We
race today because racing is part
and parcel of the Saleen corporate
DNA. We’ve raced and won
championships with our Mustangs
since the beginning and the S7
was conceived to combine the performance
of a track-only race car with
the driving pleasure of a road
car.
Unlike
most exotic supercars, the Saleen
S7 racing version, the S7R, has
already proven itself on the international
motor sports stage. During the
past three years, the racing version
has been on pole and set fastest
race lap more than 50 times and
has won nearly 40 races around
the world. This incredible record
includes capturing several GT
Manufacturers’ championships
and GT Drivers’ championships,
winning the grueling 12 Hours
of Sebring and setting a new track
record at the famed 24 Hours of
Le Mans.
During
the past 20 years Saleen has won
eight Manufacturers’ Championships
in GT sports car racing and several
Drivers’ Championships as
well.
Currently,
the S7R competes in the American
Le Mans Series in North America,
campaigned by ACEMCO, sponsored
by Pirelli and driven by Terry
Borcheller and Johnny Mowlem.
In Europe Saleen S7Rs continue
to win poles, set fastest race
laps and win races in the highly
competitive FIA GT Championship.

SR 351 in the SCCA Speed World
Challenge GT series.”—Steve
