Foudre R-1600GTT Turbo
In order for Azeili to enter the highly competitive TWM category back in 1965, a total of 130 road going-machines had to be built.
After this order had been set in place by the FIA, Azeili's board of directors have decided to modify an existing vehicle into a Machine..
A Monster Machine which only focused on speed.. nothing more.
And so, it was decided that the R-1600GTT be built.. Having a 2.6L, Four Rotor, Quad Turbo and Supercharged setup.. It was the ultimate combination which resulted in almost a decade of dominance in the TWM
Powering all four wheels with 876hp @ 14,000rpm, It had superb handling, gripping any corner thrown at it.. then blasting through the competition.
130 units were sold to the general public, 4 of which have been painted in the special Midnight Blue.. (All four ended up in the hands of Mid Night Club members, who then tuned and boosted them up to 3,000hp and above.)
The Board of Directors, after seeing a massive success in the GTT's sales, decided to bump up production to 1,200 units.
GTTs can be seen in the Wangan.. Awaiting their next target.
