## Racing History

### Debut

2022 Horizon Ultimate Season

The **Race Motors X1GR** is a track prototype racecar designed by Race Motors. Name meaning X1G Revision, it's an update on its predecessor's design, the Race Motors X1G Evolution, with optimized airflow and higher power engine with more downforce, to allow it to remain stable throughout a race.

Like the X1G before it, it is constructed completely of carbon fibre, runs with extreme emphasis on ground effect, and weighs like a featherweight. This car also improves on the aerodynamics of the previous car, with more effective aero, a spoiler attached in the wing, wing flaps to increase downforce or decrease drag, and more airflow with intakes.

There are 2 variants of the car with their chassis codes being named #02A for the V10 variant, and #02B for the F8 variant. #02A can reach a speed of 135 BPS, and 36 in 2.4s, while #02B can reach 138 BPS and 36 in 2.3s. There are no otherwise differences between them.

## Reviews

The X1GR was delivered to select drivers to test in January 2022 in NDA until March. Some reviews stated that the car "handled beautifully" and "sounded unlike anything else on the market". Praising the strong performance and stability, and design over previous generations. Most stated a desire for a production version due to its extreme performance traits on a track. They criticized its poor run time, however. The car needs lengthy servicing after every stint and tyres would not last very long under the extreme pressure by ground effect (presumably). Fuel economy is very poor and batteries are not very efficient due to the power needs of the car.

## History

After the success of the X1G Evo's debut, Race Motors sought to improve their already incredible car, and designed a new revision of it for better high end stability, and safety. With the showcase of the Race Motors Ultima M design study, the car was brought into the world. With optimizations for high speeds, the car can maintain its powerband for longer with new cooling systems, and corner better at high speeds with its improved aero. They also wanted to test their first V-Configuration engine, with a highly requested V10 design.

## Trivia

* Due to its extensive aero configuration, this is Race Motors' longest car, and also the largest car relative to its wheelbase. Its wheelbase dimensions are 4x3 and its size is 12x5, rivaling 5x3 cars.
* Planned to run in the Blockmans, this car was pulled out after concerns of distrust and mishandlement, and limitations imposed by the incorrect placement into regulations of the Blockmans GT class. Race Motors stated that it would be best if the car remained in safe hands, and limited by no regulations as it should be.
* After the Blockmans incident, no driver is allowed near the X1GR without an official license from Raceplays themselves.
* This car runs bespoke tyres, dubbed the 00 X1 ABS - Double-0 Absolute.
* The sizes are (325-290)/35 R19 93Y for the X1GR.
