In what has been a massive season for Daniele Ielasi’s Ielasi Tuned engine brand with it winning both its first World and European Championship titles, the Italian company has marked Toni Gruber’s 1:8 GT World Championship win in Australia with the release of the ‘World Champion Edition’ of the GP5GTR23 engine.  This version differs from the previous model with 2 small changes on the timing through work on the crankshaft and cylinder.  In Sydney, and like everywhere, it was important to go fast in performance but runtime was also vital and with this configuration they were always able to manage the 7-minute runtime comfortably in each qualifying heat without ever losing performance in our engine.  As a finishing touch the engine head graphic have also been redesigned to mark the occasion and the new special edition engine.
