| Additional Info: This car was designed by racing driver Aljosa Tusek of Slovenia using Oliver Ashleys’ K1 Attack car as it’s base. The Tushek Renovatio T500 was unveiled at the Top Marques Monaco Show in April 2012 and is a lightweight roadster with a detachable hardtop and side windows, adjustable rear wing and a carbon fibre/composite body. Weight distribution is 47/53 front/rear. It also features a spaceframe chassis, integrated roll cage, double wishbone suspension, carbon ceramic brakes and a mid-mounted, 4.2-litre, direct-injection V8 from the Audi RS4 or an R8, mated to a six-speed box from the S5. The interior uses much carbon fibre and also gets A/C, a CD player, USB connection, mp3 player, bluetooth, snap off steering wheel, and alcantara interior for comfort. There are a number of optional extras, such as a track pack that readies the car for racing, a track day aerodynamics kit and much more. Only around 30 will be built. Now called the TS500 with new business partner Jacob Carl Spigel joining the company. |
