The new mid-engined competition coupe with Cosworth YD 2.0 litre power is being built for the one-make Chevron GR8 Challenge Series. UK-based specialist race car construction company Chevron have revealed the production specifications and images of their latest vehicle, the GR8. The GR8, which is the company's first all-new coupe for forty years, uses some of the design cues from Chevron's previous B8 coupe model. Although for the new car the bodywork has been made considerably sharper and more contemporary.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://designcarbody.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTqZ5gwoXNNyJyix70jWFPB6LAiEiG-Zv74eOBbhzNL7b23auBHQGVS_-AKPNET9oWnfC5O06HQsRCShOxyjIipMPRud5ibEh4P5CEMfHWHvL7HRYROiQkHCPGa6P4QFYflnOHKon3AVs/s400/Chevron-Sports-Car--GR8-12.gif" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Chevron Racing Cars GR8 Cosworth</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Organised by the British Automobile Racing Club (BARC), the Series will make its racing debut at Silverstone on 8/9 May<b> 2010</b>.

The body is being shown in the form of design renderings generated from the CAD files produced for machining the body tooling model.

Priced £3,380 new, Chevron B8s - which typically make up a significant percentage of grids in international championship historic <b>sports </b>and <b>GT racing </b>- now change hands for £300,000.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://designcarbody.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_jCjyNe9ny5rujn94AJnp5C0Vqyc27Er2ZOMTJWQw6Yqa4k4hzWX6TJL8lpJ4DD3M3HI1LN0nUJGecCRo7_1v1jXCbJIlWq_LIW-IHLOghkXKrim0WH-dS5zR6OvMd45Ioj9OFiPK7xI/s400/Chevron-Sports-Car--GR8-6.gif" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Chevron Racing Cars GR8 Cosworth</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The body is the work of international automotive design consultant Lester Allen, an ex-GM studio chief designer and former senior Royal College of Art vehicle design course tutor.

Peak torque is 190 ft-lbs at 7500 rpm.

Forward of the front bulkhead, a 50 mm and 25 mm box section steel spaceframe incorporates a removable nose box. The rear spaceframe is also in 50 mm and 25 mm box section steel. The sills make more effective use of material than might be the case with a tubular structure and are seen as a better solution to side impact protection. The braking system uses AP callipers, with 330 mm diameter by 28 mm wide discs at the front and 304 mm diameter by 28 mm discs at the rear. Steering is rack and pinion. All aeroquip is by Goodridge.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://designcarbody.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbhJTNd2E5vS4VcboILEGu5Gqzou_DPg28aUcgSN4-sLY-KYVL8_p58tLswOE_cRrVr1YZp3WevKtixPrdgBREeBTgdaCUHo8uTL9YHkQVYW83eSVtTgIITk5nParnaD2SnDikrwlbgy4/s400/Chevron-Sports-Car--GR8-3.gif" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Chevron Racing Cars GR8 Cosworth</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Two Chevron GR8 Challenge Series rounds will be run at each of the BARC meetings where the Series is in the programme and races will feature rolling starts. Entries are open to either one or two drivers. With a team of two, the idea is for each to contest one round. Accepting entries for two drivers creates obvious opportunities for sharing costs. As part of the support provided to participants, Chevron plans to have a pool car on hand as a spare should a competitor's own Chevron GR8 be unable to start a race for whatever reason.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://designcarbody.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4FkeL6gnIEgpxfeN_lJkl5LYaz0MqArcoEo2_pC9k52t4c9hySIFY2H047dtD4UDxefL9HOEe2VEDZE2kweOwkHsjsntqB8OHzTtJTCKs4M1UK6YRANKEOYPGLamRfBn73OBLTtTh6Ls/s400/Chevron-Sports-Car--GR8-7.gif" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Chevron Racing Cars GR8 Cosworth</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Chevron GR8 model name has aroused a certain amount of internet chatter. Chevron Racing's Helen Bashford-Malkie comments: "In the wake of the announcement late last year that the Chevron GR8 project was under way, I guess the name was up for discussion amongst blogging community for the reason that few hard details had been released about the car.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">"The inclusion of '8' pays homage to the B8, the project's inspiration. 'GR' stands for Grand Touring/Racing, but as GTR is used for a Nissan model, we omitted 'T'. We elected for 'GR' because it's got a bit of 'grrrr' combativeness about it. If some people choose to interpret 'GR8' as texting for great well, okay. The fact that it is also being used in the name of the racing Series was also a consideration." </div>

At the <span style="font-weight: bold;">2009 Tokyo Motor Show </span>Suzusho are planning on unveiling their first in-house designed vehicle, the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Surpasse V</span>.This is the second<span style="font-weight: bold;"> car show</span> of extremely high performance closed <span style="font-weight: bold;">sports car</span> Supasse V. Director <span style="font-weight: bold;">Toshio Suzuki</span> was a <span style="font-weight: bold;">Racing</span> driver.He and his two sons and his professional staff has been to designing and manufacturing sports car using 3D CAD systems for many years.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wSUG_ibJWC4/Su_9xKej2oI/AAAAAAAAAkg/334HRCVLISU/s1600-h/2009-Suzusho-Surpasse-V-Sports-Car-2.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399813499308464770" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wSUG_ibJWC4/Su_9xKej2oI/AAAAAAAAAkg/334HRCVLISU/s400/2009-Suzusho-Surpasse-V-Sports-Car-2.jpg" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">2009 Suzusho Surpasse V</span><br /></div><br />For such a small outfit and niche sports car maker the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Su</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">rpasse V </span>is a surprisingly good looking motor. Sure there are some elements which could do with attention - more specifically the sealed-beam headlight units which are crudely molded into the bodywork - but overall it's not a bad looking little sports car. Lots of people will point out the styling similarities with the Ferrari Enzo, and rightly so as there is obviously some Enzo influences in there. But at the same time it's clear this is not intended to be a replica, it just borrows a few shapes from one of the best supercars of all time.The monocoque chassis and the suspension is <span style="font-weight: bold;">designed</span> by Suzusho. The rear sub frame is bolt on and is easily replaceable. The Suppasse-V is the closest thing on the road that is equal to a competitive <span style="font-weight: bold;">racing car</span> which, can be seen at <span style="font-weight: bold;">Le-mans </span>and many other circuits.<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wSUG_ibJWC4/Su_9w53T1XI/AAAAAAAAAkY/cJJE72IgYQQ/s1600-h/2009-Suzusho-Surpasse-V-Sports-Car-3.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399813494848869746" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wSUG_ibJWC4/Su_9w53T1XI/AAAAAAAAAkY/cJJE72IgYQQ/s400/2009-Suzusho-Surpasse-V-Sports-Car-3.jpg" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">2009 Suzusho Surpasse V</span><br /></div><br />The Body is shaped and designed by the famous<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Kenji Mimura</span>, who is well known for <span style="font-weight: bold;">Dome Zero </span>and Le-mans cars in Japan. We are very pleased to present to you with satisfaction the Supasse V.Mounted behind the two-seat passenger compartment is a 2.3 litre, turbocharged, inline 4-cylinder engine lifted from the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mazda3 </span>MPS. Producing a respectable 270 horsepower @ 5,500 rpm, and 380 Nm of torque @ 3,000 rpm this unit should offer pretty impressive performance considering the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Surpasse V</span> only weighs 850 kgs (1,873 lbs).<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wSUG_ibJWC4/Su_9wemmOqI/AAAAAAAAAkQ/9tFsmm_so3Y/s1600-h/2009-Suzusho-Surpasse-V-Sports-Car-4.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399813487531014818" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wSUG_ibJWC4/Su_9wemmOqI/AAAAAAAAAkQ/9tFsmm_so3Y/s400/2009-Suzusho-Surpasse-V-Sports-Car-4.jpg" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">2009 Suzusho Surpasse V</span><br /></div><br />It's doubtful whether the Suzusho will be offering the Surpasse V outside of Japan. So it looks like the car will be mainly battling against the likes of the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Tommy Kaira ZZ</span> and<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Vemac RD180.</span><br /></div>
