FRJ-50 // The Car
Specs_fjr50

 

One look at the specs of the FJR-50 and there is no mistaking that this is a real racing machine.  From the carbon monocoque tub to the sequential gearbox, from slick tires to adjustable wings, this car is built with both performance and driver safety in mind.  

The 2.0 liter turbocharged Mitsubishi engine can deliver 300 hp, and mated to a car weighing in at a svelte 465 kilograms, yields a power-to-weight ratio equal to 645 hp per ton.  What it means to the driver is a 0-60 time well within 4 seconds and 0-100 times in under nine seconds.  The light weight coupled with efficient aerodynamics can yield cornering forces of as much as 3g and the AP Racing brakes will bring it all to halt from 100 mph in less than 175 feet.  

Whether your goal is to experience a real race or to get real race car experience, the FJR-50 will not disappoint.
