The De Tomaso marque might be set for a return to international motorsport for the first time in over a quarter of a century.
Instagram blogger Daniel Weber has sniffed out a story for his lemanshypercarnews page with very significant direct input from the reborn supercar maker that suggests a road car-based LMH HyperCar is on the cards alongside the company’s forthcoming road going P72 supercar (the road car is seen below at the 2019 Goodwood Festival of Speed)
The proposed LMH car is reported to be set to be powered by a V12 engine.
If the project proves to be a reality it will see the De Tomaso brand back into contemporary Sportscar racing for the first time since the ADA Engineering and Superpower fielded Dallara-built Pantera that saw action from 1994-97 including an entry at Le Mans in 1994, the British GT Championship (including a title in 1995 for Thorkild Thyrring) and BPR.
