2002 Cadillac LMP-02 Gallery
Designed under the direction of GM Racing by Nigel Stroud, the Cadillac LMP’s carbon fiber monocoque chassis and suspension components were fabricated in Brackley, England, and assembled at the team’s headquarters near Atlanta. An extensive testing program is planned leading up the 24 Hours of Le Mans on June 15-16, 2002. The Cadillac LMP 02 will also compete in selected American Le Mans Series events in North America.
The Cadillac LMP 02’s high nose directs airflow under the car while respecting the LMP rules that require a flat bottom between the front and rear wheels. This flat surface can, however, generate significant downforce through ground effect – the interaction between the moving vehicle and the fixed track surface.
