Osella moved to Atella in the south of Italy where he built a new ultra-modern facility to produce some very competitive sports cars. Many of them were sold to privateers, while others were entered in several classes by the Osella works team. The works team was particularly successful in hillclimb races. In 1995 for instance works team driver Pasquale Irlando won all 9 races of the European hillclimb championship using the Osella PA18. He won the title in 1997, 1998 and 1999 consecutively. His successor Fabio Danti died in one of Osella's cars when he was competing in the 2000 Championship. Hillclimb stars like Franz Tschager and Martin Krisam continue to use Osella cars.
RPE RP-V8 is the name of a V8 engine series developed by RPE. The design is loosely based on the 1.3 litres (79.3 cu in) inline-four engine produced by Suzuki for their Hayabusa motorcycle. The company have designed their own cylinder block and use existing Suzuki cylinder heads. The two cylinder banks are inclined at a 72-degree angle. The engine is mated to a purpose-built transaxle designed by Quaife.
There are currently two versions of the engine available, which have been updated for 2011. First is the base 2.7 litres (164.8 cu in) model which retains the original bore and stroke of the K8 Hayabusa design and produces 430 horsepower (321 kW; 436 PS). Second is the bored and stroked 3.2 litres (195.3 cu in) model which produces up to 500 horsepower (373 kW; 507 PS).
