IMHO, this cars should be able to run in Le Mans they are to awesome to be left behind :-)

Le Mans could allow them 4 places, 2 GT500 and 2 GT 300… thats a dream but who knows... someday

That Lotus has rather aggressive aero; maybe JAF want to scare SRO into favourable BoP or have the GT3 cars jump out of their way

They limit their power. Im sure theyre nowhere near the 500-600hp of those gt3's.

.... I guess my sense of humour is a little too subtle for some.

(I already know that JAF GT300 are well below typical GT3 power outputs. It was a joke at how aggressive the rear aero on that Lotus was)

There's one more thing why I'm not so excited: commentary without Tsuneyuki Shimoda.

To be honest commentary's boring without him.

I know, but I hoped they will cooperate with Team Studie to construct bodykit only.

No, it won't work. Even if you beg and cry like a BMW fanatic, there's no way a Varis bodykit would be suited for a serious racing series like Super GT!

Leave that bodykit to the general public! I mean, it's better than selling an expensive widebody kit from Team Studie's Z4 GT300 car. No sane person would buy that!

You're right the widebody Z4 @ TAS15 is a street car. But to say Varis is unable to develop aero @ SGT level is further from the truth. VRS develop the aero for Goodsmiles 2011 Championship winning Z4.

Finally the production version of the NSX! Guys i have question, sense the NSX is not legal in GTE or GT3 what are the chances we see this NSX in the GT300? SGT is the only major racing series that allows hybrids. It would be a same not to see this car on the track. I can already imagine this car with a Mugen or Autobacs livery!

That could actually make sense from a marketing point of view, seeing as the GT300 CRZs are already mid-engined twin turbo V6 hybrids, kinda like the NSX road car is

NSX is already in gt500. If they were going to do gt300 with it, they'd probably go the gt3 route like the RC F. But since its not happening in gt3 (thanks to hybrid) its not going to happen in gt300.

It wouldn't really make sense in JAF-GT300 long as long as the CR-Z is actively there, model overlapping.
