Awesome! Hope to see some of these converted to GT2 spec for the ALMS.

 

I think it's too much of a stretch to run a GT3 car as an ALMS GT-2 car. Isn't that what Drayson-Barwell tried to do before the purpose built car was ready?

That said, that's a nice piece!

 

Yes, I also believe that the Primetime Viper is also a GT3 converted to GT2 spec.
