Post by: TheHotstepper on January 02, 2013, 01:10:00 PM

Between 1999 and 2004, the ACO (Automobile Club de l'Ouest, organizers of the 24 Hours of Le Mans) ran a class called GTS - which is more or less equivalent to modern GT1. This week we are running any of the road car versions in GT5 that had a race car variant that competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the GTS class. Car list is below.

Car: Any from the list below

Wow. Making sure I had the cars, they were not modified, changing oil and doing chassis refresh took up my whole lunch hour.  ^-^


Also, they look nothing like your pictures.  (http://i.imgur.com/LmjyBgx.gif)
