We're Exhibiting at Race Retro - 20-22nd Feb 2026

Date Added: 23/01/2026

The historic motorsport season is officially ready to kick off, and Aero Tec Laboratories (ATL) is thrilled to announce our return to Race Retro 2026. As the industry’s leading authority on fuel system safety, we are heading to Stoneleigh Park to showcase how we bridge the gap between golden-era aesthetics and modern FIA-standard performance.

On Display: The CEO’s Lotus Elan 26R
The centrepiece of our stand this year is a personal one. We will be displaying the Lotus Elan 26R belonging to ATL’s CEO, Giles Dawson.

This iconic racer isn’t just for show; it serves as a rolling masterclass in bespoke engineering. The Elan features a custom ATL fuel cell setup, meticulously designed to fit the 26R’s unique geometry while meeting rigorous FIA approval. It is a perfect example of how we protect the heritage of historic vehicles without compromising on the safety requirements of modern competition.

Engineering the Past for the Future
Whether you are a club racer or a professional restorer, the ATL team will be on-site at Stand 2-334 to discuss our specialist services for the historic market:
 

  • Built to Fit Original Containers or Rigid Tanks: Retain that authentic classic look while benefiting from 21st-century safety and performance.
     
  • Reverse Engineering Capabilities: We can precisely duplicate any competitor fuel bladder, producing a FIA-approved replica that utilises your original hardware and fill.
     
  • Custom Turn-Key Solutions: Any size, any shape. Work directly with our in-house engineering team to leverage 55+ years of fuel system expertise for a bespoke build.
     
  • Off-The-Shelf Offerings: We also carry a range of “Catalogue” wedge and pod-shaped bladders designed for popular open-wheel chassis, such as Van Diemen.
