Corporate Race Programs
Katech was founded on the need to provide responsive service and skills to factory race efforts in all forms of racing. Many of our services and capabilities have risen out of requirements of these racing programs. These tools are utilized to the full extent to create competitive advantages for every program we are in involved in.

Our current corporate race programs include the Corvette C6.R competing in ALMS GT1 and the Cadillac CTSV.R competing in SCCA SPEED World Challenge GT.

Cadillac CTS-V.R Race Program

Cadillac turned to Pratt & Miller and Katech to develop the car and engine for 2003 in preparation for the 2004 racing season. In the SPEED World Challenge GT Series, the CTS-V came home with a 1-2 finish in its debut race at Sebring International Raceway. Katech is proud to be a part of this effort as it continues to 2005.

In its first season, Team Cadillac notched five podium finishes, including four pole positions and three victories in the SCCA SPEED World Challenge GT Championship series.

The CTS-V Race Car is based on its production counterpart, Cadillac's highly acclaimed CTS-V luxury performance sedan.

 
Corvette C6.R Race Program

Corvette officially returned to racing competition in 1999 with its debut at the 24 Hours of Daytona. Since then it has completed in 50+ races and has won 35 of those events to become a modern day racing icon. The Gen III engine powered racers accomplished the almost unheard of feet of finishing 1-2 in both the 24 hours of Daytona and the 24 hours of Lemans in the 2001 season. For the 2002 season the C5-R’s showed that they were once again on a mission with back-to-back 1-2 finishes at the grueling 24 hours of LeMans. In Corvette’s last year as a C5-R, the bright yellow cars did the unprecedented, and won every race that they competed in, including a third 1-2 finish at LeMans.

At Katech we have been involved in the Corvette program since the inception in the fall of 1997. Our commitment to serving the corporate customer is reinforced as Katech continues to supply and develop engines for the 2006 season with the debut of the new C6-R racecar prepared to compete in the American LeMans Series and it’s French counterpart, the 24hrs of LeMans.

At Katech we have the facility and staff to support all facets of a corporate program with virtually every tool required to accomplish any task.
