GT2 V8 Vantage

Post

For those with a http://www.dailysportscar.com subscription (and if you don't then I would advise getting one). Check this puppy out. If you don't have a subscription its an Aston Martin Racing (Prodrive) general test car (read: GT2 test car) based on the V8 Vantage cobbled together with various parts from the DBR9 and DBRs9.

What happened to the N24 AMV8?

N24 is to GT4 spec.

Seems odd that AM would run both the GT1 and GT2 teams but if they're thinking of absconding to GT2 then I can understand. It would suck for GT1 but we'd still have their presence in LMES/ALMS.

A GT2 would be a cheaper car for privateers to buy too.
