GT Class

[tommeke_B]

While you can never have enough Porsches, are there any other GT cars suitable for this class? I won't even suggest the Bentley, as that is like a tank....

There was the Aston Martin in Finland. Also more years ago Prodrive tried to make some Aston Martin GT car, without success... Lotus managed to make a car according to the regulations, and I think it wouldn't be a bad car. In Belgium we've had a 350Z and 370Z and also Porsche Cayman, they should qualify to make a FIA-homologated GT car as well. The Nissan 370Z was as spectacular as the GT3 (video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mfpmmeiIMo ). The problem with almost any possible GT-car apart from Porsche (and Lotus) is that there's not enough weight pushing on the rear wheels, causing lack of traction (very visible in the video of the 370Z), making it too unefficient to rally...

There was some project idea with Ford Mustang from some Italian tuner I think, but know how it goes, probably it'd be something like the Bentley?!?

There was some project for a Mustang from Floral Racing, well-known Belgian team that's running Fiesta R2 and R5 cars. Everything is quiet around the project now, I think someone must be really interested before they will make big investments on it.

Alfa Romeo 4C? This new Alpine, when it comes out?

Has the R-GT calendar been confirmed next year? Same rounds? Would love to see them add Circuit of Ireland. But probably no one wants to stretch it to 6 rounds.

At least in the regulations for the 2016 Monte Carlo Rally it says, that the rally counts for the FIA RGT Cup for Drivers and FIA RGT Cup for Co-drivers.

Does R-GT regulation allows paddle shift..?

[Rally Power]

Yep! And even homologate a different gearbox, if necessary.

I'm still hypersalivating for this beauty...the 3.8 flat six central mounted in a light compact chassis...what else?

Please Santa, don't let FIA ruin it and put ASAP a team of Weissach engineers, under the supervision of Mr. Rohrl, working on a full spec (tarmac and gravel) RGT version!!!

[Rally Power]

Still with Cayman fever! Maybe because it doesn't look bulky or fragile like others rally GT's, it really seems suitable for rallying and it'll be a pity if Porsche clients don't get to use it at special stages (even the fever doesn't make believe that Porsche could enter FIA RGT Cup on their own! But they should!).
