How do you win a professional touring car race when you're down 500cc on the entire field? You're in a 1.5T Honda Civic FK7, lined up against a grid of 2.0T TCR-spec monsters. Now, what if you have a catastrophic failure in qualifying and have to start dead last (P21)?

You shouldn't be able to win. But we did.

At the CTCC China Touring Car Championship, the TTSPORT & YITRON team's 1.5T "Red-Eyed Demon" FK7, driven by Sun Zheng and Wang Wenbin, achieved the impossible. In a race of pure chaos, they proved that when you're outgunned on power, you win the race in the braking zones.

The "Red-Eyed Demon" Livery

This was the debut of our new "Red-Eyed Demon" livery. The aggressive red-and-white graffiti style, paired with the signature "red-eye" headlights, made it clear we weren't just there to compete—we were there to hunt.

The Setup: 1.5T vs. A 2.0T Field

The deck was stacked against us. The TCS class is for 2.0T TCR-spec cars. We were the only 1.5T car on the grid. In a 55-minute endurance race, we were outgunned on power, had smaller tires (less grip), and were at a severe disadvantage on the straights.

The Secret Weapon: Winning on the Brakes

When you can't win on the straights, you have to win on the brakes. The *only* way to make up time was to brake later, harder, and with more confidence than the 2.0T cars, lap after lap. Our car was equipped with our latest-gen, European-designed, TCR-spec monoblock forged calipers, rotors, and pads. They had to be flawless.

Disaster in Qualifying: Starting Dead Last

Before we even had a chance to set a time, disaster struck. On the warm-up lap, the steering rack failed, leaving the car with no steering feedback. The team scrambled. A replacement part was sourced, but it wasn't compatible with the race car's ECU. Our driver, Wang Wenbin, and the team's programmers had to *live-hack the ECU* in the pits, writing new code to force the incompatible part to work.

The cost was huge: we missed the *entire* qualifying session. We would be starting the race from P21. Dead last.

The Race: Chaos, 140°F Heat, and a Monsoon

Race day was pure chaos. The track surface temperature hit nearly 60°C (140°F)—a literal brake-killer. Then, halfway through, a sudden monsoon hit, turning the track into a river. The race was thrown into disarray with multiple wrecks and two safety car restarts.

This is where the lighter 1.5T car and our brake system became the ultimate weapons. While other cars struggled, our drivers had 100% confidence. The TTSPORT system provided *flawless, fade-free* performance in the extreme heat *and* the pouring rain. Our drivers could dive into corners and out-maneuver the more powerful 2.0T cars that were sliding all over the track.

The Result: From P21 to P1

From the back of the grid, our drivers put on a masterclass. They carved through the 2.0T field. In a race defined by chaos, the "Red-Eyed Demon" was a scalpel. We crossed the line to take the TCS Class Championship win.

This was more than a win; it was a validation of our engineering. It’s proof that a balanced chassis and a superior, reliable braking system will always beat raw power in a true driver's race.

Race-Proven Tech. Street-Ready Performance.

We don't just go racing for trophies. We go racing to torture-test our R&D. The same engineering, materials, and thermal management principles that survived this CTCC endurance race are built into every street-performance kit we sell.

The next stop: Ordos! We're taking this momentum and this giant-killer of a car to challenge for the next title.
