Bespoke racing cars built from scratch in Estonia.
Three circuit lap records. Pikes Peak next.
The Machines
Two Cars. One Direction.
Kalana
Carbon fibre development mule. Judd DB 3.4L V8. 910 kg. 1,470 kg downforce. Three circuit lap records. Pininfarina wind tunnel validated. The data source for everything that follows.

Tahkuna
Bespoke Pikes Peak Unlimited class prototype. 5.0L twin-turbo V6. 1,200 bhp at altitude. 900 kg. 2,860 kg downforce. Designed from Kalana correlation data to challenge the overall record at 4,302 metres.

Engineering Capability
Everything is designed and developed by the team. Carbon fibre monocoque, aerodynamic package, suspension geometry, powertrain integration. Specialist manufacturing — monocoque construction, powertrain build — is done by selected partners under direct programme oversight. Full-scale wind tunnel validation at Pininfarina in Torino. CFD-to-physical correlation within margins useful for altitude modelling.
The programme uses driver-in-the-loop simulation as a development tool. Telemetry from track testing feeds back into CFD and simulation models. Nothing is assumed that has not been measured.
Composites
Carbon fibre monocoque designed in-house and manufactured to specification. Every structural component exists to minimise mass without compromising data acquisition.
Track validation
Three lap records across individual events in 2023 and 2024. Theoretical models tested against physical telemetry. Correlation-first development.
Simulation
Driver-in-the-loop model used during development. Physics by IER Simulations. Track models built for the circuits where the car competes.

Partnerships
Sponsor the Programme
The Pikes Peak programme is open to title, principal, technical, and supplier partnerships. A small team means sponsors are close to the work. Branding, content, and access are not diluted across dozens of partners.
The programme generates technical content continuously: wind tunnel data, track testing, workshop builds, development updates. For sponsors in adjacent technical categories, the association is specific and credible.
Media
Press & Proof
The claims on this site are verifiable. The car exists. The records are public. Independent coverage from national media, Pininfarina, and specialist automotive press. Company boilerplate, press images, and a downloadable media kit are available for editorial use.
Ownership
Serious Enquiries
Tahkuna pre-sale reservations are open for a limited number of customer allocations. Registering interest is not a purchase commitment. It places you on a list of serious parties who will be contacted as the programme reaches its next milestone.
Kalana is an active development vehicle and not offered for sale. For technical collaboration, sponsorship, or programme-level discussions, use the enquiry form.

Rudskogen Did Not Go As Planned
Our first record attempt at Gatebil. The simulation said one thing. The marbles said another.
