M5kid,
This is the information on the car..
The long-awaited return of Lamborghini to professional sports car racing edged closer to reality this week when the company unveiled the Murcielago R-GT, a new race car derived from its acclaimed super sports car, the Lamborghini Murcielago. The car was unveiled at the IAA Frankfort Motor Show.
The Murcielago R-GT, developed jointly with renowned race car engineering company Reiter Engineering in Germany, and parent company Audi's sports division Audi Sport, will offer Lamborghini clients a car with which to compete in global professional motorsport.
The car was built to the specifications of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO), organizer of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, so that it would be eligible to compete at Le Mans and in the American Le Mans Series.
The R-GT will be equipped with a Lamborghini air restricted 6 litre V12 engine, developing a highly competitive power output. The drive train, converted from the Murciélago permanent 4WD to RWD, as per the FIA/ACO regulations, will sport a sequential gearbox. The total weight will be contained within the relevant class specification of 1100 kg.
American Le Mans Series drivers Oliver Gavin and Peter Kox, who compete for rival Corvette and Ferrari teams in the ALMS, will be co-drivers of the car in its maiden race, an FIA-GT event in Estoril, Portugal, on October 5.
'There is already substantial demand for the Murcielago R-GT, from motorsport teams and drivers alike, said Dr. Werner Mischke, Chairman and President of Automobili Lamborghini. We anticipate this new race car becoming one of the special attractions in GT motorsport. The presence of this new racing Lamborghini at international sports car events will be a perfect opportunity to showcase the competitive and performance advantages of the Murcielago.'
