What car class are these cars?

[dylpro]

I'll feel stupid for asking this after, but I can't figure out what class these cars are. The cars I am talking about are the following.

Dodge Viper GTS-R Team ORECA
Corvette C5-R
Panoz Esperante
Mercedes CLK-GTR
Ford GT LM Race Car
Ford GT LM Race Car Spec II

And so on. I've read the descriptions on cars and it says they've raced in LeMans 24 and such but these wouldn't match up against the LeMans prototypes. So if I hosted an online lobby what can I call these cars so people know? And what are other cars like these? Thanks!

Gt1.

Gt1.

Ok Thank you. Anyone know of other cars that would be in this class?

GTS-R and Corvette C5R are GT1 class, Panoz is a faster GT1, CLK-LM is an even faster GT1 but would technically a few years later have been an LMPGT due to how technical it was over other GT cars (however Mercedes used their very acrobatic CLR instead).

All race cars in the game with their class.

Oops double post.

I was looking for that thread, search option does not like me too much.

McLaren F1 GTR, CLK GTR, Panoz GTR1, Nissan R390 GT1, Toyota GT-one are all gt1 race cars that used a loophole in regulations that requires only a single road to be produced for homologation, thus allowing near-LMP chassis with Less strict power regulations...

The rest are modern gt1 cars and the ZR1 RM is also in that category along with Pagani Zonda LM Race Car and Gillet Vertigo

Yep, that's pretty much the story of those kind of cars for ya. Although the GT-One in the game is after the LMGTP transformation.

As a note all of the other LM Racecars in the game, save the Honda NSX/S2000, Mazda RX-7/8 and Nissan 350Z are pretty much GT1 spec. The odd ones out are Super GT spec with the S2000 being GT300 and the rest at GT500.

I wrote a post on this once, They are NOT GT1 cars.

The Viper and Corvette are GTS spec cars, the category evolved into GT1.

Yeah I was reading that with the Toyota GT-one the regulation at LeMans said that for a car to enter as a GT1 car it needed a luggage space for a medium sized suitcase. These were regs that had been unchanged since the 50's. Luggage space for a suitcase meant it must be a road car, right

Anyway Toyota was able to say that the car sitting in scrutineering(sp?) had an empty fuel tank and that fuel tank could be considered luggage space for the suitcase

So it was able to enter as a GT1 car . . . and the rules were changed after that.

The toyota was almost entirely unchanged between gt version and lmp version...
