Saker Sportscars

Not many have heard of the Dutch manufacturer Saker, so I shall take it upon myself to help spread the word on this talented group of individuals.

Saker Sportscars 

The company produces 4 models (1 road car). The RapX, Sniper, GT and Sprint.

The company dates back to its beginning in 2002 and are known for both hosting the Saker Sportscar Challenges in the Netherlands and England.

They're also known for their pure love for perfection in automotive racecars and their hunger for the #1 spot at the podium. Majority of Saker products are sold in and around Europe.




Saker RapX

The Rap X is a LeMans style closedwheel body (Fiberglass GRP) which is powered by an EJ25 engine ... yes.. that's correct.

It utilizes Subaru's 2.0L flat 4 turbo. The same engine you'd find in an STi, however it has been tuned to 275BHP @ 350Nm of torque. (Why? Think about low center of gravity.. FRS/BRZ/Porsche should come to mind).

The chassis consists of a steel space frame with adjustable double wishbones making up the suspension.

The brakes are tarox 6-pot calipers with slotted discs thus giving the vehicles entire combined weight a mere 785kg! Acceleration is listed at 0-100 in 3.4 sec (up to 2.1G)

Wheel base: 258cm
Length: 428cm
Width: 183cm
Height: 94cm
Ride Height: 5cm (adjustable)
