Information about Ginetta

Ginetta, a distinguished name in British motorsports, boasts a storied heritage that traces back to its founding in 1958 by the Walklett brothers in Woodbridge, Suffolk. Originally crafted in a small garage, Ginetta was born from a passion for racing and engineering excellence. The brand’s initial creation, the Ginetta G1, never went into full production, but it set the foundation for a legacy of race-oriented vehicles.

Over the decades, Ginetta has become synonymous with producing competitive race cars and fostering driving talent, contributing significantly to the British racing scene. The company’s commitment to motorsports is evident in their continuous innovation and involvement in various racing series, from entry-level Ginetta Juniors to the prestigious Le Mans series with their prototypes.

Today, Ginetta continues to thrive under the ownership of businessman Lawrence Tomlinson, who acquired the company in 2005. Under his guidance, Ginetta has not only expanded its racing portfolio but also reinforced its reputation as a builder of cutting-edge race cars and a stepping stone for aspiring drivers. The brand’s ongoing success in international racing underscores its enduring legacy and commitment to the sport.
