It's no secret that some of the most daring performance on the road today is found under the hood of the Lamborghini Gallardo. Aside from being a heavily sought-after supercar, the Gallardo has won the attention of Reiter Engineering, a German racing team known for their impressive feats on the track. More specifically, the company is known for taking the Gallardo to the next level year after year, and in 2012, they're planning to up the ante in a whole new way.
In previous years, Reiter Engineering has scored wins in the ADAC GT Masters, Brazil GT3, ASIA GT3, and Spanish GT Championship. The company has even competed in the Italian automaker's own Blancpain Super Trofeo one-make competition. So what could be next? The company is aiming for a 24-hour endurance race win.
"Our customers and ourselves proved already that the Gallardo is a safe and fast car in sprint format races," explains Reiter Engineering's Hans Reiter. "Now we want to be successful at long distance races too. Our aim is, to have a reliable 24-hour race car, which is able to win."
To prepare for such a drastic change in pace, Reiter Engineering is making some modifications to their Lamborghini Gallardo racer. More specifically, they're planning to finely-tune the vehicles gearbox for more precise shifting, the suspension for better grip and improved tire longevity, and the vehicle's body for more aerodynamic performance by fitting it with a bigger splitter and double drive plates to increase downforce.
The result will be a Lamborghini Gallardo that can endure anything that the endurance track can throw at it. That said, we here at Lamborghini Palm Beach will be keeping a close eye on the performance of this incredible supercar. And you can count on everyone here at 2345 Okeechobee Boulevard West Palm Beach, FL 33409 to keep you informed on its latest developments and accomplishments.
