Those GT3's are badazzzzzz. The Grills on the last generation GT3's were perfect split between F80 and G80. Shoulda went with that BMW. Had to get my grill comment in there.

Super cool tech and seems some of the engineering is simpler than in the previous equivalent GT car, the M6. Some of it is due to the change in engine (this one necessitates a single side exhaust, the old one a dual exhaust).

I’m guessing the air to air was chosen for lower weight and complexity.

Interesting to see brakes are by AP and not Alcon.


Thank you contributors for bringing this, very interesting and I hope they do well.

Thanks for the feedback on the video! I understand the air to air is just more favorable over the 24 hour period than stock setup.
