Panoz Motor Sports' Lista-equipped racing team shop
takes the checkered flag

Braselton, GA / Race car team

 
 
Problem
One of the most influential and successful teams on the international racing circuit today, Panoz Motor Sports has always recruited the top drivers, employed the latest technologies, and utilized the best equipment. When Team Panoz set out to build a modern team facility, it approached the project with the same drive and attention to detail it does when preparing for a race.
Objective
Panoz was looking for a winning solution, featuring durability, uniform good looks and a comprehensive offering of products to equip a wide number of departments and functions.
Solution
The high-performance heart of Panoz's 12,000 square foot design, maintenance and testing facility is a Lista storage and workspace system. The Lista system includes modular drawer storage cabinets, Storage Wall® systems, modular workbenches and more, all specified to meet the unique needs of each department.

For example, cabinets are used as room partitions to divide the workshop area into three specialized bays. Equipped with rugged butcher block counter tops, they create a space-saving storage system and functional, U-shaped work area. All aircraft-quality hardware used to assemble and disassemble the racecars is safely stored in the cabinet drawers in organized, customized compartments.

In Panoz's electronics departments, Lista cabinets with double-hinged doors protect mechanical fasteners and component parts from dust and debris.

In the parts department, where floor space is at a premium, Lista's shallow-depth Storage Wall system provides unobtrusive, high density storage. By taking advantage of the Storage Wall's combination of modular drawers, shelves and roll-out trays, Panoz can store an array of large and small items together harmoniously, including all suspension parts, uprights, bearings and drive shafts. Lista also designed a row of cabinets with a continuous butcher block counter top to function here as a service counter.  In the pit area, six mobile drawer storage cabinets house all the small parts needed for vehicle repairs and maintenance during a race. 
Benefits
"On and off the road," says Panoz team manager, John Eversley, "the Lista workspace system has met all of our expectations. The system is flexible, durable, aesthetically pleasing and of superior quality."
