A look into the future.

We are currently developing our GT1 racing program and are hopeful to bring the project to fruition in the near future.

This platform represents years of design, engineering, and passion toward building a purpose-built race car focused on performance, balance, and driver engagement.

We’re also proud to have support from Haltech and Anti-Gravity Batteries as sponsors for the program as development continues forward.

More updates to come as the project evolves.

This is where it all lived.

A close-up of the dog box that carried us through GT1 racing with the Noble M12 and M400—Lap after lap, race after race, through Laguna Seca’s front straight at 162 mph.

Eighteen races. Qualifying. Testing.

And when we opened it up…
Only a faint mark on the input shaft.

Everything else—unchanged. Untouched. Ready to go again.

This isn’t just durability.
This is precision, alignment, and understanding the limits before they ever arrive.

It’s the kind of engineering that doesn’t ask for attention—
It earns trust.

And this is how our journey continues today.

Another angle of the HVR GT1—where form, function, and time itself intersect.

Back then, every panel was born through a meticulous wet layup process, vacuum-extracting the resin, chasing consistency and strength over days. It was unforgiving—but it laid the foundation.

Today, we work with pre-preg materials, autoclaves, and precision. Yet this is how our journey continues—with all the knowledge learned from the past, shaping every new curve. The HVR GT1 isn’t just a race car; it’s living proof of that evolution.

Long before the M400R concept took shape, we built a fully SCCA-homologated GT1 platform over a decade ago—a pure track machine. The M400R grew out of that same lineage. Now, with our large U.S. network, we’ve been asked to bring this GT1 program to fruition—potentially offering a rental program for those who want to experience the exhilarating world of racing firsthand. Whether it’s head-to-head or toe-to-toe on the track, we’re exploring how this proven platform could ignite a new era of racing for our community. It’s not a new idea—it’s part of the foundation that’s driven us all along.

Exhaust Architecture — Tuned from the Inside Out

This is where packaging meets performance.

We’re developing the exhaust system from first principles—starting at the headers and working rearward, with every bend, merge, and length calculated with intent. Equalized flow, smooth transitions, and controlled pulse behavior are all part of the equation.

The headers are being refined for optimal primary and secondary lengths, balancing scavenging efficiency with real-world packaging constraints. From there, the system routes inward—bringing the muffler into the chassis envelope rather than hanging it as an external afterthought.

Why?

• Improved mass centralization
• Reduced rear overhang weight
• Cleaner aero behind the car
• Better thermal control within a defined structure

The tubing is continuously adjusted—millimeters at a time—to achieve the right harmonics, backpressure, and flow characteristics. This isn’t just about sound. It’s about how the engine breathes, responds, and delivers power across the entire band.

Every constraint becomes an opportunity.
Every compromise is engineered out.

This is exhaust design as part of the chassis—not separate from it.
