A racing car manufacturer, Olsbergs MSE, is introducing a recycling initiative to update its longest-serving product, the SuperCar Lites platform. This platform has been the chosen vehicle for second-tier feeder championships in rallycross. The new initiative, led by FirstCorner, will recycle and update the existing Lites car to provide an additional rung on the off-road and rallycross training ladder. The updated FC2 concept will feature a new composite body, improved suspension, steering, and an increase in horsepower from 310 bhp to 550 bhp. The conversion will allow the FC2 to compete in the highest level of combustion rallycross, providing a cost-effective transition from the existing Lites category. Approximately 24 out of 55 Lites cars currently in use will be eligible for the conversion, with the cost estimated at €75,000. The FC2 conversion will go on sale next month, with deliveries expected in April-May of next year.
