FYI:
https://gt-world-challenge-australia...2022-planning/ 'Released by former Lamborghini GT3 homologation agent Reiter Engineering back in 2014, the Chevrolet Camaro was designed as an entry level into the burgeoning class. For 2015, the model made its Australian debut through M Motorsport as only 10 were made by Reiter during its production life.' |

I believe there was 1 and 1 "road" version built, they had the "race" version lap the track with other Panoz cars at Petit but it never ran. I think the road car was a body on a Esperante roller for demonstration
2 race of the Avezzanos were run and a street as well but it was a derivation of the Esperante line. There was no GTLM version of the "base" it was GT2, it was called Esperante GT-LM just to add to the naming fun but that was pre-GTE/GTLM naming |

Best thing about Ford and Chevy getting in to full GT3 racing is that it could finally get some USA based GT4 teams in IMSA Pilot series and GT WC America to move up to GT3.

I would expect it on the GTD Pro cars only and even then tweaked for IMSA badging regs

I prefer the Ford GT livery. Should have kept that.

One thing I missed in the release of GT4 and GT3 cars is that they are also planning a single make series for IMSA that uses a slightly different version of the car. DSC has some info about Fords customer programs here:

Guessing that's a short weekend paddock filler, can't imagine them getting squeezed in at the enduros or Long Beach. Carrera Cup got kicked out of the Petit, not sure this would be good replacement, but probably fewer cars so less space needed.

Could this be a Mustang team bearing in mind Red Bull's Ford engine deal?

Here is a video of the car testing in Barcelona. Sounds great, of course, and the livery is working for it

It seems Multimatic have their hands full building mustangs at a clip of 2 per month, which is not nearly enough to keep up with initial demand:
https://sportscar365.com/lemans/wec/...f-mustang-gt3/ No news on the upcoming customers, but sounds like more mustangs will be racing by the end of the year. |

I wonder if the Ford series could be a recruiting and trial ground for Ford NASCAR drivers? Ford might be the first to put actual stock in road racing skills for NASCAR programs. |
