In 1993, the FIA introduced the GT1 race class for Le Mans, marking the beginning of one of the most iconic racing periods in the sport’s history. To date, more than 15 manufacturers have built cars for the GT1 class, creating a legacy of extraordinary competition and innovation. These homologation cars often had compromised road performance as they were built to allow manufacturers to optimise them for track use.
This is designed specifically for the road.

 

The GT ONE was born through a conversion between Richard Tuthill and client Elliot Ross, the film producer and car collector. Tuthill will build 22 production examples with each vehicle requiring 3,500 build-hours of meticulous construction to create each client’s personalised car. Styling and aesthetically designed by California based designer Florian Flatau, the GT ONE features a full carbon fibre body which is powered by a 4.0-litre, 6-cylinder engine; available in both naturally aspirated and forced induction versions. The naturally aspiratedengine option will produce in excess of 500 BHP, inspired by our high-revving 911K engine, while the forced induction offering will produce over 600 BHP. Tuthill also offers the clients a choice of transmissions; a 7-speed dual-clutch option, as fitted to the car on show at The Quail, or a manual equivalent.Additionally, the GT ONE is equipped with twin wishbone front and rear suspension, carbon ceramic brakes, and bespoke brake calipers, achieving a weight of1,200 kg. Cutting-edge engineering and exceptional materials are used throughout the car. The underbody and surface aero performance have been optimised throughCFD analysis to enhance performance. The car boasts a carbon fibre front clam, rear clam, and a full carbon roof with an integrated air intake. Within thebodywork is an FIA based roll over protection system (ROPS) and full carbon fibre doors with side impact bars. An optional aero package may be developed fortrack use. Tuthill remains dedicated to pushing the boundaries of automotive excellence, combining decades of real-world driving experience with innovative engineering. We are delighted to partner with Michelin, and run the vehicle on the world-renowned Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyre. The Pilot Sport 4 S sets the benchmark for all-round performance, feel, and handling; a truly iconic tyre with uncompromised character, just like the GT ONE.

“It has been an absolute pleasure to work with this amazing bunch of people at Wardington who continue to have such passion to create these amazing cars. Atthe heart of this piece of artwork is of course the constant pursuit of mechanical excellence. We have taken inspiration from all that we have done in the pastand have been inspired by what others have done before us and continue to do. As usual, I sincerely hope those who wish to own one of these will also wish todrive them as often as they can and create memories that will last a lifetime. The FIA GT1 class enabled manufacturers to create stunning race cars. We have taken the best bits but focused on producing a wonderful road car… I hope youcan all enjoy it with us!” – Richard Tuthill.

“I would never have imagined that I would one day be entrusted with the freedom, in this environment, to revisit the spirit of an automotive era like that of the FIAGT1 class; it’s a very deep and personal experience for me. I hope this project resonates with you on an emotional level, sparks a unique dialogue, allows you totravel in time, and ultimately enriches your personal collection as the first investment in a collectible series – I aim to establish over the years to come.
Thank you – to every soul who helped bringing this alive .” – Florian Flatau (Design Director)

Quel 4.0 litri B6 urla Williams-Singer...

 

Fantastica .!!!

 

Bellissimi i dettagli come gli interni, i cerchi pieni, i fari posteriori.

Stupenda, ma senza ala posteriore sembra incompleta (ha pure due "tappi" dove dovrebbero esserci i supporti) 

Non ho idea di cosa sia e di chi la faccia, però è stupenda. 

I M P A Z Z I S C O 😮😮😮

Sul cosa non mi esprimo perché ne so poco, per il chi invece qualcosina in più la so, Tuthill prepara le 911 da rally, e anche dei restomod tipo Singer ma in chiave più racing (senti qua che roba 😍)
