  1. On the other hand, Super GT's (the Japanese racing series, not the YouTuber) GT300 class can match and, often, post faster times than GTE.

  2. Only the GT1 cars use the V8, the GT3 retains the VR38.

  3. Not entirely wrong given that Corvette had to mod (tone down) it in order to compete in basically GT3 (GTD Pro) in IMSA.

  4. No. Regulations mandate that the GT-R be converted to rear-wheel drive in order to compete. Same with the Honda/Acura NSX (it also has to ditch the hybrid system). The main issue is that the GT-R is already uncompetitive in almost all racing series execpt Japan's Super GT and Super Taikyu.

  5. ​ @albert_gyorgy  - I'll need to correct: the BRZ GT300 is a JAF-GT300-spec car not Mother Chassis. It's easy to tell since the latter always use a GTA-branded Nissan V8.

  6.  @albert_gyorgy  - don't worry, not a lot people understandably has a hard time differentiating a JAF-GT300 car from one made under the Mother Chassis specs. The prior comment should help them short-term.

  7.  @albert_gyorgy  - three specs are available for GT300: the FIA GT3, JAF-GT300 (which the Subaru uses), and Mother Chassis (the ones where they always use the Nissan V8s). The BRZ uses the EJ20, so it's a JAF-GT300 car.

  8. Keep in mind, the IMSA C8.R is currently running in GTD Pro (basically professional GT3). Not entirely wrong, but yeah, a different picture works better.

  9. Probably the cost of maintaining the hybrid components is the barrier, more so for privateers.
