The Running Snail Racing Team was established in August 2004. Since then, we participated with sustained success at the FS events in England, Germany, Hungary and Italy. The RS11-LC4 is our 7th car, based on the results of the tests and competitions of our first six cars. Our aim is again to reduce the weight to 165 kg, to keep our high quality standards, give the car a good driveability, and reach better ergonomics for the drivers. One of the greatest awards we have received so far at the FS events, was the “Most Innovative Powertrain” Award 2010
