About

ADR has its roots in an engineering business founded in the early 1950’s supplying Motorsport and non-motorsport companies with specialised, bespoke components. However it was not until 2001 that we produced the prototype of our first complete racing car, the ADR Sports 1000.

The Sports 1000: Powered by a BMW 1000c motorbike engine, when the car was first shown it created a huge demand, with ADR putting the Sport 1000 into production for the newly created Sports 1000 series started by the 750 motor club.

The ADR Sport 2: Success with these cars led to the design and build of the next car from the ADR marque, the Sport 2. These were the first 2 seater sports prototype cars and had several engine options – the quickest being the 1300cc Suzuki Hayabusa unit.

We had hardly gone into production of the Sport 2 when interest from partners in both the USA and France caused us to raise the bar higher. The burgeoning SCCA C-Sport category in America led us to design an evolution of the Sport 2 which would have FIA and SCCA approval and bring options to drivers around the world to compete in endurance, sprint, bike-engines or automotive power. This car is the ADR3.

The ADR3: The ADR3 came with 2 engine/drivetrain options; the Suzuki Hayabusa 1300cc motorbike engine, available in several states of tune, or the Honda 2 litre K20 automotive engine mated to the Hewland FTR gearbox.

Todays Cars: In 2008 the ADR3 was configured to meet four main markets, these specifications are detailed below. They include the Track Sport (TS), the Motorcycle Engine specification (MCE), the FIA group CN sports racing car (CN) and the high end spec race car (RS).
