The Car
The Valencia R Sport rally car is a Volvo 240. Silver with stunning blue racing stripes, the car is a two-door coupe with a Volvo 2.3 liter EVO engine, a MoTec engine management system, a Group A five-speed dogbox sequential transmission, and a much strengthened, seam-welded body. With its front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout, the car must be driven "tail-out" and the fans greatly appreciate the wild corner powerslides of the Volvo.
Valencia Volvo Racing is also able to build Volvo racecars for track and rally racing. If you have the desire to win and the means necessary to build a first-rate race car, contact us.
