The new Infiniti team will field just one car at the opening British Touring Car Championship round at Brands Hatch this weekend.
Having missed the official pre-season test at Donington Park last week due to a delayed build process, the Support our Paras-linked team completed the shakedown of its first Q50 on Wednesday at Mallory Park with Derek Palmer Jr driving.
However, its second car will not be ready for the coming weekend.
"We experienced a late technical problem today which, after detailed analysis, has unfortunately resulted in the second car now not being in a position to race at Brands Hatch," team principal Derek Palmer Snr said.
"Of course it's disappointing, but this is exactly what test sessions such as today's are intended to discover before we head into a race weekend.
"We can now take the necessary steps to ensure the same problem doesn't materialise in the other car."
The team has not decided which driver will be forced to miss the opening round of the 2015 season.
The shakedown at Mallory, where the team is based, comprised installation laps and "a number of race-pace laps".
"We completed everything we set ourselves for this first running," added Palmer Sr.
"The guys did a fantastic job preparing the car, and it was an emotional moment seeing it take to the track for the first time.
"Everyone in the team has worked tirelessly to get to where we are.
"We know we're a work-in-progress, but we know we have the team to deliver."
