gumball 3000 is here to celebrate its 15th anniversary and as previously announced saudi arabian team galag has taken a brave step further to make its appearance at the world famous supercar rally well memorable.
the squad has spent a good period of time and hours of work on their one-of-a-kind project – the tg1 supercar. it is based around nissan gt-r platform thus it keeps not only the engine but the original interior in the place, as well. however, the power aggregate has been well modified so the maximum power of the tg1’s heart is now over 750hp. team galag says its creation is capable of reaching a top speed of 340 km/h and to do 0-100 km/h sprint in a less than 3 seconds! no matter what, this car together with their batmobile tumbler will definitely be a true head-turners at the gumball 3000.
press release:
it has been one long trip but we are finally glad to announce that it’s done. we managed to pull it off just in time for the start of the 2013 gumball 3000. after a lot of sleepless nights, across three continents, we have the honor of introducing the galag tg1
based on a nissan gt-r platform, the galag tg1 produces a little over 750 bhp and 700lbft of torque. the engine was tuned by litchfield to reach a top speed of 340km/h with a 0-100km/h sprint in only 2.68 seconds and 0-160km/h in 5.68 seconds. with our revised, custom made, full carbon fiber body design by team galag and parker brother concepts, we have managed to reduce the weight to a mere 1630kg. featuring high intensity discharge headlight and 21′ custom wheels made by adv.1, this one of a kind creation will definitely turn heads where it goes.
