Would you like to see it become a reality for you?
Formula 1 was the pinnacle in on-road racing. It is an international motorsport where many professional racers have been able to take the world by storm. F1 cars are renowned for their engineering and design. This makes them an inspiration for many builders around the globe.
Aeromaster, a Bulgarian company, is one of them. The company makes Bentley Speed 8 LMP race car clones. However, the owners use their Formula 1 inspiration to create a rally raid, offroad buggy.
It’s strange, yes, but it’s something we can appreciate after about five minutes of staring.
The goal of an off-road buggy is to create something unique. Aeromaster’s prototype is wildly different than its stripped-down contemporaries and has succeeded in achieving this goal. It’s a bizarre shape, with a choice of livery – it’s a mix between a Tamiya RC vehicle, F1 cars from the past, and a fighter plane.
Aeromaster stated on its website that “The purpose for our design is use the Formula 1 cars to inspire, since I have always loved the beautiful looks of F1 cars, as well formula 1’s key ingredients, which are aerodynamic and smooth silhouettelines, speed, excitement, and performance with the sport’s emerging narratives, etc.”
F1 is not the only source of inspiration. They also claimed that they used some Baja racing car styling in the design. This unique buggy has a longitudinal, mid-mounted V8 of 4.2-liters.
This buggy with its butterfly doors is not for everyone. Creators of the rally raid buggy know this and have called it a “crazy dream for many years.”
