● Jump onboard for a few laps of Imola circuit in the Valley Motorsport prepped 1985 Jaguar XJ-S Group A touring car racing in the Peter Auto Heritage Touring Cup 2 during Imola Classic 2026.
From 1982 onwards, the Group A regulations imposed relatively strict limitations on modifications, yet TWR managed to transform the Jaguar XJ-S into a formidable racing machine. Power came from a fuel-injected, naturally aspirated 5.5 liter TWR V12, producing approximately 400 bhp in full competition trim. Much of TWR’s early development work focused on improving safety and structural rigidity. The suspension was also stiffened and lowered to improve handling and cornering stability, while retaining the original geometry. Completing the package was a set of exceptionally wide Dunlop racing slicks, giving the XJ-S the grip needed to put its considerable V12 power to the track!
