In 1889, if you had told John Boyd Dunlop
that his products would reach the level of success they have today, he probably
would have laughed at you.
Really, what an amazing journey it has been
for them over the century!
John Dunlop, a visionary himself, changed
the entire face of the tyre industry by introducing pneumatic tyres. And thus,
because of innovations like these, they have become the global powerhouse of tyre manufacturing.
Moreover, when people ask about their
supremacy, you have to mention the amazing…
…..Fort
Dunlop
In Birmingham, the birthplace of Dunlop, a
motorsport manufacturing started its operation of producing specialised car
tyres. It was one of a kind unit. And, face it: in 1891 it was virtually
unthinkable!
What was amazing about this operational
unit is that they didn’t stop at producing tyres for only vintage and passenger
cars. They also churned out an astonishing 300,000 racing tyres annually. Amazing right!
But, one can guess that your thirst for the
reason of purchasing a Dunlop tyre is not over. So, here are some more reasons
or excuses, whichever you prefer:
·
If you want a tie-up with the
British Touring Car Championship and the V8 Championship, you’ve got to be
special. Since both of these prestigious tournaments agree that that Dunlop is
good enough, then they must surely have a certain level of legitimacy, right?
·
They are spread across
continents and have millions of satisfied users. Clearly a result of the
performance they deliver.
·
Most of you must have heard
about the European Le Mans endurance races. Not only do models similar to cheap
tyres at Gilgal Tyres dominate these events, but they also use these events to
prove their extreme durability.
That’s
guts for you right there!
·
Dunlop GP Racer D209 is the
official tyre sponsor of R&G Racing GSX-R Trophy.
You might be wondering why? So, let us see
the reason.
What
makes Dunlop GP Racer D209 so unique?
Designed to blaze racing tracks around the
world, they go with almost any sports bike in the world. Whether it’s raining
or you are on muddy terrain, these tyres make sure you get an excellent grip in
all kinds of situations.
Let’s shift our attention to other events
that have been happening over the years, concerning Dunlop tyres in Manchester, shall we?
Drivers
choosing Dunlop’s softer version in Race1
According to current news, Race3 has been
put on hold for the Diamond Double race. The reason, according to press reports
is that the BTCC intends on celebrating the 60th anniversary of the
prestigious event.
Thus, the remaining two races, Race1 and
Race2 will attract the attention of racing enthusiasts around the world. The
two best performers of the event, Tom Ingram and Brett Smith, will both be
using Dunlop’s soft tyres to make full use of the conditions in the morning.
So,
good luck to both of them!
What you can do is visit a garage like Gilgal Tyres. They have an extensive
collection of tyres that will blow your mind.
