That’s great news, hopefully that means there’s a proper GT3 car in the pipeline.

 

[midlifecrisis]

Yes, yes , yes, yes, yes. Hopefully at Le Mans too, give us some more purpose in going!

They’ll need a different car, no GT2 at Le Mans.

There’s a huge aero difference between GT2 and GT3. It’s got to be the end game though GT2 is just for muppets like me with a lot more money playing at being racing drivers.

Wouldn’t that be nice, turn up for the start, watch it fail on lap 5, then all back to ours for a bbq

Well, Maserati race cars over the past twenty years (4200GT derived Trofeos and GT3s, Gran Turismo derived Trofeos and GT4s (and one GT3...), and of course the MC12) have been very (perhaps even exceptionally) reliable race cars...

But the 250F did suffer from rear axle issues, mainly due to the De Dion set up. Otherwise, it was the privateers' favourite car...

Yes, but that is 75(ish) years ago...

Hopefully we will see a GT3 and GT4 version and see it in the British Gt and the equivalent around the world….
