Default First pics of the new Jaguar XKR for FIA GT3

Work continues apace at the Buckingham race shop with the build of the first XKR chassis nearing roll cage completion and as Dave said: “The basic all aluminium chassis is already immensely rigid so we’re confident that with the addition of the roll cage it will be amongst the best in class.”

Dave Ward, Project/Team Manager for Apex Motorsport, told lmsr.net today (10-23-06) concerning USA racing, "as for the SCCA (SPEED) GT Championship, yes, we would happily produce cars for that championship if the interest is there."

Nice looking drawings. I am sure the cars will look just as good.
