The old Alfa engine was always a bit underpowered to compete with GT2. Essentially, the car is GT3 spec, even though it is not allowed to race in FIA GT3 itself, due to there not being the required number of road cars.
The Maserati V8 in the latest version sounds great though, doesn't it?

So they're homologated with the V8 already?
