After the summer holidays I have a GT3 championship and I have to choose from the list in the image.

I would like to know which one works better.

 

[GRUNZ]

I would suggest the Acura/NSX GT3...but I have not run it yet.
Which motor, motor configurations, and rear tyre are you allowed to use?

 

[P944guy]

What track are you using. If ninco I have no experience,but on my scalextric sport the Sideways Ford GT is fastest by a whisker with the Lamborghini close behind. The only Scaleauto GT I have (Porsche 991.2 GT3 RSR) is much slower than any of the Sideways cars except the generic F1s, which are rockets.

My best bet would go to either the ScaleAuto Dodge Viper for ease of setup (as it has the Slot It EVO6 suspension pickups as opposed to any other ScaleAuto, just makes suspension more efficient) or any of the two Slot It models.
The Sideways Aston Martin is a good choice aswell.
Ford GT is not a GT3, so that's out of the question. Nor is the ScaleAuto HSV or Spyker.
In the end it all depends on what setup you are allowed to use: SW setup or AW setup? Vacform interior or not?
Fixed offsets or not?
Fixed body weight and overall weight or just box stock?

 

[Nolakers]

It all depends on your track. If it has a lot of tight corners, a car with a sorter guide lead, like the Aston or BMW z4, will be more agile and faster. If you have long sweeping corners a long guide lead, like the Dodge, Mclaren, Maserati and Ford, will be more stable, and therefore faster.

 

[LMP]

There’s a lot of good GT3 cars on the market. One I have seen consistently perform at the front is the Sideways Lamborghini. It looks like the new Vantage is following in its footsteps.

 

[r377]

I would say Sideways Lambo or BMW. NSR corvette or AMG.

The slot.it are too heavy

 

[Kevan]

A good comparison was in the recent GT3 proxy in the US/Can

Of the 27 cars entered, only two were anglewinder, the best of which finished 8th overall, all the rest were sidewinders.

If you see the Ford GTE as a GT3 (is it really a GT3 though?) the top 7 at the end of the 10 round proxy was:

Racer Ford GTE
Racer BMW M6
Racer Ford GTE
SlotIt Maserati
Scaleauto Viper
Racer Ford GTE
NSR Corvette C6R

Engine position in AW.

Support slot.it CH60/60B/75

 

[GRUNZ]

Are you allowed to use lightweight interior?

 

[MrFlippant]

Are you allowed to use lightweight interior?

I'm thinking that's what "options light pilot" means.

 

[MALAFAMA]

Yeah. light pilot.

 

[GRUNZ]

Yeah. light pilot.

I thought that this was front lights somehow...anyway, I would go for the Acura NSX: low, agile, superlight weight and interesting chassis.

 

[tamar.nelwan]

Just out of interest...why is the whole NSR range of proper Gt3's excluded from this list? Is it because they can't run the mandatory 0,5mm offset Slot.it pod?

It's just because we're already running Mercedes NSRs.
This is a different championship and so we don't repeat cars...

In club tests I have not seen anyone drive the Acura

You can be the first and beat anyone else ;-)
