Racing Moscow Unlim 500+ annually collect the owners of super sports cars, representing different regions of Russia and even Europe. Are allowed to participate only cars 500 hp and higher. Welcome to the club 500+!

Moscow Unlim 500+ races are traditionally held in the only appropriate place - on a rolling straight Dmitrov avtopoligona. The length of the horizontal straight road is 4 km, width - about 12 meters. Especially the pre-race coverage updated to make the race as safe as possible.



Entry fee at these competitions - 25,000 rubles from the machine, and that's not counting the cost of sports fuel. Although Does the size of the entry fee, or, for example, the price of $ 10 per liter of petrol sports VP C16, when the cost of the donor car, without modifications of several hundred thousand euros? After all, to participate in such races have the usual little sports car or supercar - for real competition requires a deep revision! As a result of the deep tuning the power of machines participating increased several times - to 1500 hp and more. Heavy Duty transfer any hundred race cars for a couple of seconds, and accelerated to speeds in excess of 400 kilometers per hour.



Competitions are held at a distance of one mile, ie 1600 meters. Standard 400 meters just enough to these machines showed their full potential.



The most popular and affordable car in this class sports cars - Nissan Skyline GT-R. On this machine, there are many tuning kits - modified blocks, powerful turbines, sports suspension, intake-output and more, allowing you to turn the "sports car" in the "supercar". Some of these vehicles are being finalized in the United States - Popular supplier company AMS Performance and Hennessey, as well as other companies. The rest of the machines in local refined tuning studio with whales from the world's leading manufacturers of sports accessories. It should be noted that the Russian supercar fans are among the most advanced in the world, and if you go on the website of the US and European tuning firms in the portfolio can be found a lot of cars from the parking lot Unlim 500+.
