Green MotorSport Hill Climb Project : 2009
Leading to Formula Green
The Hill Climb “Wisper” has become part of Green MotorSport’s green fleet of racing cars, both for display and R&D purposes. The Wisper Hillclimb prototype car is real proof that the technology has the required power and can work reliably and efficiently.

Proposed Green MotorSport Hillclimb Car
The proposed newly designed Hillclimb racing car will incorporate the latest efficient technologies. The new motors intended to be used in the project are AC technology. When the new prototype has been fully evaluated, it will be entered into the British Hillclimb Championship. The Hillclimb races will enable Green MotorSport to test and refine new materials, alternative fuels and technologies for our future ‘Formula Green’ championships, which will be the green alternative to the prestigious Formula One.
