TOYOTA Motorsport TMG GT86 Cup Series: Running Smoothly with RAVENOL
RAVENOL - 2017 Official Partner and Supplier to TOYOTA Motorsport TMG GT86 Cup Series
The TMG GT86 Cup is within the framework of the VLN Endurance Championship and held at Nürburgring-Nordschleife as a brand cup of Toyota Motorsport GmbH (TMG).
“TOYOTA is one of the most important automobile manufacturers in the world. For this reason, it is important for us to demonstrate the quality of our products in the cars from TOYOTA Motorsport GmbH,” says Martin Huning, Director Motorsport at RAVENOL. Huning added: “Motorsport is of great importance for the development of our lubricants. The message is obvious: what works perfectly under extreme circumstances on the race track, will more than satisfy the needs of a production car.”
RAVENOL worked on its technical assignment by subjecting its products to a performance upgrade according to the Toyota Motorsport GmbH specification – to be able to provide the TMG GT86 customers with perfectly adapted lubricants!
All the vehicles competing in the series will be equipped with lubricants from RAVENOL and are made available for the competitors as part of a spare-parts list. See below LINKS.
The TOYOTA GT86 engine is a 200 hp 2-liter flat-four engine, with the power being transferred by means of a 6-speed manual gearbox.
The modified RAVENOL RRS 5W-50 will be used in the engine.
And the gearboxes and differentials are lubricated with either RAVENOL VSG 75W-90 or RAVENOL SGO 80W-140.
