Recommended Tools and Equipment
The Ginetta G55 GT4 is designed to be straightforward to work on. This section is designed to highlight the various
instruments you may need when working on certain areas of the car.
Wheels and Tyres
For a race weekend it is ideal to have 4 ½ sets of wheels, as detailed
below:
 Two sets of wets - one to use and a full spare set.
 One set of slicks - mounted for testing, plus one front and
one rear spare.
 One set of slicks - mounted for racing. Using the spare front
and rear rims from testing to have race spares on.
In total this amounts to nine front 9” wheels and nine rear 10”
wheels. Keep in mind the tyres are directional and have different rim
widths for the front and rear.
The barcode on each tyre shown in figure 1.1 is used to identify your tyre nomination at a race weekend. This allows
the event scrutineers to keep track of how many tyres you have used throughout both the race meeting and the
championship year.
Charged Gas Bottle
The car is raised and lowered using pneumatic air jacks. The
compressed air used to actuate the jacks is stored in a steel cylinder
gas bottle.
The gas bottle can be connected on the right hand side of the car,
shown in figure 1.2.
The gas bottles can be supplied by CES Europe Ltd.

Air Lance With Correct Hose
Each car comes with an air lance, used to connect the gas bottle to
the car, as shown in Figure 1.3.
