:excited:excited Enjoy!
> 15 years since a McLaren F1 GTR famously won the gruelling Le Mans 24 Hours race on its debut, McLaren has begun development work to turn the new MP4-12C into a limited volume of GT3 racing cars. These will be available in time for 2012 GT3 championships.

> With its revolutionary, carbon fibre MonoCell, the 12C is proving to be a natural platform on which to develop a race-winning car.

How do you hate the road car when the GT3 is almost the same car with a big wing on the back and slight changes to the front end and some canards put on? That is kind of the whole idea behind the GT3 class.

Because the road car is not purpose built to compete in GT3 :crazy
