After a not-too-long first phase of only 2 years, Galpin Auto Sports (GAS) is just the cloth of his GTR1 pulled, a car that should show how an evolution of the Ford GT from had seen, as Ford is there to ventured had.

The donor GT retained its 5.4 L V8, but GAS unscrewed the supercharger off, and put two 61 mm turbos. Because of this, in hot pursuit of the GTR there to 1,024 hp (about 1.035 hp) and 1.002 Nm, good for a top speed of over 362 km/h (it remains an American product, hence the rechtdoorfascinatie).

The aluminum carriage is hand-made (expensive!), and 12.5 cm wider than that of the Ford GT. The wheels measure 20 inches, with ceramic brake discs. To the 20-inchers stick Pirelli P-Zero’s. Koolstofvezelaccenten adorn the appearance, and in the interior we find, in particular, many leerbekleding, but also an aluminum instrument panel.

The GTR1 began as a private project of someone who loved the Shelby GR-1. He gave Metalcrafters, a specialist plaatwerkfirma, the command of the GR-1 further for him to work out. On their turn approached they GAS again, and here is the result.

There is, according to the creators will still be some strain in the engine, he would be pretty easy 1.250 hp to be able to. Will probably be their next project. The interior looks like after a night of heavy steps by a herd of smurfs is ondergekotst, but probably also in a different color.

Price: $ 1,024,000 at, or ten Benjamins ($1,000) per hp. Da’s vigorously.
