Ramon Lopez achieved degrees in mechanics while doing military service at Aeródromo Militar de León in 1952.

In 1958 Lopez met Demetrio del Val, a Spanish motorcyclist who went to the U.S. to race karts.

Lopez entered Portuguese driver Serafín Martins in a kart race at Buen Retiro Park on November 1, 1960.

The following year a kart team was created: Los Diablos Rojos (The Red Devils).

Lopez competed in the 100cc Karting World Championships racing against Ronnie Peterson, Toine Hezemans and many others.

Influenced by the Artes Campeador, built by Selex, the car was unveiled at the 1967 Barcelona Motor Show.

Argentine driver Carlos Alberto Jarque, managed by Juan Manuel Fangio, entered the Formula 1430 championship in 1974.
