RTN to build new Le Mans car

10th October 2007

Racing Technology Norfolk Ltd, the Hingham, UK based company which when part of Audi Sport built the 2003 Le Mans 24 Hour race winning Bentley Speed 8 racecar, has won a contract to build a new Le Mans sports prototype.

The Wakefield,UK based Embassy Racing organisation has commissioned Peter Elleray, the chief designer of the 2003 Bentley, to design an LMP2 chassis for the 2008 Le Mans Series and the 24 hour race and has contracted RTN to produce its main chassis structure, bodywork and wind tunnel models.

RTN commercial manager Graham Muff said, "We're delighted and proud to have been selected by Embassy Racing as their technical partner to deliver the major structures of their new endurance racer. The contract recognises Racing Technology Norfolk's unquestioned credentials in advanced composites and is a big vote of confidence as Racing Technology Norfolk returns to the commercial world. A credit to Norfolk motorsport."
