Maybe the pig snout Gio? Lol It’s kind of growing on me though after watching a lot of the GT3 races.

Um? I suggest concerned folk do their own googling - M6 allegedly 4897mm, M4 reportedly 4770. 🤷♂️

For the Bentley Continental GT3 you've got the dimensions of the GT3 road car stated, not the GT3 race cars. Bentley makes a Continental road car version called GT3, hence the confusion.
The Bentley Continental GT3 (race car)
has following dimensions:
Length: 4860mm
Width: 2045mm
Height: 1355mm
Wheelbase: 2700mm
So it's actually wider than the M4 GT3 by 5mm, not narrower.

Oopsie me - I used road car stats.
Mind, this topic appears to be a bit of a quagmire - M6 GTLM is 4944mm

First of all, unless you can find tech sheets from the actual Tech inspection, (or publications by the race organization like those in the old LM24 books) dimensions are always prone to interpretation.
Like for width sometimes they measure cars with wing mirrors, sometimes without...makes a difference.
Same goes for overall length, differences between road and race cars can be from measurements taken with or without front splitters and rear wings.
Overall height is even harder to determine as in some classes (like GT3) the ride height (ground clearance in slot speak) is part of their B.o.P and may differ per race.
Then there's the topic of this thread, the BMW M4 GT3 of which allegedly, the front and rear windows are the only body panels that are identical between the road and the race version.
with kind regards
