1957 Aston Martin DBR2

1957 Aston Martin DBR2 racer car

Rizk Automobile rebuilt the 1957 Aston Martin with the challenge of using modern Technology. The 1957 Aston Martin DBR2 LeMans Race car epitomizes the pinnacle of beautiful mechanical design, when cars were still being described as sexy.

The 1957 Aston Martin DBR2 Revival features a space-frame chassis made of carbon monocoque. Rizk uses a material called Carbon-Nomex for the body panels (carbon panels with Nomex honeycomb). It has energy absorption and shear properties, is fire retardant and has a pretty high strength-to-weight ratio.
