We kicked 2020 off with an exciting announcement about a new arrival to the Tegiwa fast fleet. With guesses as to what the new car might be, plenty of you guessed correctly as we unveiled our BMW M4 GT4<\/strong>.<\/p>\n We then got ready for the biggest event in the UK calendar, Autosport International<\/strong><\/a>. With a bigger stand than ever before and even more products on display, Autosport<\/strong> was, and still is one of the best platforms for us to meet you guys and make plenty of new contacts in the industry.<\/p>\n The winter is the perfect time for many of us to begin a new project, and that was also the case at Tegiwa too. Two of the chaps from the office, Mike and Dave, set about taking a stock EP3 and building it into a full-blown Type R Trophy<\/strong><\/a> car. With many bloodied knuckles and cold nights ahead, the guys documented their progress via the blog for all to see.<\/p>\n January also saw the arrival of no less than 5 new brands, with big names such as AP Racing<\/strong><\/a> and OZ wheels<\/strong><\/a> making their way onto the website.<\/p>\n By this point of the year, we were still making progress with our NSX<\/strong><\/a> as we were expecting to go racing as normal before the global pandemic threw a spanner in the works. Legendary Honda tuner, Jesse Halford from J.Cal ECU calibration<\/strong><\/a>, had put some hours into getting our NSX map just right ahead of our first shakedown of the year. We were treated to some awesome flames out the back of the K24 powered NSX and couldn\u2019t wait to hit the track!<\/p>\n We also added an array of new brands to our website from the likes of King Bearings<\/strong><\/a>, Concaver wheels<\/strong><\/a> and renowned drivetrain specialist, Competition Clutch<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n The most turbulent month of the year saw Covid-19 hit in full force as the UK and many other parts of the world went into lockdown. Tegiwa HQ remained open for online business but we saw the doors to our shop shut. Many of our staff packed up their PC\u2019s and worked from the comfort of their home, whilst staff that weren\u2019t able to work from home stayed on site.<\/p>\n It wasn\u2019t all doom and gloom though as we revealed the M4 GT4\u2019s new look for the upcoming British GT<\/strong> season. Not that we knew it was going to go ahead at the time, albeit with a revised calendar.<\/p>\n Knowing that much of the motorsport season had been cancelled we jumped into the world of sim racing, listing brands such as Trak Racer<\/strong><\/a> and Thrustmaster<\/strong><\/a>. Straight away it proved to be a popular hit amongst you guys, with many people turning to the world of virtual racing to satisfy their love of motorsport.<\/p>\n We also began our weekly mega deal offers with our very first deal being 20% off in stock Autobrite<\/a><\/strong>. This was a great way to get fantastic products into the market at discounted rate and something that we\u2019ll look at bringing back in 2021.<\/p>\n With many communities pulling together across the country, we set our 3D printer to work printing the frames of visors for key workers on the front line. The very least we could do to help in a time of an emergency.<\/p>\n We don\u2019t have too many site wide discounts available across the year, but when we do, they prove to be extremely popular. Our Easter sale saw 10% off selected brands with many of taking full advantage and getting discounted go faster bits!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n As sim racing took off across the globe, we set about creating our very own league on the iRacing<\/strong> platform. With 5 rounds scheduled at different tracks, we\u2019d roped in the help of streaming channel EvoSR.TV<\/strong> to broadcast each round live on YouTube which was a great hit.<\/p>\n With our website continuously growing with more brands and products, we weren\u2019t about to take our foot off the gas. OMP<\/strong><\/a> was the latest addition and with their vast range of motorsport parts and race wear, now was the perfect time as track days were back in full swing!<\/p>\n In the spirit of track days, we set about putting together our very own essential track day preparation guide<\/strong><\/a> to help get the most out of your vehicle. Make sure you check that out if you get 5 minutes!<\/p>\n With the news that competitive motorsport would be coming back, we announced our sponsorship and entry into the Time Attack UK<\/strong> series with our NSX. We headed to Donington Park<\/strong> for the final shakedown to make sure everything was in order before round 1 the following month.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.tegiwaimports.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/BMW-M4-GT4-Feature.jpg\")
