Saleen will celebrate its 1987 Driver, Manufacturer, Team, and Tire SCCA ESCORT Endurance Championships with a new Championship Commemorative Edition. It will feature the signature Saleen white wheels with custom yellow, black, and white graphics.
We are extremely proud to introduce the first summer tire for General with such a legendary brand as Saleen. — Travis Roffler, General Tire
“We are extremely proud to introduce the first summer tire for General with such a legendary brand as Saleen,” Travis Roffler, director of marketing for General Tire, said. “The new ultra-high performance G-MAX RS is a tire that we have been anticipating for a several years. Our dealers have asked for it and we know the market is ready for it. This new Saleen Mustang is a perfect match for the G-MAX RS.”
In addition to the new General Tire rubber on those signature white wheels, the Saleen Championship Commemorative Editions are boosted to 730 horsepower courtesy of a liquid-cooled Saleen/Kenne Bell twin-screw supercharger. These cars feature unique exhaust systems, short-throw shifters, high-performance radiators, four-point roll bars, rear-seat deletes, harness belts, and more.
The reveal of the actual car will take place in the near future and production is scheduled to begin in September. For more information on these special Saleen Black Label machines, visit the company’s official site here.
