Building the world’s most powerful engines is the focus of this customer. They came to us with an interest in using carbon fiber to reduce weight and increase engine capability.
We worked with them to develop parts that were significantly lighter than the originals and would also withstand the heat of a race car engine. The result – high performance parts that are now standard in certain engines. And those engines are winning races again and again.
