Probably the best IXo - Aston Martin DBR9 1/43

If you love Great Britain you probably heard that they have good tea, bad weather and some good cars. Oh yes, good cars. One name stand out, that’s of course Aston Martin. Company Aston Martin Lagonda Limited (their full name) in their long history had one big problem, money. In the first century they went bankrupt seven times. But luckily, they survived.

Ako volite Veliku Britaniju, verovatno ste čuli da oni imaju dobar čaj, loše vreme i neke dobre automobile. Ah da, dobre automobile. Jedno ime se ističe, i to je naravno Aston Martin. Kompanija Aston Martin Lagonda Limited (njihovo kompletno ime), je u svojoj dugoj istoriji imala jedan veliki problem, a to je novac. I prvom veku postojanja, oni su imali sedam

bakropta. Ali srećom, preživeli su.

In 1991 Ford bought Aston Martin and in 2003 they introduced “the collest car on the planet,the DB9”. (“DB” was actually a man’s name, It stands for David Brown, a machine manufacturer and driver who bought Aston in the 1940.). Although it succeeded the DB7, Aston Martin did not call the car the DB8 due to fears that the name would suggest that the car was equipped with only a V8 engine (the DB9 has a V12) They took engine from  Vanquish.

1991 Ford je kupio Aston Martin i 2003 su svetu predstavili, “naj cool auto na svetu, DB9”.(“DB” je zapravo ime čovek koji spasio Aston Martin kupujući ga 1940). Iako je njegov predhodnik nazvan DB7, Aston Martin nije nazvao naslednika DB9 zato što su se bojali da će ime asocirati da auto ima v8 motor (DB9 je imao  V12). Taj motor su uzeli iz Vanquish-a.

Aston Martin DB9 was of course “grand turismo” and when you make a GT car in 2003 you want to  compete with Gallardo, Ferrari F430, Ford Gt, Porshe 911, Corvette CS6. For that you need realy fast car. In 2005 Aston Martin and Prodrive made DBR9. The name DBR9 is derived from the original 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning DBR1 car. The DBR9 retains the chassis, engine block, and cylinder heads of the road car's V12 engine. The rest of the car is re-engineered for high performance competition use.

Aston Martin DB9 je naravno “grand turizmo” (italijanski naziv, koji se raširio po celom svetu, a asocira na sportske limuzine), a kada napravite GT automobil 2003, vi želite  da se takmičite sa Galjardom, Ferarijem F430, Fordom GT, Poršeom 911, i Corvetom CS6. Za to vam treba poprilično brz auto. 2005 Aston Martin i Prodrive prave DBR9. Ime je dobio od prvog Aston Martina koji je osvojio Le Man i nosio naziv DBR1. DBR9 je zadržao šasiju, blok motora, glave cilindra fabričkog V12 motora. Sve ostalo je promenjeno za svrhe takmičenja.

Body was made of carbon fibre, and the DBR9 was 700 kg lighter than DB9. The engine modifications allow the car to develop 625 hp, that power in addition to the lost weight, allows the DBR9 can go from 0 to one 100 km/h (60 mph) in 3.4 seconds. The DBR9 won the Sebring 12 Hours for its LMGT1 category in 2005, but came third in Le Mans 24 Hour behind arch-rivals Corvette Racing due to fuel problems. They won on Le Mans in 2007, 2008,2014 and 2017.

Karoserija je bila napravljena od ugljeničih vlakana, i DBR9 je bio 700 kila lakši od fabričkog DB9. Modifikacije na motoru dozvolile da DBR9 razvije 625 konja, i to mu je omogućilo da u kombinaciji sa manjom težinom stiže do stotke za 3.4 sekunde. DBR9 je 2005 pobedio na 12 sati Sebring-a u svojoj LMGT1 kategorije ali prošao kao treći na legendarnoj Le Man trci iza Korvete zbog problema sa gorivom. Oni su ipak pobedili na Le Manu 2007, 2008m 2014 i 2017.

And now probably the best Ixo./ A sada verovatno najbolji IXO.
