Rumors are circulating that the car will have over 485kW and covered in carbonfibre bodywork. And it will need specifications like this if it wants to be the quickest around the German track.

Not much more is known about the supercar except that it was designed by ex-Ford man Daniel Paulin.

The GTX will be going on sale next year as planned and could have been the successor of the dramatic Dodge Viper. But since business went a bit pear shape in a deal with Scott Devon the company has taken the responsibility to go it alone.

Stylistically the car has very close relations to the TVR but that massive engine will insure that American muscle car heritage is not lost.
