Dyson Racing, reigning American Le Mans Series (ALMS) LMP1 champion, will take delivery of the first Caterham SP/300.R.
The Caterham Cars-appointed official U.S. distributor is one of the most successful and longest-running privateer race teams in America, having competed in IMSA GTO and GTP, SCCA Trans-Am, GRAND-AM, CART and Indy Lights championships since its inception in 1974. The production U.S. version of the Caterham and Lola-designed car will be manufactured in the UK, with final assembly at Dyson Racing, Poughkeepsie, NY. Caterham will fully build the first U.S. spec demo SP/300.R at its Dartford factory.
Dyson Racing has been heavily involved in the development of the SP/300.R, having sent former Le Mans 24 Hours winner, Guy Smith and Technical Director, Peter Weston, to Caterham’s test sessions.
“Like many of our customers, we can’t wait to get our hands on the SP/300.R. As in the UK, the popularity of track day driving is rocketing and the new vehicle is ideal for anybody who wants a reliable and cost-effective vehicle with very serious but accessible performance,” said Team Vice President and Sporting Director, Chris Dyson.
“The SP/300.R is an amazing car. It mirrors the technology and the appearance of the Lola Le Mans prototypes that our team campaigns in the American Le Mans Series, but has been carefully-designed to be affordable.”
