GT3's
Acura NSX GT3 EVO 22
Building off the successes of the original NSX GT3, which debuted in 2017 and won dozens of races and the IMSA GTD championship, the Acura NSX GT3 EVO 22 made its debut for the 2022 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season. It ended its debut season with a checkered flag at the Petit Le Mans for Gradient Racing, who had already given the EVO 22 its first IMSA podium at Long Beach earlier in the year, and it added numerous other victories and championships in other series around the world that same year.
Audi R8 LMS EVO II GT3
A mainstay of GT3 events around the world for much of the past decade, Audi's R8 LMS received its second upgrade for the 2022 racing season with the introduction of the R8 LMS Evo II. Like its predecessor, the Evo I, the Evo II can either be bought new or as an upgrade kit for a previous generation model. Major improvements to the car included a new aerodynamics package that generated more downforce with the rear wing, a new engine intake system, and four-way adjustable dampers in the suspension.
BMW M4 GT3
Revealed at BMW Sim Live in December 2020, the BMW M4 GT3’s reveal was a bridge between the virtual world and the real one—especially as its steering wheel could be removed from the real car and plugged directly into iRacing. The car received a pre-release on iRacing to give sim racers a taste of what to expect before it began competing in GT3 series around the world, and received updates in-sim to match its final form.
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R
Upon the global sunsetting of the GTE spec at the end of the 2023 racing season, Chevrolet's Corvette C8.R would require a successor to be built under GT3 specifications. Enter the Z06 GT3.R, which would also see the brand pivot from a direct factory-backed Corvette Racing program to numerous customer teams-although the same Pratt Miller Motorsports group that led the factory GTE effort remains a key part of the racing efforts.
Ferrari 296 GT3
Ferrari's latest foray into GT3 racing, the 296 GT3 made its debut in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and other major global championships in time for the 2023 season. It succeeds the 488 GT3 EVO that made its debut in 2020, and it was designed to build on that car's successes with easier setup modifications for the crew and significantly more downforce than its predecessor.
Ford Mustang GT3
The seventh-generation Ford Mustang has been the linchpin of Ford's modern motorsport efforts around the world, from the NASCAR Cup Series to Australia's Supercars series. It was no surprise, then, when the Blue Oval revealed that it would return to the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship for the first time since 2019 with the Mustang GT3, based on the 2024 Mustang Dark Horse model. The Ford Mustang GT3 is powered by a 5.4-liter, naturally aspirated Ford Coyote V8 engine.
McLaren 720S GT3 EVO
Since 2019, the McLaren 720S GT3 has proven itself one of the world's most competitive GT3 platforms. That success only continued in 2023 with the introduction of the 720S GT3 EVO, which improved upon the car's aerodynamics, suspension, overall balance, and other key elements.
Mercedes-AMG GT3 2020
Since its introduction in 2015, the Mercedes-AMG GT3 has been one of sports car racing's most prominent challengers. The car took home five of the top six spots, including the top four, in the Nurburgring 24 Hours on its first try, and found success with Riley Technologies in the premier IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship events at Daytona and Sebring shortly after.
Porsche 911 GT3 R (992)
The latest in a long line of Porsche 911s built for sports car racing, the 992-spec edition of the Porsche 911 GT3 R follows in the footsteps of the 991-based GT3 R that debuted for the 2019 racing season. It also joins the current model of the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car, which debuted in 2021, as a racing Porsche based on the 992 generation. In its inaugural IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season, five teams-Pfaff Motorsports, MDK Motorsports, Wright Motorsports, AO Racing Team, and Kelly-Moss with Riley-have all brought at least one 992 to the grid across the GTD and GTD Pro divisions.
Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (992)
New for the 2021 Porsche Supercup season, the latest generation of Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car builds upon an existing and successful framework to create the next era of top-notch racing in Porsche's premier global one-make racing series. Kicking up the horsepower to 510 in its 4.0-liter flat-six powerplant, 25 more than its predecessor, the latest 911 GT3 Cup features improvements to chassis construction, aerodynamics, suspension, and safety features, and can be run on synthetic fuels for the first time. Do you have what it takes to master the machine and become the next great Porsche champion?
