1991 Jaguar XJR-15 w/ 6.0 liter N/A V12 driving at Goodwood FOS

During the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed I have filmed this 1991 Jaguar XJR-15. Inspired by the outright victory in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1988, Jaguar Sport / TWR (Tom Walkinshaw Racing) decided to develop a racing car for the road. It was derived directly from the successful XJR-9 and XJR-12 racers. The new road racer was dubbed the XJR-15 to emphasise how close it was related to Jaguar's Group C competition cars. Interestingly, Jaguar also developed a road going supercar during the same period. Known as the XJ220, this highly sophisticated, V6-engined machine was a pure road car. To further underline the differences between the XJ220 and the XJR-15, Jaguar Sport devised a one-make racing series for the XJR-15 in 1991. Known as the Jaguar Sport International Challenge, it was run as a support for Formula 1 races and open to all owners of the XJR-15. The Jaguar Sport Intercontinental Challenge was cancelled after just one season and the proposed GT series never emerged. As a result, the XJR-15's racing career was limited to just three events. It is uncertain if the production run of 50 cars was actually completed.
