wow! love it!

So beautiful... should have sent a poet :drool:

I love how its stock looking..just wide body and wing to plant that 400hp on a light weight car... its clean thats how its suppose to be done.. :)

I'm sure it's very functional, but MAN does it look fat LOL

Factory option? (;

Wonder how they got that 400

Details on the 400hp is what I want to know.

All motor! All motor! All motor! Can you guess what I want to see?

Are those center locking wheels?

Probably a different engine

Can't be a different engine for gt4 class, it's got to be a production model car.

Ha, good point...plus I missed the first sentence of the original post LOL. Woops.

I don't see a front mount on it.

YEs, they are

Bad-ass! Can't wait to see these tearing it up on the track!

They talk about a turbo 4 on the blog

Can't someone pose as a potential buyer and get the answer

:thumbsup:

Blurb about the British GT Championship;


GT4
The GT4 category amalgamates GT4-homologated cars. The former category provides the exciting cars which form the mainstay of the GT4 European Cup - like the Lotus Evora GT4, Nissan 370Z, BMW M3, Aston Martin N24, Ginetta G50.

ahahahahahah

yeah seeing that its turbo charged.......oh well for serious NA power.

Everything I wish I could do to my car! Perfect

Ironically I posted this story back in October and nobody seemed too interested:

Final car looks good though.......

Dam he took that corner faster then tht ferrari

GT 4 Racecar
 

repost on topic - although the MT article is not in the OP

i saw that too, in the second video he says that the car can keep up with cars in the corners that have over 400hp.

All im noticing is that the chassis and suspension with some basic race modifications really makes the 86 look flat through every corner without the slightest bit of shuffle from the back.

To me thats amazing, because i usually dont see production cars be flat and fast like that in the corners unless they had body modifications or heavy suspension modifications. Sometimes those cars look a bit loose in the back also.

Then what's the problem?? -_-

So...

...did this car ever compete? I don't see it listed with the British GT4 series

Not sure, but apparently a second GPRM 86 has been built:

Either way, seeing this pic (for the first time, mind you) gave me a pant explosion

AVON tires on the left is crooked, but its a nice car.
