Spurred by their victorious collaboration at Sepang 12-hour Merdeka Millennium Endurance Race (MME) last year, Team Proton R3 and X1-R are joining forces again – this time at the inaugural Sepang 1000km in June which the team aimed to top Class 2. “We can confirmed that we are putting two entries – a Proton Neo R3 and a Proton Gen2 R3. We still finalizing the drivers’ list; but for sure, they would be led by Malaysia’s top saloon car driver and Proton R3 test driver Faidzil Alang,” said team coordinator Najmi Razak. Winner of the MME overall title in 2008 in a Proton R3 Lotus Exige 300RR with Tengku Djan Ley and Damien French of Australia, Faidzil won Class B last year in a Proton Neo R3; partnering former Proton Production Car Championship winner Mohd Hafizy Hafiz and Shafique Ali.
