Aston Martin racing brings new challenger to Le Mans circuit

  • Aston Martin #racing debuts Razor Crazy Cart at Circuit de la Sarthe
  • Cart receives #astonmartin bespoke treatment from Q by #astonmartin service
  • Drivers take opportunity to discover some new “lines” at Le Mans

Thursday 16 June: #astonmartin #racing drivers have taken to the Le Mans circuit in something a little more tail happy, after trading in their 24 Hours of Le Mans #v8vantagegte challengers.

Ahead of the 84th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the team’s factory drivers took to the track in uniquely modified Razor Crazy Carts. Despite pushing the carts to their limits, the trio managed to avoid a visit to the gravel traps, while discovering a new way to take on the Dunlop Bridge complex.

Trimmed and painted by Aston Martin’s ‘Q by Aston Martin’ personalisation service, the world famous drift and drive machines have been given the full bespoke treatment.  Sporting a full hand stitched leather & alcantara seat, steering wheel and Stirling Green hand-painted body, the carts have received the same level of craftsmanship and attention to detail as the recently launched Vantage GT8; the car inspired by the #v8vantagegte racers at Le Mans this weekend.

Darren Turner (GB) of GTE Pro entry 95 said following his stint in the cart, “It’s always great to test something a little bit different and this was no exception. This is my 14th year here at Le Mans and I’ve never driven anything so sideways on this circuit. We’re a competitive bunch and as soon as the helmets were on, this race was no different.”

Richie Stanaway (NZ) of sister GTE Pro entry 97 added, “It’s a little bit wilder than my #v8vantagegte, but I’ve definitely mastered the 360o powerslide. When I’m not #racing in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, you’ll now find me behind the wheel of this little racer instead.”
