Star Race Cars announced that a package of mechanical and software upgrades will be available for the 2009 season. All upgrades are optional, not mandatory and are designed to fit all Star Mazda 'Pro Series' race cars built since 2004. The upgrades, including new wings, shock absorbers and suspension rockers, are designed to increase the car's aerodynamic efficiency and top speed while improving engine cooling; in addition, it will be easier for drivers and their engineers to arrive at the best setup for each track. The cumulative effect of the upgrades will be to increase both top speed and cornering speed, reduce maintenance costs and enhance the mechanical reliability of what is arguably already one of the most dependable, costeffective open-wheel cars in competition today. Teams competing in the Star Mazda Championshipwill debuted their newly-revised cars - and newly-signed drivers - at the ALMS/Star Mazda test at Sebring on January 27 - 28.
