London, Aug. 31, 2012: Aero Tec Laboratories Ltd (ATL), suppliers of safety fuel bladder tanks to every current Formula 1 race team and a leading supplier to the defence dector, have joined forces by sponsoring the newly-created UK Armed Forces Race Bike team 'True Heroes Racing' (THR).

Formed in association with 'Afghan Heroes' (www.afghanheroes.org.uk), True Heroes Racing supports former serviceman - who have suffered some appalling injuries in the name of our nation's security - by using motorsport to bring a real difference to their lives and give them a renewed sense of purpose.

"All projects have to start somewhere and to do this I have formed a small race team of three injured servicemen, assisted by one able-bodied serviceman, with the aim of proving that these individuals can compete alongside their able-bodied counterparts at the highest levels; but instead of starting on four wheels, we are starting on two! We are working towards running one of the injured guys, who is a double amputee below the knee. If we can compete on two wheels, anything else is possible!" says Phil Spencer, THR Team Manager.

ATL Sales & Marketing Director, Kevin Molloy said: "It is an honour and a privilege to be able to assist these true heroes in helping them to achieve their dream. Fingers crossed - it is 'Frontline to Front Row' for the team this Saturday."

Everyone at ATL wishes True Heroes Racing the very best of luck with their first race this weekend at Castle Combe. If you or your company would like to sponsor True Heroes Racing, please contact the Team Manager, Phil Spencer.
