TEAM BLUE JAMEIRAH TAKE DELIVERY OF THEIR NEW
MOSLER SUPER GT600
7th July 2011
Mosler Europe's latest race car,
the Super GT600 was yesterday handed over to its owner Rafael
Unzurrunzaga of Spain, at Donington Park Race Circuit.
Rafael first
saw the first version of this car , the Japanese GT300 Mosler, over
a year ago and fell in love with the concept.
The car is a space frame Mosler
which has allowed for greater scope with enhanced aerodynamics and
chassis design for race use.
The car is a first in many ways
for Mosler, in that it features primarily the Chevrolet 7 litre LS7
engine, in stock form, but with a new induction and exhaust system
and more significantly, installed in the GT300 chassis and bodywork
that previously was sent to the Super GT Championship in Japan in
the GT300 class. The engine is 600 bhp, as opposed to the 300 bhp
Japanese car, hence the name GT600.
Other features are the Motec PDM
system, a programmable 'relay and circuit breaker' system, combined
with the Motec ADL display and Motec M800 ECU, and OBR touch panel
for the switchgear, and and also from Hewland Engineering, the
world premiere of Hewlands very latest LWS gearbox. A brand new
design utilising a bigger crown wheel and pinion than the long used
NLT box used by Mosler for the last 9 years, and its the companys
new 'budget but sophisticated' gearbox. The new car also features
new wheels from Braid.
Martin Short, CEO of Mosler
Europe "Rafael was the driving force behind the specification of
this car. It has caused us a number of headaches, with delays of
certain advanced parts, but we finally got there and its been well
worth it. The new electronic on-board systems have proved to be a
great advance on our standard wiring system, and the new Hewland
LWS a total revelation. Our version is, for the first time, a
paddle shift only version, so no gear lever at all, and its just so
slick to use. The new body work is generating impressive downforce,
developed using CFD with TotalSim.
Our latest cars have proved to
be more than a performance match for significantly higher priced
GT1 specification cars, and are very easy to drive, with advanced
traction control, Anti-lock brake systems, and electrically
adjustable power steering. The aero is planting the car very firmly
on the track, and it performs extremely well in wet
conditions.
This latest version has turned
out to be a really great car, and competitively priced. We are
really very proud of it."
