Last summer, after racing Le Mans 24 Hours with Pegasus Racing, David Cheng announced that he would be founding DC Racing to run an LM P3 campaign in the Asian Le Mans Series with a Ligier JS P3.
Cheng, who won the Asian Le Mans Series in 2013 and 2014 with OAK Racing, has achieved his goal, winning the series with a round still left to run, following an excellent penultimate race that saw the team take pole position, bank the fastest lap and then cross the line in first place. The result provides ample cause for celebration: it is a second championship crown for driver Ho-Pin Tung, a third for David Cheng and a ticket to Le Mans for the team.
The full schedule for 2016 will be announced soon.
