Acura Motorsport revealed the 2015 Acura TLX GT Race Car prototype at the 2014 NAIAS.
The new prototype will include two all-new advanced powertrains that will provide a more athletic performance along with all of Aura’s technology. The 2015 Acura TLX GT will also offer two all-new, high performance and highly fuel-efficient direct-injected engines. Each engine is made with an all-new advanced transmission alongside available two-wheel drive and all-wheel-drive configurations.
The TLX GT Race Car will also feature HPD chassis and aerodynamic performance parts approved for the Pirelli Word Challenge competition. It will be powered by a direct-injected, twin-turbocharged V6 engine that is developed by HPD.
RealTime Racing’s team principal Peter Cunningham said ” with the onslaught of these world-class GT-3 competitors joining the fray, we will be working hard to develop the new TLX GT into a winning package."
