The Jiotto Caspita is a prototype mid-engine sports car designed and manufactured by Dome in 1989. The car was billed as the “F1 on the Road.” The original design of the car was done by Kunihisa Ito, who was the vice-president and chief designer of Jiotto Design Incorporated.
The car was the brainchild of the president of Wacoal Corp Yoshikata Tsukamoto and the president of DOME Minoru Hayashi. A joint venture between the two companies was formed in July 1988 by the name of Jiotto Inc (60% held by Wacoal and 40% held by DOME) to design and build the car. The mechanical work was entrusted to Dome while a newly incorporated studio was assigned to design the car.
The design emphasis was Group C race cars and keeping that in mind, the car had a sleek and aerodynamic body design. Design mockups of 1/5 scale were made for wind tunnel testing. Later, full size models were made and tested at DOME’s own wind tunnel as well as JARI’s (Japan Automobile Research Institute) wind tunnel for aerodynamic refinement. Jiotto Design selected three designs out of initially proposed 200 for final development. Out of the three, a proposal having an integrated rear wing and large side air intakes was fully developed.
