Bitter GT1 Story
The former works driver Mike Hezemans from the Netherlands, had the feeling that the main flaw of the Elise GT1 were her strength and aerodynamics.
So it was decided that the car should not be abandoned. The purchase of two former EliseGT1 chassis, was the starting point. Hezemans asked Bitter cars from Germany to change the car. In one experiment, the front end was were longer and smoother to increase downforce. To the Elise GT1 with Chevrolet V8 was sought power by Hezemans and bitter for more. They turned to Chrysler, and decided to purchase a Viper GTS-R 8.0L V10, which were used in their GT2 class race car. The new cars were bitter GT1s named, and promised to be very competitive in the 1998 FIA GT Championship. The only race in which they actually competed, Silverstone, both looked Bitters the checkered flag. After the failure, (also past to obtain initial practice at the Hockenheimring), the project was canceled.
