The world’s first e-Touring Car Challenge will be hosted at the circuit of Formula E Hong Kong ePrix as a prelude and highlight of the event on October 8 and October 9 at Central Harborfront. RevoZport is proud to be participating in this major international motorsport event. Being the official aerokit supplier for the e-Touring Car Challenge, RevoZport developed the first aerobat specifically designed for the Volkswagen e-Gold. Known as the “Razor 7E” and based on the e-Golf, this car consists of the following new carbon fiber additions: front splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser, bumper canard and GT roof spoiler.
In order to fullfil performance and safety parameters, 16 brand-new Volkswagen e-Golfs will undergo a range of modifications by FRD (Formula Racing Technology Ltd.). These mods will include racing seats, brakes, suspension, roll cage, rims, 6-point harness and fire extinguisher upgrades that meet the standards for the race event.
The e-Touring Car Challenge will have two practice sessions ahead of a 15-minute qualifying and 20-minute race event. Both practice sessions and the race event will be held on the track of Formula E. Five celebrity drivers with previous racing experience will be invited to compete with ten veteran drivers. This surely adds to the overall fun and excitement of this much anticipated event.
