A New Year at F1 Hoverpod Racing

F1 Hoverpod® Racing Ltd.
This is simple look back at the year of F1 Hoverpod® Ltd and a reminder of the progress and developments that have been made and confirmed to be used in the new Manx GT Craft.
The New propeller/fan blade which has caused so much interest is presently under development and will be shown in the New Year. The key development and areas of challenge to F1 Hoverpod® Manufacture Ltd were a reduction in noise, an increase in air flow and a stronger more durable blade that was fit for purpose and placed safety at the forefront and without compromise.
The second development that was confirmed was the new fuel and fuel system. Both of which were developed with the help and support of a world leader in the area of fuel technology. This called for a new type of fuel tank which was a major issue when considering the challenges of racing. The solution was as always “no compromise” and the very best in the world was the answer. A product which meets all the standards of European legislation for vehicle fuel storage in vehicles. Once again, this will be displayed for the public in the new year on the “Manx GT”.
Finally, the “All New Manx GT” hull technology that has caused such a stir. This has been developed with the help of the Institute of Materials & Mining who as we all know are the world leader in the field of composite technology. The breakthrough in the durability and reduction in wear has astonished the very best.
Finally, I wish to send out a message of thanks to all our true supporters, sponsors and partners who have seen us through a difficult year. A very special thanks to those who have sent such good comments through the blogs and web sites of support which has been very encouraging.
This leaves me with one final task. To Wish You All A Very Happy New Year for 2010 from all the team at F1 Hoverpod® Ltd.

Team Manager.

All the Very Best from F1 Hoverpod Racing

25th December 2009

This announcement is for all of our supporters who have followed our blogs and postings throughout the year. The wonderful support shown by you all through this very testing year has been a major encouragement to all our team members and justifies why their loyalty and faith in the direction we are following is simply second to none.
We are aware of the very damaging postings which appear on a frequent basis, we are also aware that the professionals who support our business never pay attention to idle gossip. What I did promise was that in 2010 it would be addressed, and you can be assured this will be the case later on in the year.
I do want to let you know that we have several new sites which might be of interest and can be found at the following:
1. www.f1-hp.co.uk
2. www.f1-hoverpodracing.co.uk

All it leaves me to do is wish you all “A Very Merry Christmas” from All of The Team at F1 Hoverpod®

All the Very Best.

20th December 2009
It’s less than a week to go before the jingle of Santa and his sledge arrives and a good time to reflect upon a year of good old fashioned honest hard work and the achievements we have made at F1 Hoverpod® Ltd.
Much interest has been shown in the race clubs and major support from one of the world leaders in the Brewery Industry, the details are to remain private at this stage but I’m sure you will all be delighted at the collaboration to which complements & benefits both parties.

The manufacture of the “Manx GT” has been met with a glint of surprise to many supporters, the feeling was that we were making a modified version of a home made craft not too dissimilar to ones already being sold on the market place. You can imagine their Surprise & Reaction which has become the International feeling that most if not all of the comments on the internet are without foundation and more importantly are simply un professional and could be construed as Liable. Lets see what 2010 brings and what (if any) Reaction is forthcoming when the final showing of the product is revealed some time in the new year.

To those who have offered comments based upon fact, the census of opinion seems to be that a major Failure to a particular Reaction may be forthcoming.


From all the Team at F1 Hoverpod® Ltd, We Wish You All A Very Merry Christmas.

Summer News Report & Additions

Mid July Up –Date
Many new things happening this month which I feel some are important to share and some are less than boring. However, you will be interested to hear that the important part of our expansion program has now started work. It is the Business Development Manual to which documents every aspect of how to run and manage the F1 Hoverpod® Racing clubs on a daily basis. In many instances it is this very important issue which either makes or breaks the business, so as you can imagine, we have once again called in the Worlds Largest Business Manual Writers who’s details we provide on our web site.
Over the following week, we will be strengthening our relationship with UKTI who have supported us with overseas information and advice as well as building on our already good relationship with the new technology suppliers of “Self heal polymers” which we are supporting the research in these areas. Due to confidentiality and the secrecy surrounding this research, I am unable to say who the working partner is in this instance, until confirmation to do so.
The new technology and design surrounding the Hoverpod® propeller blade has been sanctioned and I feel sure that this will cause a major stir when we release the product for the enthusiast and hobbyist to buy over the counter. I would recommend you keep watching the blogs and sites for information relating to this. The feedback from Hovercraft pilots is very encouraging with comments such as “it’s about time we had a safe blade at last” and “I have had several blades snap at high speed which was very scary when I was out in a vulnerable location”.
Finally, a big encouragement for the England Cricket Team and please bring home the ashes.

Driven by Passion.

Announcement of Journal Publication

July up date.
Following up on last Month’s posting, we have some major announcements in the shadows and when permission has been granted to share with you the information, I will make it available for you all to comment upon.

This week we have one announcement which will help silence the skeptics amongst the Hovercraft fraternity who still assume that gossip is the way forward and that fact is something that is rarely if ever in their world.

I recommend to everyone to view the Journal produced by the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining Exchange which can be found at http://www.iom3.org/ and who used the words “We are compiling some case histories of successful Spark Awards and yours came to the top of the list” and requested permission to use F1 Hoverpod Racing as it’s number one example of how a Business can develop and succeed in a recession. It is a great honor and privilege to have those comments from such a prestigious institution and who’s reputation is without question. The Institute who are also supported by their colleagues at the Royal College of Art & Design and can be found at http://www.rca.ac.uk/ chose F1 Hoverpod Racing to support with it’s expertise in composite technology and as a result enabled F1 Hoverpod to win the spark award and prize of £5,000.00 which was invested in developing new designs and materials to be used in the Hoverpod manufacture process.

You can now also follow our daily work routine and developments as they happen on "Twitter", you can check us out at www.twitter.com/f1hoverpod

Our supporters can now keep appraised via our www.myspace.com/f1hoverpodracing site, where you are welcomed and encouraged to post information, pictures and comments on this site.

Keep watching the Blogs as we have some more major events and announcements to post shortly and we are now welcoming new forum members at www.f1hoverpodracing/forum

Keep the support and spirit of enterprise moving forward.
