The Norma M14 is a Le Mans Prototype (LMP) racing car designed, developed and built by French constructor Norma for competition in sports car racing. One chassis was built.[3][4][5][6]

Racing history

In 1995, the Norma factory team returned to compete at Le Mans with a new open cockpit design for their World Sports Car class prototype. The car entered in prequalifying for the race and made the entry list. However, they would not qualify for the race, sustaining engine issues.[7]

The chassis would reappear in 1999 in the United States Road Racing Championship at the hands of SBF racing. The team entered the 24 Hours of Daytona with drivers Patrice Roussel, Edouard Sezionale and Sylvain Boulay. They would retire from the race with exhaust issues and it would be the final race of the car's troubled and brief career.[8]
