D1
The Palatov D1, designed by Dennis Palatov and produced by Palatov Motorsport in Portland, Oregon, represents American lightweight track car delivering professional race car performance at fraction of the cost. The D1 features 3.0-liter Hartley V8 engine producing 430 horsepower in chassis weighing just 499 kg (1,100 lb), achieving remarkable 1,000 horsepower-per-ton power-to-weight ratio. The all-wheel-drive system with advanced electropneumatic paddle shift transmission makes this extreme power usable, while chassis design extracts over 1.5g cornering force from DOT-legal performance tires. Dimensions measure 113 inches length, 80-inch wheelbase, 68 inches width, and 39 inches height.
The D1 features optional one-piece carbon fiber body shell and advanced underbody aerodynamics with full-length tunnels optimizing downforce and stability at high speeds. Available in multiple engine configurations ranging from 250+ horsepower to 500+ horsepower depending on customer requirements and budget, the D1 offers scalable performance from capable track day car to professional racing machine. The combination of extreme lightweight construction, powerful V8 engine, sophisticated all-wheel-drive system, and advanced aerodynamics delivers performance comparable to much more expensive professional race cars, making the Palatov D1 compelling choice for serious track enthusiasts seeking ultimate performance and driver engagement.
