Aston Martin Vulcan to Demo Laps at Spa 24 Hours Event
Aston Martin continues to show off its Vulcan around the world.
After putting on a show recently at the 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Aston Martin Vulcan will make its next stop at the TOTAL 24 Hours of Spa this weekend. The British automaker will demonstrate the 7.0-liter V12 track-only machine as it demonstrates two laps on July 25 with Darren Turner behind the wheel. Turner, who has more than 20 years experience in developing race cars, has been involved with the design and development of the Aston Martin Vulcan from the very start.

The British automaker will also be presented during the actual race with a pair of Aston Martin Racing customer teams competing in the Pro-Am class with V12 Vantage GT3s.
“It’s been amazing to have been involved in this project from the beginning,” said Turner. “From the conceptual sketches through to working with the designers on driver ergonomics, it is a fascinating process to be part of.”
