The Gen 3 kit is rumoured to cost $600,000 AUD before labour, wildly missing the cost target.
Thinking manufacturer representation from the likes of BMW, Nissan, Lexus and Mercedes as you find in GT3 is unimportant is what is truly missing the point!

Lol. Yeah all these teams like Matt Stone Racing, PremiAir Racing and Team 18 with their big fabrication shops... (Not!)
I'm all for a return to free chassis design, but the idea teams are allowed to design their own chassis, suspension, pedal boxes, uprights, throttle bodies, dry sumps etc under Gen 3 is demonstrably wrong. You have two control engine suppliers and nearly all control parts for the entire car...
Pray tell, what parts
ARE the CNC machines at Brad Jones Racing or Grove Racing actually allowed to make under Gen 3? Certainly not the front uprights anymore, nor the dry sumps, nor the throttle bodies, nor...
