Slightly changed from last year. 2020 was a pretty good development year as they finally got the ej20 to finish more races in 1 piece.

Did you pay for the subscription to watch this year? I wish The Race hadn't lost broadcast rights...

Those sure don't look like stock brakes

What's going on with that engine that it's competitive with McLaren and Lamborgini? That doesn't seem possible. I guess intake restrictors that limit the latter cars to less power than stock and also weight rules that add weight to larger engined cars? Still I can't imagine what they're doing to a NA 4-cylinder to keep up.

Nothing special with the engine. It is an old fashioned WRC spec EJ20 engine, but improved each year little by little. If I recall correctly GT300 cars are restricted to around 350hp .

In that video it showed the start order and there was a Lamborghini in there. During the start I thought I saw a McLaren. How weird that racers are choosing these cars for a class with a 350hp limit. It's hard to imagine the engine tuning used to bring their power that far down.

Could be different classes.

Yes. The GT300 and GT500 cars are running together.
