On the other hand, one of your favourite Le Mans cars is the Toyota GT-One, which is also precisely that, a thinly disguised Group C car with a numberplate stuck to it. Luggage space? Nah, you can stick your suitcase in the fuel tank! https://www.thedrive.com/accelerator...UJF7QHETWRoqnQ
And what about this dry-weather qualifying windscreen wiper? Doesn't seem very roadlegal to me!

I accept my view is probably not entirely justifiable Vince, however it is coloured by the fact that probably 75% of the people at Le Mans that year really wanted the Toyota to win in the memory of Roland Ratzenberger. Apart from that, the GT One was a simply dreamy car designed to exploit the GT rules rather than an out and out Group C racer just tweaked to fit. I rest my case.
