Caterham Academy - DPR motorsport services
Contact DPR motorsport to find out
how we can help novice racers who have signed up for the Caterham Academy.
We offer a fixed price Academy initial set-up together with a race-readiness service
check. We can also arrange a fitting for the Real Essential resin-bead
seat that offers additional safety and comfort. For taller drivers this
may be an essential requirement to ensure sufficient clearance between helmet
and roll-cage.Fixed price initial car set-up and race-readiness service checks
For novice drivers the most important aspect is to gain seat time in the car.
However, a badly set-up car will limit race performance and for on-track use the
build engineering needs to be of the highest standard to ensure
race-reliability.

Our flat floor Academy initial set-up costs £225* to include any platform
ring machining to obtain required ride height. Any parts including any fuel added for the set-up
will be charged if required.
Our set-up measures and adjusts (where required) all of the attributes
specified below:
- Ride height
- Front camber
- Front toe
- Rear camber
- Rear toe

Where a car has already been set-up the work will comprise a set-up check
followed by any required adjustments. In this case the charge will be
based on time taken and any parts fitted. After completion of the set-up
we provide you with a personalised set-up sheet to confirm the specific set-up
including driver weight together with advice as to the optimum fuel level for
race use.
Note: Critical settings can change with on-track use. We recommend that
front ride height is checked prior to race use. Use of the circuit scales
is advised to check car weight.
