Jgoh Neutral Newbie May 21, 2003 Share May 21, 2003 SEAT's Shock New GT Racer EAT continues to be pushed as Spain's answer to Alfa Romeo and now it's going racing. This is the Cupra GT - a 500bhp-plus, carbonfibre-bodied racer that will be built to order from the later part of this year - and it made its debut at the Barcelona motor show. It's powered by the 2.7-litre twin-turbo V6 engine last seen in the Audi RS4, mid-mounted and driving the rear wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox. Underneath the swoopy styling themes, which echo the Tango roadster concept and look set to be adopted by all future SEATs, there's a conventional steel tubular chassis. The Cupra GT weighs 1100kg and Seat claims it will accelerate from rest to 62mph (100kph) in 4.2 seconds. Top speed will be dependent on specific track gearing but 180mph is feasible. The huge rear wing and underbody venturi ducts are said to create significant downforce. And the rest of the spec backs up the menacing looks: double-wishbone suspension, 378mm AP Racing brakes, over 500bhp and 442lb ft. Initially the Cupra GT will compete in the Spanish GT series but customer cars will be available for teams contesting GT championships throughout the world from 2004. - Taken from www.evo.co.uk ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
