KWM planning closed prototype.

After working alongside the Creation Autosportif 𝔉team to develop the current CA06/H, KW Motorsport has announced plans to a build a coupe LMP1 prototype for the 2007 season.

Following the announcement that the ACO wants to see closed roof prototypes at Le Mans b🍌y 2010, KWM has now followed in the footsteps of Lola by unveiling pictures of its proposed new car - which would be based on the current Creation car.

"We are investigating in parallel an open top and coupe version of the existing Creation CA06," KWM's Kieron Salter e꧙xplained. "Whatever we do we will require a new monocoque for next year and we feel confident that a coupe version would be an appropriate route to go for the works effort with Creation, while an open top versioꦺn for LMP2 would be ideal for customers.

"This is a KWM design for Creation and although Creation would be the works entrant and the primary development partner, there is always an interest in building further cars for cust💙omer teams."

Salter added that early development of a coupe car would ꦡallow the teams using it to prepare better for the regulation changes at Le Mans in the coming years.

"The development of a coupe for next year or even 2008 would give us a strong technical basis for the recently announced ACO 2010 LMP prototype regulations and make the transition into 2010 easier wi🐈th confidence in the existing package," he said. "However, we're not waiting for 2010 we are looking forward into next year."
