CARSINLIFE

Thanks to the American car collector Jim Glickenhaus and to his passion for exclusive sporty cars, a new and exciting challenge was launched in September 2013. SCG003C is the name for the 2013-2017 project by Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus, to which was appointed as Program Director. World premiere unveiling took place at the 2015 Geneva International Motor Show, where the public was introduced to the first of the 5 race cars built and to the model for the Stradale version that was then displayed at the GIMS 2017.  SCG003 is a completely new GT, inspired by the latest design and technologies developed in the LMP1/LMP2 series. Surfaces of the car have been shaped by the combined work of the talented Granstudio’s styling team led by Lowie Vermeersch and Goran Popovic and supported by Ing. Paolo Catone, the father of many successful sport racing cars. The all carbon fibre structure has been designed to achieve maximum rigidity and flexibility in packaging, ease of maintenance and safety. The rear carbon fibre frame holds the suspension pick-up points and can be easily exchanged to allow the use of different engines on the same platform. The Hewland gearbox, with paddle shift, is a strong and reliable unit coupled, in the race version, with a V6 3,5L TT developed by Autotecnica Motori and derived from the HPD Honda V6 engine. The chassis has a very refined suspension layout with front and rear push-rods. The race car is equipped with BOSCH Motorsport electronics and Dunlop Tires. SCG003C took part to the VLN championship races and to the 24 Hours at the Nürburgring from 2015 to 2017.
