A look into the future.

We are currently developing our GT1 racing program and are hopeful to bring the project to fruition in the near future.

This platform represents years of design, engineering, and passion toward building a purpose-built race car focused on performance, balance, and driver engagement.

We’re also proud to have support from Haltech and Anti-Gravity Batteries as sponsors for the program as development continues forward.

More updates to come as the project evolves.

The rear of the has now entered its final form.

Every line, vent, and surface was designed with purpose — balancing aggression, airflow management, and unmistakable identity. The finalized LED lighting signature gives the a modern, technical presence while paying homage to the raw spirit of analog supercars.

Below, the rear diffuser has been fully engineered to work in harmony with the chassis and underbody aerodynamics, channeling airflow with precision while visually anchoring the car with a race-bred stance. From the center-exit exhaust to the sculpted aero tunnels, every element serves both form and function.

This isn’t styling for the sake of styling.
This is the culmination of years of refinement, fabrication, and relentless evolution.

The continues to blur the line between road car and motorsport machine — a purpose-built platform shaped by performance, engineering, and vision.

The engineering beneath the M400R follows the same philosophy as the exterior design above it — purposeful, integrated, and uncompromising.

Our first production set of exhaust mufflers for the M400R is currently in manufacturing and expected to be completed within the next few weeks. Every component has been fully CAD designed, including the uniquely formed exhaust outlets sculpted directly into the rear body architecture for a seamless and functional integration.

The system was engineered not only for performance and packaging efficiency, but also to establish a distinctive visual identity unique to the M400R platform. From airflow routing to acoustic character, every detail was considered as part of the complete driving experience.

The intake plenum system, not shown here, is also being developed as a full carbon-fiber design and will undergo final review and refinement following installation of the exhaust system.

Future configurations will also include lightweight titanium exhaust options for enhanced response, reduced mass, and an even more aggressive sound signature.

This is where it all lived.

A close-up of the dog box that carried us through GT1 racing with the Noble M12 and M400—Lap after lap, race after race, through Laguna Seca’s front straight at 162 mph.

Eighteen races. Qualifying. Testing.

And when we opened it up…
Only a faint mark on the input shaft.

Everything else—unchanged. Untouched. Ready to go again.

This isn’t just durability.
This is precision, alignment, and understanding the limits before they ever arrive.

It’s the kind of engineering that doesn’t ask for attention—
It earns trust.

And this is how our journey continues today.

Before the molds… before the carbon… there was this.

The early development of the HVR GT1 began not in CAD perfection, but in raw form—foam, filler, and countless hours of hand-sculpting. Every surface you see here was shaped, reworked, and refined by hand, chasing proportions, airflow, and intent long before tooling could even be considered.

This stage is where design becomes reality—where ideas are tested not on a screen, but in physical form. Imperfections revealed direction. Adjustments revealed character. And through that process, the foundation of a purpose-built GT1 machine began to emerge.

Much of what defines the M400r today was born right here—in the dust, the late nights, and the relentless pursuit of getting it right.

Another angle of the HVR GT1—where form, function, and time itself intersect.

Back then, every panel was born through a meticulous wet layup process, vacuum-extracting the resin, chasing consistency and strength over days. It was unforgiving—but it laid the foundation.

Today, we work with pre-preg materials, autoclaves, and precision. Yet this is how our journey continues—with all the knowledge learned from the past, shaping every new curve. The HVR GT1 isn’t just a race car; it’s living proof of that evolution.

Every car has a story. The ORIGIN HVR traces back to our Noble M12 and M400—machines we campaigned and homologated for SCCA GT1. From that legacy, I—Hoover Chan—designed and built this purpose-driven race car. The ORIGIN HVR is where the evolution began, paving the road to the

Long before the M400R concept took shape, we built a fully SCCA-homologated GT1 platform over a decade ago—a pure track machine. The M400R grew out of that same lineage. Now, with our large U.S. network, we’ve been asked to bring this GT1 program to fruition—potentially offering a rental program for those who want to experience the exhilarating world of racing firsthand. Whether it’s head-to-head or toe-to-toe on the track, we’re exploring how this proven platform could ignite a new era of racing for our community. It’s not a new idea—it’s part of the foundation that’s driven us all along.

Exhaust Architecture — Tuned from the Inside Out

This is where packaging meets performance.

We’re developing the exhaust system from first principles—starting at the headers and working rearward, with every bend, merge, and length calculated with intent. Equalized flow, smooth transitions, and controlled pulse behavior are all part of the equation.

The headers are being refined for optimal primary and secondary lengths, balancing scavenging efficiency with real-world packaging constraints. From there, the system routes inward—bringing the muffler into the chassis envelope rather than hanging it as an external afterthought.

Why?

• Improved mass centralization
• Reduced rear overhang weight
• Cleaner aero behind the car
• Better thermal control within a defined structure

The tubing is continuously adjusted—millimeters at a time—to achieve the right harmonics, backpressure, and flow characteristics. This isn’t just about sound. It’s about how the engine breathes, responds, and delivers power across the entire band.

Every constraint becomes an opportunity.
Every compromise is engineered out.

This is exhaust design as part of the chassis—not separate from it.
