SUPERSTARS, the new race series based on an Italian Championship and on an international calendar approved by FIA, and ZAKSPEED, one of the most successful german raceteams – the only private one taking an active part in FORMULA 1 1985-1990 – have signed an allembracing co-operation agreement to develop and to built SUPERSTARS racecars (see picture attached).
ZAKSPEED’s first racecar to be developed and to be built for SUPERSTARS will be based on a CHRYSLER 300C SRT 8.

The preproduction model already will be shown by the end of the year at the ESSEN MOTOR SHOW in Germany.
“First tests are set up for early January 2008” Peter Zakowski, owner of ZAKSPEED, says. “The “ZAKSPEED 300C SRT 08” will be developed for international markets and customers. ZAKSPEED will not only provide the car, but as well a relevant as a desired service at the track, depending on the customers necessities.” Also ZAKSPEED will provide any technical and logistic infrastructure for the races itself.
The synergy between SUPERSTARS and ZAKSPEED is eminent due to the professionalism of both parties.
“We are well aware of the knowledge of ZAKSPEED in developing racecars. They have been developing-partner and manufacturer team for e.g. FORD, MERCEDES, OPEL, PORSCHE etc. Also ZAKSPEED was mainly involved in creating and setting up the race series V8 S.T.A.R. as well as developing and producing these outstanding racecars” Vincenzo Lamaro, Managing Director of FGSPORT, says. “And with more than 400 races won and lots of national and international titels ZAKSPEED has testified that their evolutions are successful”.

As manufacturer-team ZAKSPEED has been successful for years for e.g. Ford, Mercedes, Opel etc. .
In 1990 ZAKSPEED founded the 1st permanent race-driving school, located at Nürburgring.

The 3 times overall-winner of the int. 24h-race at the Nürburgring-Northerloop makes DODGE the leader of the field of international manufacturers.
2000 until 2003 ZAKSPEED has been involved radically in the V8 S.T.A.R. race series, not only winning races and titels as well as the drivers-mastership, but also in developing the racecars and servicing the series.
