McLaren has confirmed its plans to bring back the McLaren name to GT sports cars racing. From 2012, McLaren and CRS Racing, an experienced UK-based racing team, will supply and support a limited number of GT3 racing cars based on the McLaren MP4-12C high-performance sports car for European-based privateers. With the 12C’s lightweight one-piece moulded carbon chassis (the ‘MonoCell’), its levels of downforce and aerodynamic performance, the 12C should prove to be a great platform to develop a racing car, as well as visually setting pulses racing at European race tracks. Further details about the McLaren 12C GT3 racing car programme will be announced in 2011.
