COMPLIANCE TESTING

Compliance and Certification as an Engineering Discipline

Compliance testing and FIA / HTP certification are not box-ticking exercises. At Nine-W Motorsport, inspection and certification are treated as critical engineering processes that protect safety, preserve value, and ensure eligibility for competition.


We undertake extensive FIA Historic Technical Passport (HTP) work, supporting owners of historic and competition cars through the inspection, assessment, and certification process. Our approach combines engineering judgement with a detailed understanding of regulations, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and confidence throughout.

Inspection with Experience and Insight

Effective compliance testing relies on experience as much as equipment. Our engineers understand where stress, fatigue, and structural issues are most likely to arise in historic and competition machinery, allowing inspections to focus on the areas that matter most.

Through careful assessment and methodical inspection, we support both initial FIA / HTP applications and ongoing certification requirements — identifying issues early and avoiding unnecessary disruption to the car’s originality or usability.

FIA / HTP Certification with Confidence

Nine-W Motorsport provides informed support throughout the FIA / HTP certification process, ensuring that cars meet the required technical standards while maintaining authenticity and historical accuracy.

Because compliance testing sits within our wider engineering capability, any remedial or corrective work identified during inspection can be addressed efficiently and sympathetically — maintaining continuity, accountability, and technical integrity from assessment through to certification.

Certification You Can Trust

FIA / HTP certification demands accuracy, experience, and sound engineering judgement. At Nine-W Motorsport, compliance testing is delivered with a disciplined, informed approach built through years of specialist work at the highest level of historic motorsport.

The result is certification you can rely on — supported by engineering knowledge, not assumption.
