Share your fictional GT6 race cars here!
Apparently, the new feature of number plates, and rumours of custom window banners emerging, has motivated many GT6 players to create more tuned cars.
So I created a thread dedicated to sharing photos and stats of your fictional in-game race cars.

Here's some guidelines:
Suggested post format
  • What you call your car. Here's a typical naming format:
    • Make (because it just seems obligatory).
    • Model (the specific car that your racer is based on)
    • Naming suffix (GT, LM, RC, TC, anything within that area. Tacked on after Make and Model).
    • My example: Nissan Fairlady GT-ZR.
  • A picture. It really helps people to visualise the car because, well, they can actually see it in a photo. More guidelines on photos below.
  • Add some specs (BHP, Weight, PP, etc. Go into as much detail as you like.)
  • If you want, you can provide a fictional backstory about the car's racing history.
Photo suggestions
  • Try to make the photo look as realistic as possible. Make use of the effects in photo travel and race photos.
  • You can add other marks (manufacturer logos, race series logos, copyright notices, etc.) to make it look like a press release, or a spectator leaflet.
Car suggestions
  • Place as many aero parts on the car as possible. This will give it a more aggressive look, shared with real race cars.
  • Try to make use of the new racing numbers.
  • If you are unimpressed with the current look of your vehicle, repaint it!
So, with that out of the way, meet my own original racing machine:
The Lamborghini Diablo Grand-Am!

Lamborghini has had a long history in motorsports, however most of their activity has been limited to Europe. Enter the Diablo Grand-Am. Designed to race in GARRA's premier championship, the Rolex Sportscar Series, this car borrows many components from the Diablo GT2, but adds a new aero package and adds extra weight to balance the handling on the bankings of Daytona International Speedway, GARRA's main circuit.
Development of the car was overseen by the newly formed Auto Tech Shop ATS-R in Tokyo. Many test sessions were held, and Lamborghini soon started taking orders from customer teams. Lamborghini hired four drivers for their works team in the upcoming season: Nobita Nobi, Tony Stewart, Suneo Honekawa and Dekisugi Hidetoshi.
In the car's first competitive outing at the 1999 Rolex 24, the car managed to snatch the second spot on the GT grid, behind a C5 Corvette. The Diablo soon started to develop issues with snap oversteer, and a new rear diffuser was developed for race day.
In the first lap of the race, the Diablo took the lead from the Corvettes, but 5 laps on, Nobita was complaining of engine problems. Repairs were attempted on lap 9, but Nobita stated that he did not want to drive the underpowered car any longer. Suneo soon took the wheel, but before he even reached the 3rd turn of the oval, the Diablo veered into an SRP-spec Lola, ending the day for Lamborghini's squad.
The troubles experienced by Lamborghini in 1999 just shows how hard it is to win at Daytona.
