Tyrell F1
Tyrell 009 F1 car
Gartrac were contracted to the Tyrell Racing team to make front and rear aerofoil wings for the 009 Formula 1 car.
The wings were made to aircraft spec quality which involved fabricating the end plates with riveted fixings, rolling the outer skin, forming polystyrene to the same shape as the wing which was then inserted inside the wing to give added strength. The wings were then drilled, riveted, glued and assembled in a jig to Tyrell specification and drawings.
Gartrac were also contractors to Honda in the 2000's , producing bespoke pit equipment for their formula one team.
