Greystone GT are delighted to announce that Brabham Automotive – has become an official partner ahead of our final Supercar Trackday at Circuit Spa-Francorchamps on September 30 (Monday).
The Australian manufacturer of the Brabham BT62 , whose name is synonymous with F1 world championship-winning success, attended our Supercar Trackday at Donington Park in June and have now chosen to expand their relationship with us for the remainder of the year.
The Brabham BT62 made its Greystone GT debut at our Donington Park Supercar Trackday in June
As a result, they will bring the stunning BT62 to Spa where Greystone GT customers can take a closer look at the mid-engined track-only masterpiece against the sort of iconic backdrop it was designed for. Brabham Automotive has also developed a road compliant version of the BT62 which is now available to customers, with first deliveries in early 2020.
The Brabham BT62 is designed as the ultimate track car, designed to demand more of the driver. It features Brabham’s own 710ps 5.4 litre, normally aspirated V8 driving with a 6-speed sequential racebred transmission. The chassis is a carbon-chromoly fusion featuring an integrated rollcage, all of which is draped with a lighweight carbon fibre body featuring an aero package offering 1200kg of downforce. Carbon-carbon brakes provide limitless stopping power and fully adjustable suspension from Ohlins completes the performance package.
In February 2019, the Brabham BT62 eclipsed the existing track record at Australia’s most iconic, and challenging circuit – Mount Panorama, at Bathurst. In November 2019, the BT62 will see its first competitive endurance race at Brands Hatch, in the final event of the 2019 Britcar season.
Dan Marks, Commercial Director for Brabham Automotive: “We are extremely pleased to give Greystone GT guests at Spa the opportunity to see this exclusive car up-close at one of the world’s most iconic motor racing venues during the ultimate in supercar-owner trackdays. Brabham Automotive has committed to its road to Le Mans which will incorporate a customer racing program – the first steps of which will be taken at Brands Hatch in just over six weeks. It will be great to showcase the Brabham BT62 in a track environment with like-minded racing and high-performance enthusiasts.”
Mark McLoughlin, Managing Director, Greystone GT, said: “We are delighted to announce this exciting partnership with Brabham Automotive, and to have such an iconic name join us at one of the most famous racetracks in the world, Spa-Francorchamps, is even better. Like Greystone GT, Brabham Automotive are a company who are not afraid to push the boundaries to create something sensational that we know our drivers will absolutely love.”
