Mountune Racing


Mountune Racing is a specialist automotive engineering company. It was formed in 1980 in Maldon, Essex by Dave Mountain to provide Mini race engines.

In the late 1980s, Mountune started preparing Cosworth YB engines for motorsport, producing numerous championships, and forging a long-term association with Ford Motor Company.

To date, Mountune has supplied engines for road and rally racing, supporting championship teams from Ford, Formula Palmer Audi, Ascari and Petronas/Proton. In 2009, they were contracted to build the new Audi race engines for the new FIA Formula Two Championship. The company currently provides Ford engines for the British Touring Car Championship.

Drivers who have used Mountune engines include, Stig Blomqvist, Colin McRae, Mohammed bin Sulayem, François Delecour, Carlos Sainz, Malcolm Wilson, Pentti Airikkala, Robbie Head, Miki Biasion, Gwyndaf Evans, Juha Kankkunen, Tommi Mäkinen, Guy Smith and Tom Chilton.

The company was acquired by Roush Industries in 2004, joining expertise and premises with Roush Europe in Brentwood, England. In 2008, after a Roush Europe management buyout, the parent company became Revolve Technologies Ltd.
