GT4 Emira for 2024 BGT & EGT

 

[PsymonR]

I've been able to find the team's website, says a 2 car entry for the European GT4 series. Will be interesting to see how the Emira does, especially after how it did in Macau last year.

This model won't be sold street-adapted, right? like the porsche gt4 rs for example?

The GT4 Emira is a track-only race car not approved for road use.

Isn’t the price like 250k I would go gt3 at that price range

Not for street, it's a full race car underneath. Aside from the fuel filler window there are only 3 parts that separate any street Emira from this one visually - the wing, splitter, and vented bonnet panel (and wheels / tires). Jubu Performance sells all 3.

Visually? Externally brake calipers and disks too. Many more visible differences inside and in the engine bay.

Is there a race schedule available for the GT4 Emiras? I saw the Macau race and see the European GT4 schedule but those are different teams and series it would seem.

Full entry lists are not yet announced. That will happen between now and the start of the season as the list is updated.

Current commercial realities mean that we can expect to see a stream of announcements right up to beginning of the season as team plans and intentions crystallise.

I’m pretty sure that supercharger and cover is one of the bigger power JUBU upgrades can use if you want a more oem looking unit.

I was at Oulton for qualifying yesterday, car looks great and sounds fabulous.
