SCG Glickenhaus "LMP1" / SCG007

[James Glickenhaus]

This too shall pass and those who don't panic will be fine.

Il teorema di Glickenhaus

Glickenhaus theorem:


Race cars

Racing cars are not created from numbers or calculations, they are inspired by the beautiful things you see in your life.

They come from Michelangelo's David.

They are suggested from nights in Paris.

You conceive them the first time while you are speeding through Lower Manatthan on a Cigarette motorboat.

They flow while listening to a John Kennedy speech.

You feel them in the American anthem “The Star Spangled Banner“ performed by Jimi Hendrix.

You perceive them in Sergio Leone's "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly".

In the tremor that has the face of your newborn child.

In the return home of the daughter you thought you had lost.

Race cars are born from the texts of Bob Dylan.

From "Imagine" by John Lennon.

From the book "My terrible joys" by Enzo Ferrari.

They spring from the eyes of your one true love.

Less of the third please (and the second also)

I shall refrain from liking this post until we see the 007 or 004 getting a team on to the top step of an overall podium (for which I wish the SCG teams the sincerest of good fortune).

@James Glickenhaus

I really like the 007. In this regard, I was wondering about its weight in its road legal configuration.
Assuming for example just a/c is fitted without radio and anything else, would the car be capable to weight less than 1000 kg kerb?
Also, I recently read that you stated that the car will feature 870 hp in endurance tune. Could the road legal counterpart provide a similar output? Because if these two parameters are going to be like I imagine right now, the power to weight ratio of the road legal hypercar will be fantastic.

Thank you.

 

[James Glickenhaus]

Race car will have AC.
Weight without ballast will be 900KG.

So Jim the LM hypercars are slower than LMP1 but faster than LMP2? Are you allowed to go faster than the target lap time of 3.30 minutes?

The rules and BOP will dictate lap times.
The ACO hopes for #:30 at Le Mans.

That's interesting @James Glickenhaus I'm a fan and a follower of GT3 racing. Any chance we'll see this at the SRO GT series, ADAC GT Masters or Super GT besides the Nurburgring 24 and NLS?

Customers may want to race in those series.

Jim you think ByKolles will compete with you and Toyota next year?

 

[James Glickenhaus]

They say they will.

Jim, AMG One is going to the ring. Could it be the first road car to break Stefan's record?

Remember the Mercedes-AMG One? It’s ready for high-speed tests!

Porsche already did with the 919. It won't be a fast as that nor will it be as fast as out 007.

I'm very keen to see how this battle unfolds!

What battle? Project One is not racing in any real race.
007 will race at Le Mans

Excited to see the 004C at the Ring and what it can do relative to the 003C’s 6:33! Hope all is well with SCG and the SCG family, wish you all the best in your endeavors.

Well, I'm already looking forward to seeing the 007 at Le Mans... the claim made though, is that the Project One won't be as fast as the 007, that's going to need to be proven somewhere...

... and for the avoidance of doubt, I'm very much pro-SCG if this face off ever takes place!
