Yes, well found.
I think to have noticed, that one of the newspaper articles shows a name for the first Turkish race car. LOCKED for you to find that

Hmm. I'd assumed the car was called "Beklen" since the article states that Beklen "made his surname a brand for his car" and then, at the very bottom, says: 06 EC 480 plate "Beklin"

Let me look for the rest of the article...

"Beklenen" (note the 'B' on the side of the car), which incorporates the creator's surname but also means "Expected." The first article also uses the word "Sahane" ("Wonderful") capitalized and in quotes, but I don't know if this is supposed to be a model name or simple a descriptive term.

I am not common with Turkish language, but by using a translating app, I think "Sahane" is the car's name
