1984 Galgo ETCC
ADM entered racing in 1982 with the Pilgrim racing in the European Touring Car Championship. And although the car was competitive for that season, in was rendered too slow in 1983, as most of the cars were going into the “more power” realm. For this reason, ADM exported some Galgos to europe, and used some Grand Prix models to homolagate and create a more fitting and competitive car.
As per Group A regulations, the car was mildly modified to meet the minimum weight, while most of the suspension components were strenghten and the brakes improved (as well as a new gearbox). The engine modifications were limited, the air filter was removed, the camshaft and valves although the same size were more stronger and lighter, a new exhaust manifold was installed and the 2 fuel injectors were retuned. As a result, the car put around 320hp, more than enough to compete with the rest of the cars (but way less thant the Galgo GTO was captable). It ran in 184, 1985 and 1986.
