-Cars must be made by the poster, no copies from other users, however, if there is help from any other player, please specify in the description

    @Stealth117 like i said, GT is based on mass production vehicles, the GT40 was a purpose built race car, cope all you want, its true, its not a true GT Racer

    @V no, thats more of a prototype than a GT Car. If you need an idea on what to make, here's a couple classes i recommend looking into:
    DTM (pre 2021 and post 2021)
    IMSA GTLM and GTD
    WEC GTLM
    World Sportscars Championship GT3, GT2 and GT1
    Japanese Super GT
    Brazilian Stock Cars

    Just a couple more tweaks and I'm probably going to post my car tomorrow. I'm following the rules of course, but I'm taking a less traditional approach.

    Okay, now that I really feel ready to go in, I think I'm going to make a car with an emphasis on performance, but not forgetting about the details!

    After all, I'm finishing the entrance to the 100 part rally Challenge....
