The deliveries of the first 2017 spec 4.2 litre V8 LMP2 engines from Gibson Technology commenced on schedule this week, with all four of the approved chassis suppliers set to have received their first full race spec engines within the coming days.
The engines will be used to finalise installation packages for the Dallara, Onroak (Ligier), ORECA and Riley Multimatic chassis before track testing begins in the next few weeks.
Gibson is committed to provide an additional six engines before the end of October, with 10 more released for private testing by 1st December 2016.
The commitment to an initial production batch of 20 engines has already been doubled to a second batch of 20.
