For 2008, Falken has teamed with Black Swan Racing in a Doran Enterprises built Ford GT-R to compete in the GT2 class.
Falken said that “although 2008 will be considered a development year in regards to both chassis tuning and race tire development, Falken Tire and Black Swan’s vision is to emerge triumphant in the U.S. made GT-R.”
“Our participation in American Le Mans is not only to further expose the motorsport masses and general public to the Falken brand, it’s also the ideal proving and testing grounds for future street tire technologies,” said Richard Smallwood, Falken’s president and COO. (Tire Review/Akron)
