This will be an all-new car, constructed by Pratt & Miller and, according to the regulations, will be based more upon production pieces that the current GT1 cars have been. Fehan did state that “we will be utilizing the aluminum chassis of the street car. We will be incorporating new advanced technology to integrate the steel cage to the aluminum frame, utilizing friction welding.”
