Jesse Grose

April 13, 2020

Existing since 1974, CMS Motorsport has been a staple of hill climb and circuit racing in Italy. With their first in-house chassis debuting in 2001. The first chassis, the CMS 01, being built for the CN4 class and utilizing a 3.0L Alfa Romeo V6 engine; With varying degrees of success in circuit and hill climb competitions. A few years later in 2003, CMS debuted their second chassis, the CMS 02. The CMS 02 was built with a 2.0L Alfa Romeo inline-4, specially for an Italian hill climb class. Their third chassis came to the sports prototype market in 2015 and their newest chassis in the process of being built. In between making their own in-house chassis, CMS Motorsport provides car preparation and trackside service for many different prototype brands throughout Europe. Competing in hill climb, sprint races, and endurance championships within Italy and central Europe.

CMS 03 CN2

CMS Motorsport’s CMS 03 CN2 chassis debuted in 2015. Much like Osella’s PA21 S & P variants, the CMS 03 CN2 is a mixed-use designed prototype. Built for hill climb and circuit racing competitions, not just optimized for one or the other. The chassis is steel tube-frame with riveted aluminum paneling and the bodywork is fiberglass weighing in at 538 Kg (1,183 lbs). The chassis was not specially built for FIA CN competition, but it was built to the same standard as FIA CN. Two-seat chassis design with a 2.0L Honda K20 (FD2) engine producing upwards of 270 hp. With CMS utilizing the common Hewland FTR gearbox and Teknogear paddle shift system.

CMS 04 E2SC LRM

The newly designed and still-in-progress CMS 04 E2SC LRM chassis will be a bit more powerful and have a more aggressive aerodynamic package than its’ predecessor. Using an LRM Motors built 2.5L Honda FD2 engine boasting a whopping 352 hp. The chassis will still have the same construction of steel tube-frame and aluminum paneling. The chassis, in total, will weigh in at 515 Kg (1,133 lbs), owing to optimized chassis and bodywork design.

Eligible Championships

Both the CMS 03 CN2 and the CMS 04 E2SC LRM are fairly close in chassis design and layout, similar to FIA CN or E2SC (hill climb) regulations. For that reason, these cars are fairly well rounded and great for many different championships. The CMS 03 CN2 and the CMS 04 E2SC LRM would be eligible for the following series: Sports Car Club of America (SCCA), NASA Pro Racing (NASA), FARA USA, PBOC, Endurance Brasil, Australian Prototype Series, AvD Sportscar Challenge, Master Tricolore Prototipi, FIA European Hillclimb, Italian Hill Climb, and more.

Dealerships and Factory

CMS Motorsport is an independent race team and manufacturer, thus they keep a smaller footprint when it comes to franchising dealerships. Much like the other Italian prototype manufacturers, Osella and Tatuus, CMS keeps their sales, parts support, and fabrication in-house. If one was interested in purchasing or renting a chassis, you need to contact them directly: info@cmsracingcars.com

I also recommend visiting their website: https://www.cmsracingcars.com/ as they provide plenty of information regarding their services, chassis sales, race events, and used prototype sales.

Sports Prototype Spotlight #5 - FIA CN Sports Prototypes

Jesse Grose

April 8, 2020

FIA CN

The FIA CN class of sports prototypes is pretty vague for most individuals within racing outside of Europe. It is a class that many sports prototype manufacturers have designed and built cars for, although outside of Europe, these cars are mixed into many of the national and regional categories with similar regulations. A good example of this is Sports Car Club of America’s P1 and P2 class. The earlier generation CN prototypes fit into the P2 class, while the newest generation fits into the P1 class.

The FIA CN class was started in the mid 1990’s, loosely based off the SR2 prototype class of FIA International Sports Racing Series (FIA ISRS) and FIA Sports Racing World Cup (FIA SRWC). FIA CN cars were included in the 1998 FIA ISRS championship, as the CN class; underneath SR1 and SR2 classes. They were primarily using six cylinder engines, Alfa Romeo V6 and BMW inline-6 mostly. A stark contrast to the Honda 2.0L, Renault 2.0L, and Peugeot 1.6L Turbos used in today’s FIA CN sports prototypes.

The FIA CN class can effectively be split into three generations based on regulations, build materials, and chassis design. The first generation being from the mid-1990’s to the late-2000’s. Where the cars were using a variety of engines and engine sizes, bodies were fiberglass, chassis were steel tube-frame with aluminum paneling, and gearboxes were transitioning from H-pattern in the beginning to bump-sequential towards the end of the 2000’s.

The second generation, starting around 2010 to around 2016, would see a shift in engine preference and chassis construction. Although not specifically allowed by 2011 FIA CN regulations, carbon fiber started making its’ way into the category. With Wolf Racing Cars being one of the first manufacturers to introduce a carbon tub for their Wolf GB08 chassis. At the start of this generation, most chassis were built the same as the first generation; Fiberglass bodies and steel tube-frame with aluminum paneling. However, with the introduction of carbon fiber into the class, cars built at the end of the generation were starting to see carbon fiber tubs. While other manufacturers still used a steel tube-frame design, some chassis were starting to use carbon fiber paneling as opposed to the previous aluminum panels. The engine of choice was clear, the 2.0L Mugen Honda K20. A very stable, production-car based inline-4 engine that was very reliable and produced around 250 hp. As well, SADEV and Hewland were the main choices of sequential gearboxes for chassis manufacturers. Paddle shift systems were also introduced in this time frame, becoming quicker and more precise than the more “analog” bump-shift sequential that were common in previous years.

The final generation, which ranges from 2016 to now, has shown an almost complete shift to carbon fiber for the most competitive manufacturers; Carbon fiber tubs, carbon fiber bodywork, and carbon fiber aerodynamic parts. The engine preference has changed again, with some manufacturers exclusively using a turbocharged Peugeot 1.6L inline-4 and others still using the 2.0L Honda K20 engine.

One of the most incredible parts of the FIA CN class is that these prototypes are essentially open in design, with just a few size restrictions and the mandate of a two-seat cockpit design. The gearbox has to have six gears plus reverse and engine can be 1000cc all the way to 3000cc with varying ballast balancing the chassis and engine performance. Engines can only have a maximum of six cylinders, but no restrictions on engine layouts (inline, flat, boxer, V, etc). The cars are required to have a flat bottom, as opposed to tunnels like Group C in the 1980’s; although no restriction on wing type or splitter shape, for the exception of size limitations. As you can see in the photos above, these somewhat open-ended regulations helped provide a massive variety of chassis designs. Putting the minds of many keen engineers to work, trying to find the best aerodynamic solutions. Completely shelving the boring idea of one-make spec series and capturing the essence of what sports prototypes and Le Mans prototypes were meant to be.

Another brilliant part of the FIA CN class, is that the cars fit into most championships extremely well. In North America, you can find FIA CN chassis competing in SCCA’s P1 and P2 championships, NASA’s Super Unlimited, FARA USA’s FP-2 class, HSR and SVRA’s Group-11 modern sports racers, and in varied endurance races across the United States and Canada. In South and Central America, these cars are eligible for most of the large endurance races like the 6 Hours of Peru and 6 Hours of Bogota, as well as series like Endurance Brasil. In Africa, FIA CN cars can run throughout South Africa, in sprint racing, hillclimbs, and their national endurance championship (South African Endurance Series). You could also race them in Angola and at Dakar’s Circuit de Dakar Baobabs. Within Europe, you have series like Master Tricolore Prototipi, V De V, Trophee Tourisme Endurance Free Proto, and Ultimate Cup Series that cater directly to an FIA CN class. Whereas FIA Central European Zone, Belcar Endurance, Dutch Supercar Challenge, and many other regional and national series allow FIA CN sports prototypes to race in a prototype based class. At one point, Asian Le Mans Series had a class specifically for CN prototypes. As well in Australia, the Australian Prototype Series allows them into a general prototype classification.

Since 2015, LMP3 has (for the most part) officially replaced FIA CN as the stepping stone into European Le Mans Series’ LMP2 class. For this reason, popularity for the CN sports prototypes have fallen in favor of the newer LMP3 class. With only a handful of manufacturers actively pursuing development and creation of FIA CN prototypes. Other manufacturers are still supporting previously built chassis, but no longer interested in building a new FIA CN model.

The used (secondhand) market for FIA CN cars is strong at the moment, with some of the later generation cars going for $57,000 USD to around $90,000 USD in very good condition. Making these cars an excellent purchase for those looking to track day, race in sprint racing, hill climb, or race in endurance races.

Sports Prototype Spotlight #4 - Tatuus

Jesse Grose

April 6, 2020

Since 1980, Tatuus has been involved in the motorsport industry. Heavily involved with the design, manufacturing, and sales of bespoke formula cars for aspiring and new championships. Since 2000, the company has been providing chassis for series like Formula Renault 2.0, Formula Masters, and Formula Toyota. As well, Tatuus was the catalyst in the creation of many Formula 4 championships in Europe and Asia. With most series in Europe utilizing Tatuus’ purpose-built Formula 4 chassis. In 2012, Tatuus debuted their model for FIA’s CN sports prototype competitions, the PY 012. Tatuus has become one of the largest producers of formula cars in the world, producing in excess of 1700 cars since 2000.

Tatuus PY 012

The Tatuus PY 012 is an FIA CN2 regulated sports prototype. Like most of the more modern CN (or CN2) class competition, the PY 012 has a fully FIA certified carbon fiber tub. The body is fiberglass, for the exception of the rear wing. Which brings this chassis’ weight to 535 Kg (1,177 lbs). Tatuus designed this sports prototype with versatility in mind. It was built for sprint racing, endurance, and hillclimb competition. Like Praga’s R1T Evo, Tatuus takes a different approach to sports prototype chassis design with a much reduced side pod area, separate front and rear fenders, and a higher front nose. The car is powered by a 2.0-liter Mugen Honda K20 engine (that produces 255 hp), mated to a SADEV six speed sequential gearbox with paddle shifters.

Eligible Championships

With the Tatuus PY 012 being an FIA CN homologated sports prototype, it is quite versatile. This car is eligible for most hillclimb competitions. As well, the car is eligible for the following championships: Sports Car Club of America (SCCA), NASA Pro Racing (NASA), FARA USA, PBOC, Endurance Brasil, Australian Prototype Series, Belcar Endurance, Master Tricolore Prototipi, FIA Central European Zone, Dutch Supercar Challenge, Ultimate Cup Series (CN), and more.

Sports Prototype Spotlight #3 - Mittell Cars

Jesse Grose

April 2, 2020

Mittell Cars was started by a father and son duo, Ian and Scott Mittell. In 2012, they debuted their first chassis to the 750 Motor Club Sports 1000 championship, the MC-51. After the first season, they decided to try a different approach and redeveloped the chassis and bodywork completely. This newly redeveloped chassis was named MC-52. The second iteration of their original car debuted in 2013 and was continuously developed until they managed to win the 2015 Sports 1000 championship. The following year, the father and son duo introduced their third and current Sports 1000 chassis; the MC-53. In 2019, the duo introduced a more advanced chassis, the MC-41R. This chassis was built to be a direct competitor to the Radical SR3s and Radical Prosports of the 750 Motor Club’s Bikesports championship.

Mittell Cars MC-53

Introduced to 750 Motor Club Sports 1000 competition in 2016, the MC-53 quickly matched pace in the highly contested series. Scoring two runner-up positions within the Sports 1000 championship in 2017 and 2018, followed by winning the 2019 Sports 1000 championship. This chassis was built specially for Sports 1000 competition. Following an aerodynamic restrictive chassis formula that mandates a lack of rear wings and ground-effect aerodynamic parts. The formula also mandates a small capacity four-cycle motorcycle engine. With this particular chassis usually using a GSXR 1000 or CBR 1000 motorcycle engine, producing around 175 bhp at the wheels. The chassis has a steel tube-frame build with riveted aluminum paneling. Like many other sports prototypes, this chassis uses fiberglass for the bodywork. Making this chassis weigh in at 490 Kg (roughly 1078 lbs).

Mittell Cars MC-41R

Debuted in 2019, the MC-41R was designed and built for the 750 Motor Club’s Bikesport championship. Unlike its’ cousin, the MC-53, this chassis is substantially more advanced in aerodynamics . Series regulations allow much larger four-cycle motorcycle engines and have no limits on aerodynamics or tires. Regardless of a more advanced rules formula, 2019 was a great showing for the MC-41R. With the chassis taking five outright wins against Radical SR3s and Radical Prosports (PR6) in the MC-41R’s debut season. Like the MC-53, this chassis retains the same construction, steel tube-frame with riveted aluminum paneling. The body is fiberglass, however this chassis has a larger front splitter, rear wing, and a rear diffuser. As well, the MC-41R retains the GSXR 1000 engine, but it now produces upwards of 205 bhp at the wheels. All of this together brings the chassis weight to 465 Kg (roughly 1,023 lbs).

Eligible Championships

Much like the Osella sports prototypes, Mittell Cars are a popular manufacturer for national specific category competition (Sports 1000 and Bikesports). With that being said, there are many championships across the globe that these cars would be great for. The chassis may be eligible for the following championships: 750 Motor Club Sports 1000, 750 Motor Club Bikesports, Sports Car Club of America (SCCA), NASA Pro Racing (NASA), PBOC, FARA USA, FRP Prototype Championship, Australian Prototype Championship, CASC Formula Libre, and more.

Dealerships and Factory

Since Mittell Cars is a relatively new independent and family owned business, they run their own dealership and car rental programs through their own base of operations.

Sports Prototype Spotlight #2 - Osella Engineering S.r.l.

Jesse Grose

April 1, 2020

Osella Engineering has spent over 50 years in both professional and amateur motorsport. Ranging from the Le Mans Prototypes of the early and mid-seventies, to being one of Italy’s prolific Formula 1 chassis constructors. Their cars featured in everything from the World Sportscar Championship, FIA European hillclimb championships, and more. Now days, their main focus is that of sports prototypes built for hillclimb competition and circuit events with two main categories of chassis and seven different iterations of models based on engine package, driver position, and aerodynamics. These two categories are referenced as PA and FA chassis. All of their chassis variants are steel tube-frame built with carbon fiber paneling. As well, their bodywork is typically made of fiberglass, the exception being the rear wings and some aerodynamic add-ons.

Osella PA21 Jr. B

The PA21 Jr. B chassis is based on their FIA CN class chassis (two-seat design), though it is powered by a motorcycle engine usually between 1000cc and 1600cc in size. Like several of Osella’s chassis variants, this model is optimized for hillclimb competition with special aerodynamic additions to suit these racing conditions.

Osella PA21S Evo CN and Osella PA21P Evo CN

The PA21S Evo and PA21P Evo chassis are Osella’s answer to FIA’s CN sports prototype class competition. Both chassis are relatively identical for the exception of some evolution in development between the chassis. These cars are very suitable to both circuit applications and the European/Italian Hillclimb Championship’s E2B and E2-SC(CN) classes. Powered by the FIA CN standard Honda K20 engine, producing 250+ HP, mated to a SADEV six-speed sequential gearbox; typically with a paddle shifter system.

Osella PA2000 Evo

Like the PA21S Evo and PA21P Evo above, this chassis shares the same design lineage. However, the chassis has been specially optimized as Osella’s budget-level two-seater for hillclimb competition. Likewise, this chassis retains the 2000cc (2 Liter) Honda K20 engine, but operates outside of FIA CN’s 255 HP envelope. Giving the engine an extra seventy or so horsepower, bringing the estimated total to 320 HP at 9,000 RPM. Bringing this PA2000 Evo closer to Osella’s V8 powered chassis, but on a budget level. This chassis also retains the SADEV gearbox of its’ circuit racing cousins.

Osella PA30 Zytek V8

The PA30 Zytek V8, is Osella’s top two-seat chassis. The distinctions between this chassis and the other PA variant models, are fairly simple. More hillclimb optimized aerodynamics and custom rear bodywork to accommodate the addition of a screaming three liter (3000cc) Zytek V8 engine based on the now defunct Formula 3000’s engine regulations. The Zytek V8 engine producing a ground pounding 450+ HP. In addition, the SADEV gearbox was retained for this model and engine.

Osella FA30 Zytek V8 and Osella FA30 EVO V8 RPE

The last two chassis variants from Osella are from the FA range of chassis. A center-seat monocoque designed chassis built specially for the most intense hillclimb competition. Again, with special aerodynamic considerations to hillclimb conditions and keeping the massive power of the Zytek or RPE V8 engines to the ground. Like the PA30 Zytek V8 chassis above, these cars are powered by a three liter (3000cc) V8 engine. Although this time with a choice of two fire-breathing V8s, the Zytek V8 or an RPE built V8 (similar to that of Wolf’s GB08S three liter RPE V8). With the Zytek producing 450+ HP and the RPE at 470 HP. Again, both of the FA variants retaining the SADEV six-speed sequential gearbox.

Eligible Championships

These chassis, are not too common outside of Europe at the moment. However, based on current prototype regulations, these cars are eligible for the following championships globally: Sports Car Club of America [SCCA], NASA Pro Racing [NASA], FARA USA, Endurance Brasil, Belcar Endurance, Dutch Supercar Challenge, South African Endurance Championship, Australian Prototype Championship, FRP Prototype Championship, Master Tricolore Prototipi, and many others.

Dealerships and Factory

There are no known dealerships outside of the factory in Turin, Italy. However, here is the brand website where you can learn more about the brand and contact them if you are interested in purchasing a chassis:
