We race today because racing is part and parcel of the Saleen corporate DNA. We’ve raced and won championships with our Mustangs since the beginning and the S7 was conceived to combine the performance of a track-only race car with the driving pleasure of a road car.
Unlike most exotic supercars, the Saleen S7 racing version, the S7R, has already proven itself on the international motor sports stage. During the past three years, the racing version has been on pole and set fastest race lap more than 50 times and has won nearly 40 races around the world. This incredible record includes capturing several GT Manufacturers’ championships and GT Drivers’ championships, winning the grueling 12 Hours of Sebring and setting a new track record at the famed 24 Hours of Le Mans.
During the past 20 years Saleen has won eight Manufacturers’ Championships in GT sports car racing and several Drivers’ Championships as well.
Currently, the S7R competes in the American Le Mans Series in North America, campaigned by ACEMCO, sponsored by Pirelli and driven by Terry Borcheller and Johnny Mowlem. In Europe Saleen S7Rs continue to win poles, set fastest race laps and win races in the highly competitive FIA GT Championship.
