Keating Bolt

The Bolt launching in 2013, and designed to outperform supercar competition using high-tech lightweight materials to reduce the power to weight ratio, but aiming to increase the car’s performance figures to a top speed of 340 mph.

The Bolt’s engine design is based on a Chevrolet V8, but almost all the other components are engineered by Keating Supercars and other UK companies..

The Bolt will cost between £180,000 and £500,000, depending on the features, customers can select from several engine sizes, as well as choosing the dashboard instruments, brakes, mirrors, seats and bodywork.

The supercharger springs into life when the driver accelerates, boosting the engine from 1,580 to 2,000 hp (1,178 to 1,491 kW), but slashing its fuel efficiency from as much as 30 miles per gallon to fewer than one. At full power, The Bolt can burn its way through a full tank of petrol in nine minutes..

Keating developed all alloy V8 LS7 7.0 Litre. within its classic 427-cu-in displacement. It features a unique, big-bore cylinder block that is anchored with a forged crankshaft, lightweight titanium connecting rods and friction-coated pistons. Large-volume, straight-passage intake runners channel air directly through 2.20-inch titanium intake valves.

Keating TKR

In 2008, The TKR was built primarily for competition and track use. It was soon followed by the SKR, based on the TKR, but designed as a road car. In October 2009 the Keating TKR, a twin turbo mid-engine supercar boasting 2,500 hp (1,864 kW) allegedly hit 260.1 mph on a dry lake bed at Salt Lake Flats in California. However, the test run was deemed unofficial as the car broke down before it could complete the return run in the opposite direction on the lake bed The world speed record is currently held by the Koenigsegg Agera and stands at 277.9 mph (447 km/h). In 2010 the TKR was to attempt to break the blind land speed record, until the car crashed on a test run and did not attempt this record.

Keating SKR

The Keating SKR high performance car received great acclaim at the British Motor Show in 2006.

Every Keating SKR car that is sold has a CobraTrak 5 tracking system; this is to ensure that, if stolen, the car can be found, and that the car is compliant in virtually any country that has insurance requirements for high value cars.

Analogue modification: the SKR can be fitted with bespoke analogue dials and gauges which are mounted in the dash binnacle and dash top pod. Digital modification: the SKR can be fitted with more futuristic digital display options, the types of digital modification options can be discussed and decided upon when via enquiry. A Digital Wheel relocates the complete digital instrument array in to the steering wheel with only a single gauge on the dash.

Many race and competition features from the TKR can be fitted to the SKR cars, AP racing brakes can also be fitted to the SKR model if the client wishes so.

The SKR also includes a carbon fibre rear wing which is fully adjustable, Lexan safety material for the competition side windows and a slider on the competition windows for ventilation.

The client can also choose to include manual adjustable race mirrors, racing bucket seats and restraints.
