The Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R is the third phase of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship race car, following the introduction of the mid-engine C8 platform. It is designed specifically for GT3-based series worldwide and is built for customers to run in various competitions. The car has undergone significant changes, including the addition of ABS, a ballast box, and an air restrictor for the engine in order to meet GTD PRO requirements. Compared to the previous GTE/GTLM car, the new GT3.R feels similar to drive, with only minor differences such as the impact of ABS on cornering. The GT3 car is also designed to be more serviceable and repairable, catering to a wider range of drivers, including gentlemen drivers. The focus was on creating a logical and enjoyable driving experience while considering different tire manufacturers’ requirements.
