Super GT file magazine reports the future of JAF-GT300/MC.
*JAF-GT300MC's GTA engine will be discontinued by 2020.
*Even in JAF-GT300, there is no balanced next-gen engine.
*The aerodynamic performance of GT3 vehicles is evolving and there is a big gap compared to JAF-GT300/MC.
*Takeshi Tsuchiya is looking for an engine for the next-gen MC.
A large-displacement turbo engine is being considered, but it is a bottleneck to have it supplied as non-brand.
*Current JAF-GT300/MC has too less downforce, so it cannot be handled by a gentleman driver.
*The minimum weight should be raised to around 1200 kg and the power should be raised to around 500 hp.
*New engine/monocoque must be highly versatile and contribute to cost reduction.
*Create an environment where you can make things, and train next-gen mechanic, engineers.
