high performance lightweight batteries
The “Reisbrennen” is Europe’s No. 1 import meeting for Japanese vehicles, tuning & racing enthusiasts and fans of the import scene.
After the debut as official sponsor in 2015, we will be represented locally this year by our partner TurboZentrum, exhibiting the entire LITE↯BLOX product range on-site and will gladly answer any questions about our smart, light car battery at any time:
“plan was to have a good running car, but not in the M3 look as most people do”
The <1200kg BMW 325i stroker – powered by LITE↯BLOX LBtrack battery
If Jan does not work on his tracktool, he earns his bun as a developer in the automotive industry and also works as a personal driving coach for racetrack and driving safety.
The E36 was bought as 325i in the standard spec without M-package out of 3rd hand and checkbook maintained.
The plan was to have a cheap club sport conversion to have fun on the racetrack. But also motivated by his job as an instructor it was already obvious in the first conversion phase, that it will go a bit more into detail…
Today, Jan drives one of the fastest E36 325i on the Nordschleife and apart from a handful of components nothing seems to be stock anymore:
To save weight, everything was removed and a fiberglass dashboard was used plus reasonable seats, straps and a roll cage for saftey issues.
On the engine Jan has given the engine builder Oliver Sturm Concept complete confidence to built a 2.5L stroker, delivering an appropriate power output.
Of course, the chassis component also had to be adapted to the overall concept. This is where Carl Schwarz from Custom Racetec put his hands. Thus, everything is now stored in Uniball, the body has been adapted in the rear of the fenders to the 235/45 DIREZZA tires on 9×17 MOTEC wheels. In addition, a KW Clubsport suspension has been adapted with minor changes in spring rates.
To fuel the overall concept of the “E36 325i Sleeper” saving more kilos, Jan relies on our brand new LITE↯BLOX LBtrack (2.3kg) battery model with matching adapter plate, saving around 9 additional kilos onto the previously used lightweight lead-acid battery, while providing even more cranking power:

Due to the high demand, we now offer an alternative to the proven LITE↯BLOX product range for a small budget:
The lightweight LITE↯BLOX LBtrack accumulator (2,3kg) comes in a plain housing with integrated BMS electronics in proven quality, aiming at customers in semi-professional racing series on a tight budget (Tracktool, Drift, Dragrace, TimeAttack, Slalom, Hillclimb, Rallye, Tuning –> you name it!)
Our optional available adapter bracket allows a plug’n’play replacement against the standard OE starter battery, saving up to 20 kilos total.
The LBtrack racing battery will be delivered from May 2019 including DMSB homologation and can be pre-ordered from now on in our online shop or at your performance partner of trust.
Only for selected customers & partner this weekend in the context of VLN finals:

From time to time customers are asking, if our products can be used during the whole season…?
Our partner Laptime-Performance just did some evaluation on this on a BMW M3 E92 V8 Tracktool, using one of our LB19XX models:
