KTM X-Bow Gets Double Win on Race Debut
At the season opener GT4 European Cup at Silverstone Circuit in the UK this past Saturday, KTM's two X-Bow cars, run by German racing specialists Reiter Engineering score class wins in the new GT4 Sports Light series. Additionally, both X-Bows driven by Catharina Felser (DE) and Loris Bicocchi (IT) finished seventh and eleventh overall in the first race, and fifth and sixth in the second race amongst a starting field of 16 cars which including 400hp Aston Martin N24s, Corvettes and Mustangs. Entry into the GT4 racing series is the last phase of rigorous race track testing for the X-Bow prior to series production beginning this summer. Next race for Reiter Engineering will take place on May 16-18 at Monza, Italy.
Never liked these freakishly weird styles ...
The styling is off this planet. But I like it a lot. And it seems to be quick, too!
"finished seventh and eleventh overall in the first race, and fifth and sixth in the second race" correct me if I am wrong, but that doesn't sound like a double win.
they also had a weight and tire penalty to keep them back from an overall win

They one their class in a field of several classes. The overall placement indicates how well they faired against much more powerful cars in different classes.
A weekend with Katherine Felser and an X-Bow would be nearly perfect. :-)
nice I really like this car, can it race agains the lotus eleven?
