If you are a billionaire looking for a new supercar to add to your garage, meet the Aston Martin Vulcan. This track-only supercar is what Aston Martin is calling their “most intense and exhilarating creation to date.” Developed in conjunction with Aston Martin Racing, the supercar features a V12 7.0 Liter engine on a similar base to AM’s GT3 race car.
Like many supercars, the engine is located right behind the front axle, which allows for improved handling and better center of gravity. The 600E gearbox “houses a straight-cut gearset with drop gears to the crown wheel and pinion and, at 200+ mph, is geared for a higher top speed” than AM’s other GT race cars.

Here are the key team members responsible for bringing the thrilling Aston Martin Vulcan to life.” ~ Aston Martin
