Caliban’s humble announcement.

What are we doing here? Didn’t expect us? Yeah, but we have something to announce.

After four years accepting orders for the newest generation of the Caliban Thunder, we’ve finally finished our first image and engine refresh for it.

The new Caliban Thunder will be just as nimble as before the facelift, but the engine output has been raised from 150hp to 180hp; the engine has been kept N/A and has even reduced its displacement from 1.6 to 1.4 liters. To counter this and make even more power, we extended the rev range and powerband, now redlining at 9000rpm. As such, out latest version of our famous I4 has been nicknamed “Screamer”.

The new engine doesn’t use VVT for a purer experience, but it does use VVL to increase efficiency. Consumption has decreased to 8 l/100km for the newer engine, while offering more power and higher revving than the older engine.

The refreshed Thunder will now be orderable for only $19400.

THE ZEST-ZENIT LINEUP 2018


THE ENTRY LEVEL

THE ZEST 1.7 PRIMA


If this is the most used fleet car in Italy, there is a good reason. Low running costs, good drivabilit and a pinch of peppiness to allows italian drivers to have a bit of fun here and there. As the simplest interior without any entertainment system, allows almost everybody to afford a brand new, reliable C segment car.


THE IDEAL TRIM

THE ZEST 1.7t LINEA


The choice of the italian commuter. A comfortable, family friendly hatchback, with great fuel mileage wihout sacrificing any grociery-getter capability, children friendly (thanks to its integrated rear seat booster) and robotized gearbox for the sporty moment when the whirring of the turbo unleash all the horses available. It also has the new Zcreen, the infotainment system debuted on the Zephir in the 2012.


THE PREMIUM SEDAN

THE ZENIT 1.7ti SALA


For the person that doesn’t want to sacrifice the reliability and the technology of the Žnoprešk brand but want a premium feel while driving it. Thanks to the direct injection, the 1.7ti is capable of almost 100hp/l retaining a great milage. No compromise on this engine/car/trim combo. Only the best that Žnoprešk can offer.


THE HOT HATCH

THE ZEST 1.7 TS


At the moment, the only 3 door version of the Zest. Similar interior of the Linea, it has an upgraded infotainment system, but the real deal is the LSD on the driving wheels, the dual clutch gearbox, the adaptive dampers and the launch control. It reach 100km/h in less than 6.2 seconds. But all the sportiness do not came at the sacrifice of the car’s drivability. A car that means Fun!

New for 2019, Leviathan brings you the Scylla series. Loaded with technology developed from the Halcyon project, there is a Scylla for the role of family commuter, luxury sedan, and high-performance GT.

The Scylla (base model)

The base model Scylla is a premium sedan is powered by a very smooth and enjoyable 2.1L inline-6 turbo, giving it 238 hp and 215 lb-ft. of torque. The Scylla achieves a combined 34.6 mpg with cruising tests reaching much higher. Thanks in part to its VVL technology, the inline-6 is quiet at low speeds and is capable of revving up to 9000 rpm. 0-62 mph acceleration is just over 6 seconds and the top speed is tested at 153 mph. Surprisingly nimble for it’s size, the Scylla makes use of it’s active multilink suspension, dual clutch transmission, and AWD layout for a fun driving experience that doesn’t sacrifice everyday comfort.

The entry level trim comes with premium leather seats, a sunroof, and Leviathan’s tried and true premium infotainment system. A $3,500 option is available for the new HUD system with 12-speaker Revel audio, internet access, voice controls and more. Electric Variable power steering and ESC ensure the Scylla is easy to drive and includes a sport setting. The base Scylla’s pricing starts at $30,995.


Scylla S

The S model is the next major step up from family sedan to GT car. This trim level features a 3.3L V8 twinturbo making 369 hp. This is enough to propel the Scylla S from 0-62 mph in 4.6 seconds and reach speeds near 180 mph. The tuned suspension and high performance tires help the 2-ton car push 1.2 g’s around corners. The advanced HUD system comes standard with the S model as well as the highest quality safety features available. Much faster and nearly as efficient as the base model at a combined 30.7 mpg, the Scylla S is priced at $58,100.


Scylla GT

The high end Scylla GT is a 2+2 coupe version with the option of 4 full seats. The GT gets its power from the Halcyon’s 488 hp V12 twinturbo. The 0-62 mph time is a blistering 3.6 seconds without the help of its launch control and its top speed is 193 mph. Carbon ceramic brakes stop the GT from 62-0 mph in just 94 ft. Every inch of the interior conveys quality, with it’s futuristic HUD system shared with the Halcyon GT. The fuel economy is not sacrificed for this performance 30.6 mpg combined. While not tuned for the track racing, the GT achieved 1:18.25 around the Airfield test track. The Scylla GT will be available later this year for $84,675.

Gavin Anderson, you are welcome to test drive the Scylla GT if you desire. LMC Scylla - GT.car (32.7 KB)

GBSC & EVE LMP1

Note, I can't make the car in UE4, so I'm using a placeholder livery, and a bunch of bullshit

With the 2018 Endurance season right around the corner, GBSC will finally unveil their plans. This year sees them moving from the LMP2 class, as an engine supplier, and moving to the LMP1 category, supported by the wonderful team at EVE Motorsport, who had gathered information in the Formula E series.

This LMP1 entry is a joint effort between the two companies. GBSC will be using an evolved and updated version of their LMP2 category V8, while EVE will be supplying an all-new Hybrid drivetrain. The Chassis itself is a joint project between the two companies, and is a major step up for both companies in a competitive sphere. This also marks GBSC’s return to top level LeMans Endurance racing since the abolition of Group C.

The Livery features the Main colours of Both Companies, the White of GBSC, and the Orange of EVE. It features sponsorship from Amazon UK, Alpinestars, Hankook, and Monster Energy as of Now, with more to join in the Future.

GBSC and EVE hope to be competitive in the field, hoping to achieve at least a podium finish in the Championship.

2 tons?! Is is all steel? Also, 2.1 litre is just perfect to get higher tax/insurance/whatever rates in many places in Europe (the most common treshold is at 2.0). But I like the design, it looks pretty harmonious and well flowing :slight_smile:

Thanks, and I didn’t know about that with Europe. Also I probably should’ve specified that its 2 'murican tons (just over 4000 lbs) and not 2 metric tons, which is still heavy with the advanced safety and whatnot.

ErinSport are proud to announce the full confirmation of their WEC 2018/2019 Super Season team entrant.
For the first time since 2002, ErinSport are entering with both a prototype racer and a homologated GTE car, mraking a return to normality for the team.

Car running numbers will be confirmed once the full entry list has been completed.


Sponsorship Detail

The official sponsors for the 2018/19 ErinSport WEC Team are as follows.


2018 ErinSport GT18 S1


Photo by @titleguy1

ErinSport will enter two cars into the LMP1 Hybrid category. Driver details are as follows:

Chassis #1

  • Jordan Jacobsen, 33 [DNK]
    The plucky yet suave Dane has made most of his career in the USA racing with Nohda in the IMSA/WeatherTech Sports for the past 6 years, but has been rumoured to have been being scouted out by ErinSport for much of 2017. He now has a 2 season contract with the team.
  • Nathan King, 37 [GBR]
    A well seasoned endurance racer, King rose to fame in the European Le Mans Series with the Pescarolo-ErinSport team, before joining the 2011 ErinSport team at Le Mans, racing in the GT09 until it was pulled from competition in 2013.
  • Alek Rodcheski, 38 [POL]
    Rodcheski is perhaps the star of ErinSport, having joined through their Juniors program in 1999 before working his way up through just about every series the motorsport operation competes in to now be considered perhaps the single best driver in their roster. His place on this team was a given.

Chassis #2

  • Danny Garland-Monsort, 28 [USA]
    Another driver who made his fame in IMSA, Garland-Monsort raced with Maine’s motorsport division for a number of years in their Daytona Prototypes before being offered a place on the ErinSport WEC team. The Texan is noted for his keen skill to find half a second from any lap time, whatever the cost.
  • Felix Lemaire, 35 [FRA]
    A star of the French motorsport team, Lemaire has a had a varied career including running with the prestigious Merciel World Rally Team. A change of heart has seen him turn towards Endurance racing , and he’s been in talks with ErinSport to join their team for most of this winter.
  • Edvard Stojanović, 34 [HRV]
    The Croatian GT car driver has seen considerable success in the Blancpain GT series, and joined the WEC with a privateer team in 2014. He was scouted out as a potential for the ErinSport team when he put in a number of impressive stints at the 2017 24 Hours of Le Mans.

2018 Erin Scarlet GTE-18

The Scarlet GTE-18 continues on from the Scarlet GT introduced last year, now designed to comply with GTE regulations and modified in various ways to favour endurance over sprint racing.

Details about the car are being kept fairly hushed for the sake of competition, though ErinSport can confirm the following:

  • A race tuned version of the 4.0l V8 used in the road-going 400X trim is under the bonnet, producing 546 hp
  • Kerb weight of 1312 kg
  • 0-60 in 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 220 mph+
  • Green Hell Lap Time of ~7:25

The driver line up is as follows:

Chassis #1

  • Tom Deeley, 26 [GBR]
    With a career that started in kart racing, Deeley was talent scouted by ErinSport at the age of 18. He switched a potential career in Formula 3 for a career in high-end touring car racing, competiting with the ErinSport WTCC team for 4 seasons prior to joining the WEC team.
  • Charlotte Griffiths, 27 [GBR]
    Another driver who’s career began with the ErinSport juniors team, Griffiths raced in the infamous ErinSport BTCC team from 2012 to 2015, as well as gaining experience with the Aihara WEC team before being shortlisted to run with the Scarlet this season.
  • Georgina Stevens, 26 [GBR]
    Stevens is a rising star in the European Le Mans Series, gaining her first podium at just 22 at the 4 Hours of Imola in 2014. Her current contract was set to run out at the end of last year, making it a perfect opportunity to bring her on board this season.

Chassis #2

  • Aren Geisler, 30 [GER]
    One of DTM’s more recognisable drivers, Geisler has found enough time in his calendar to bring his fierce driving ability to the ErinSport team. His experience with heavy homologated cars made him a surefire choice to race with the Scarlet this season.
  • Josef Isaksson, 25 [SWE]
    The charismatic and charming Swede joined ErinSport via the Juniors program and has earned his name in touring car racing. His ambition has always been to enter GT car racing, making this a perfect opportunity to jump his career up.
  • Willard Stern, 28 [GER]
    A talent who’s been in high demand, Stern has spent much of his career racing with Shromet and ACA in the GT classes of IMSA. ErinSport were keen to bring him on board for his capability with strategy and pacing, making him well suited to endurance racing.
